PALMENTO SAN LORENZO 6

Sicilia - Siracusa - NOTO

Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (lease only). CIR CODE: 19089013C234275 This delightful house is located in a privileged geographical position, immersed in the beauty of the southeastern coast of Sicily. The proximity to Noto, just minutes away, offers easy access to one of the island's Baroque gems, known for its historic centre declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The presence of beaches nearby will allow sea lovers to enjoy breathtaking coastal landscapes. The property is located between the Vendicari Nature Reserve and Marzamemi, and a 10-minute walk will take you to the beach. The residence, housed in an original renovated palmento, is now a charming and welcoming retreat that has preserved its authentic features. The recent restoration realised with biolime and reclaimed local stones fits perfectly into this context, combining tradition and sustainability. The garden, left in its most natural form and enriched with fruit trees, offers a serene and lush space. A large outdoor table, shaded by a canopy, allows guests to enjoy meals in a pleasant setting. The swimming pool helps cool off during the hottest days, while an outdoor sitting area is the perfect place to relax outdoors. The rooms are enriched by salvaged furniture carefully restored by the owner, who has chosen a delicate colour palette, mainly inspired by white stone, creating a tranquil and refined atmosphere in the intimate living room, in the niches of the original palmento, which add a touch of historic character, and in the delightful bedrooms (Palmento = literally a place where grapes are pressed or where wheat is milled). Visits to Modica, Ragusa and Scicli will add a prestigious cultural note to your stay. These towns, with their extraordinary Baroque heritage, offer a fascinating blend of architecture, history and local traditions. The cultural richness of these locations combines with an extraordinary natural environment, creating an ideal setting for those who love to explore the history and nature of this special part of Sicily.

Interior:

The 150 sq m, single-floor house is partially air conditioned. The main entrance leads directly to the living room with two niches and a raised area, typical of palmenti. The cosy and fully-equipped kitchen is completed by the dining area, forming a single convivial and informal room. Two adjacent bedrooms share a bathroom with shower, where you will also find the washing machine. The third bedroom, next to the living room, has an ensuite bathroom with shower and direct access to the garden at the back of the house.

Park:

The 7000 sq m property is immersed in a natural environment characterised mainly by cultivations of vines, while the area surrounding the house is adorned with fruit trees and flowering hedges that add a touch of lush beauty. Near the swimming pool, a secluded area contains a sitting and dining area. Also in the garden, a large dining table, set under a lovely canopy, is the ideal place for outdoor meals. From the entrance gate, a 200 m unpaved drive leads to the 3-car parking area. Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.

Swimming Pool:

The swimming pool is located on the same level as the house which is just a couple of metres away and can be reached in a few steps from the French windows of the living area. Measuring 3.20 x 4.60 m, with a depth of 1.10 m, the pool has chlorine purification and Roman steps for access to the water. Bordered in light-coloured local stone in perfect harmony with the rest of the house, the surrounding sunbathing area is equipped with sunbeds and deckchairs to create a perfect relaxation area. Nearby is an outdoor hot and cold-water shower. Thanks to both internal and external lighting, the pool can also be used at night. It will be available all year.
