Gelegen in de schilderachtige omgeving van de heuvels van de Alta Langa van Alba, op minder dan 30 minuten van de hoofdstad van de Langhe, vinden we een charmante woning met een onvergetelijk karakter. Het eigendom bestaat uit een hoofdgebouw dat gebruikt wordt als woning, een bijgebouw en een gereedschapsschuur, en bijna 6 hectare grond. De toegang tot het huis is via een geasfalteerde privéweg. Je komt het huis binnen via een balkon vanwaar je een prachtig panoramisch uitzicht hebt over de gekamde heuvels van de Alta Langa. Als je door het openslaande raam gaat kom je in de keuken, die typische stenen gewelven heeft en een mooie open haard die nog steeds werkt. Als je door een van de oude boogdeuren gaat die in het hele huis aanwezig zijn, bereik je de eetkamer, die nu als studeerkamer wordt gebruikt, en vervolgens een grote woonkamer, ook met een open haard en openslaande deuren die toegang geven tot het panoramische balkon. Op de eerste verdieping zijn er drie slaapkamers, een balkon, twee badkamers en een wasruimte. In de kelder is een werkplaats, een kamer en een houtschuur. Veel details in de architectuur van het huis dragen bij aan een landelijke en magische, bijna sprookjesachtige sfeer. De natuur die deze plek omlijst is vakkundig in harmonie gebracht met de indeling en inrichting - zoals het smeedijzeren tuinhuisje - van de buitenruimtes, die aangenaam zijn door het aangename uitzicht en de perfecte ligging. Het bijgebouw, dat wordt gekenmerkt door zijn stenen muren, bestaat uit een slaapkamer, een woongedeelte met kitchenette en een badkamer. Ook hier geniet je van een spectaculair uitzicht op de heuvels. Want to know more?

Flat in the heart of Ortigia, Syracuse. In the beating heart of Ortigia, nestled among the ancient stones of Syracuse, just 170 metres from the sea, lies a little gem: an elegant, lovingly restored residence. Here, amid the narrow streets that tell of a glorious past, time seems to slow down, accompanied by the sea breeze of the eastern seafront, the salty scent and the distant echo of the voices that enliven the sun-drenched piazzas. As you ascend to the first floor, you are greeted by an entrance hall that introduces you to the rooms, where Sicilian tradition blends harmoniously with contemporary comfort. The floors, renovated in 2019, reflect the warm light filtering through the modern light fittings, while the recent renovation has highlighted the house's ancient soul, respecting its shapes and materials with great sensitivity. The spacious, light-filled kitchen, with its practical utility room, is the heart of the house: a convivial space where the light dances across the surfaces, highlighting the sober, elegant design. Perfect for a slow breakfast in the morning or an intimate dinner after a day among the wonders of the island, it invites conviviality with naturalness and warmth. Continuing on, you enter the first bedroom, a haven of peace and comfort. The generous space houses a comfortable dressing room, while the adjoining bathroom, meticulously designed down to the smallest detail, is transformed into a wellness area where you can relax, immersed in the silence of the Ortigian nights and the timeless charm of the house. The second bedroom, just as welcoming, is ideal for guests or as an additional private space, while retaining the intimate, refined atmosphere that characterises the entire house. A second bathroom, also complete and finely finished, adds functionality and comfort, making each room harmonious and well-organised. Looking out of the window, you can breathe in the soul of the alleyway: the light-coloured stone tells the story of centuries of history, while the discreet passage of the inhabitants accompanies the golden hues of the sunset. To live here is to immerse yourself in the authenticity of Ortigia, to enjoy the magic of a place that, although carefully renovated, retains its original spirit. This house is not just a house: it is an experience to be lived, a fragment of history to be inhabited, a precious refuge in the heart of one of the most fascinating islands in the Mediterranean.

Casa Matteo - GratteriIn the small village of Gratteri, seven kilometres inland and 650m above sea level in the heart of the Madonie Natural Park, Casa Matteo is a must-see for buyers interested in renovating an historic .Magnificent views of the sea and mountainsThe steep terrain and the height of this terraced palazzo building combine to offer unobstructed sea views from the second and third floors. The former even has a balcony that offers you the chance to enjoy the fabulous coastal panorama in the open air.At the moment, the top floor kitchen only has a small window facing north towards the Tyrrhenian Sea, but we think that even a mid-budget renovation project would be able to create a terrace on this level that would give you a bird's eye view of an enormous swathe of northern Sicily.To the rear, Casa Matteo has a view of the surrounding village from the upper floors, which is as charming as the front is dramatic and memorable.Four storeys and over 150M2 of living spaceThe home is divided into six rooms, which could be configured in a variety of ways. Most of these are over 15m2, and the largest space, a second floor pair of rooms connected through a broad archway, offers over 40m2, plus the sea-view balcony at the front.We imagine the finished home with two bedrooms on the lower levels, a beautiful living room-cum-diner on the second floor and an unforgettable kitchen with full-wall glazing opening onto a roof terrace at the top of the property.A renovation challenge that offers a rich rewardAs you'll see from our virtual tour and photography, it is obviously going to be necessary to dedicate time and budget to the historic home. The exact budget will depend on your needs and tastes, as well as how much of the work you're in a position to take care of yourself. We estimate that the final investment will need to be in the region of €110,000 – really, a bargain for the chance to own a piece of Sicilian heritage that's been remodelled to your exact taste.Some features that we think it would be a shame not to incorporate into the final design include a staircase made from the rare and exceptionally durable Billiemi stone, two floors' worth of clay tiles and the antique bread oven which has been built into the kitchen. Take a tour and let your imagination start to work on this fascinating restoration project!For a full description of the property please visit our website Want to know more?
