This recently-built home ticks all the boxes for a fabulous Sicilian getaway. With stunning sea views and a peaceful ambiance, along with easy access to the ancient city of Syracuse, it's ideal for guests who want to embrace island life. The stylish living space is bright and airy, with an understated colour palette and comfy furnishings that invite you to make yourself at home. The two separate annexes ensure everyone can enjoy their own peace and quiet, while the outdoor area is ideal for socialising. Fire up the barbeque in the summer kitchen, pop open some prosecco, and gather on the patio for an alfresco feast. And, when the temperature rises, you can plunge into the swimming pool for a refreshing dip under the clear blue sky. It only takes twenty minutes to drive into Syracuse, where you can stroll through the winding streets and soak up the sense of history. If you're craving some vitamin sea, you can hop in the car and head to Lido Varco, just a four-minute drive away. And, adventurous types can explore Parco dell'Etna, home to the famous volcano – it's an hour and ten minutes away by car.
