Added to these is the original turret which leads to a splendid private terrace, where you can enjoy the view and the silence. The villa has two driveways that lead to two internal courtyards with a suggestive well. Crossing the entrance gate we are welcomed by a large stone staircase that leads to the main floor. which houses various reception rooms, overlooking the terraces, bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen. The stone walls and high roofs give the visitor all the charm of these places which seem to evoke snapshots of a fascinating and melancholy past. They accompany the step, forming splendid carpets, traditional Sicilian cement tiles, perfectly harmonized with the elegant frescoed vaults. On the ground floor you can admire the ancient and original tools for the winemaking process. The ancient press, the old room intended for the millstone and the millstone, with its lava stone arches, the wine pressing tank and the cellar. Details which, added to the functional layout of the rooms, make this property irresistible for those looking for a prestigious home with large outdoor spaces.

The land, mainly cultivated as a lemon grove, has an irrigation system, well (capacity 2 liters per second) and tool storage.

The property requires a complete renovation, from systems to fixtures but with the great opportunity to make improvements to your taste and size. It is suitable not only for luxury homes, but also for accommodation facilities such as B&Bs, farmhouses, restaurants or anything else relevant to tourism/accommodation development. The large outdoor space can be equipped with a swimming pool according to your preferences.
