Baglio Contrada Busitta, Modica

W-02TVUX - In the heart of the picturesque countryside that unfolds from Modica towards the coast of Pozzallo, between rolling hills and a sea that fades into the horizon, stands a noble residence that embodies the majesty of the past. This former convent, with roots that date back to the 1600s and a fascinating restoration in the 1800s, is a living testimony to the history and beauty that only noble homes can offer. The building stands out imposingly, its architecture is a combination of styles, a fusion of eras. When you walk through the ancient door and enter the internal courtyard, you find yourself in a world apart. In the courtyard there are stables, stables, the homes of the farmers who once presided over the estate, as well as the small church. The noble residence stands on two levels. A large vestibule leads into the large and scenic staircase. On the first floor we find the typical spatial layout of the 19th century with the "string of rooms" that follow one another, including reception rooms, sitting rooms, studies and bedrooms. The frescoed ceilings and period floors create an atmosphere of great elegance. All the rooms are embellished with views that open onto the large terraces. From here, the view extends over the surrounding countryside, offering enchanting panoramas of green fields, olive groves and the sea that stands out in the distance, the ideal place to spend relaxing moments outdoors. Outside, a large garden and a fenced vegetable patch surround the property. It is possible with a separate purchase to also acquire 17 hectares of land with olive grove and orchard as well as further blocks of flats that were part of the estate. This place is a living testimony to the history of Sicily, where the grandeur of the past merges with the beauty of the territory, creating a unique and unforgettable experience.
