There’s no doubt this countryside villa oozes Sicilian charm with its traditional brick façade and olive and carob tree border. Located next to the historic town of Modica, this home provides access to the city’s Baroque cultural sites and the chocolatiers that Modica is best known for. There’s a unique blend of modernity here - with a combination of authentic character and contemporary comfort you’ll feel instantly at home. We love the original beamed ceilings, period wood furnishings, local tiled floors paired with metal surfaces and sleek light fittings. Start your morning with an Italian espresso on the terrace, and later head to the alfresco dining area to enjoy views of the Mediterranean garden with a light lunch. Spend leisurely days by the freeform pool, and when the sun gets too strong seek shade inside, where the calm-hued interior provides a cool refuge. In the evening, share dinner on the stunning wooden table with the french doors open, accompanied by a good glass of vintage. Your home is located in an idyllic area for cultural exploration. Enjoy a day in Modica, one of UNESCO’s heritage sites, to explore the Chiesa di San Giovanni Evangelista and Church of San Pietro, a twenty-minute drive from your home. You can’t visit this city without discovering the Cioccolato di Modica – stop in at the Chocolate Museum where you can learn about its history as well as admire the chocolate sculptures.
