Full Description


Set in the heart of south-eastern Sicily, in a central location convenient to all main amenities, lies this extraordinary historic residence—a wing comprising roughly half of a magnificent ancient noble villa, enveloped in a private park of approximately 3 hectares (7.4 acres).

Spanning a generous total footprint of around 600 sq m (6,458 sq ft), the property retains all the intact charm and elegance characteristic of Sicilian aristocratic manors.

Ground Floor
Originally dedicated to the family's daily living spaces, the ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hall, a dining room, a spacious eat-in kitchen, and a practical bathroom/laundry room. From this level, a grand pitch-stone (pietra pece) staircase ascends to the residence's main reception level.

Piano Nobile (Main Floor)
The piano nobile opens onto an elegant distribution loggia that guides you into the formal reception spaces: three expansive, sun-filled salons defined by soaring ceiling heights and extraordinary original decorative elements. This floor also includes two bedrooms—one featuring an evocative period alcove and an en-suite bathroom—along with a second bathroom serving the night area.

Architectural Details
The interiors showcase exquisite period details testifying to the prestige of the founding family. Of particular note are the frescoed vaulted ceilings on the main floor, dominated by a striking shade of blue—a pigment historically reserved for the highest nobility as a symbol of wealth and social rank. This rare decorative feature endows the spaces with an atmosphere of exceptional refinement.

Upper Floor
A second staircase, crafted from traditional Modica stone, leads to the top level. Here, two additional rooms—originally used as staff quarters—can easily be repurposed into guest bedrooms, private studies, art studios, or flexible living spaces.

Original Finishes
The villa preserves much of its original craftsmanship, including historic cementine floor tiles on the ground floor, exquisite hand-painted ceramic tiles gracing the piano nobile, and traditional flooring throughout the top level.

Grounds & Location
Outside, the vast 3-hectare park creates a setting of rare beauty, filled with mature trees, expansive lawned areas, and picturesque vistas that highlight the estate's exclusivity. Situated within the town itself, the property offers immediate access to all services while maintaining total privacy and tranquility.

Transport & Heritage
Strategically located, the residence is approximately 30 minutes from Comiso Airport and one hour from Catania International Airport. It is officially featured along the prestigious "Ville del Gattopardo" ("The Leopard" Villas) heritage route of Caltagirone—making it an exceptional opportunity either as a trophy private residence or a luxury boutique hospitality project.
