The epitome of serene, this seafront home is just steps from the soft white sands of Fontane Bianche. It sits on Sicily's south coast and overlooks the endless, two-tone blue of the horizon gliding over the Mediterranean Sea. It's delightfully peaceful, tucked away behind pruned-to-perfection hedges and a lush garden, promising privacy. Yet despite feeling completely secluded, it's well-connected to the ancient cities of Syracuse and Noto, only twenty-five minutes away by car. We love the interior's minimalist design aesthetic. Cloaked entirely in white, its contemporary and stylish decor is complemented by heaps of natural light, exuding coastal calm and creating a free-flowing ambience primed for relaxation. There are all the bells and whistles here for a want-for-nothing stay, including a fully equipped kitchen, though the real highlight is undoubtedly the outdoor space. An expansive terrace cocoons the interior, beckonIng you to unwind in the splendour of your surroundings. After a restful slumber, step outside to sip your coffee face-to-face with breathtaking sea views before strolling down to the beach for a morning swim. Between adventures, simmer down with a glass of wine in the jacuzzi and come sunset, fire up the barbecue for an alfresco feast.
