luxury apartment for sale Ragusa, Italy

This prestigious flat is located on the piano nobile of a historical 18th-century palace, characterised by its original late Baroque elements, which took on its current appearance following the transformations and extensions begun in 1870. The building is characterised by the uniqueness of the decorations on each vault, which convey a large part of the history of this valuable property. The main room, known as the Salone dei Casati, was once the heart of palace life due to its size and historical relevance, adorned in the vault with the coats of arms of the ancient families who lived within these walls. Among Barons, Princes, Dukes and Marquises, each emblem evokes the splendour of the most important families of the province. The living room leads to a large balcony, ideal for sipping a cool glass of wine overlooking Piazza Italia, once called Piazza Fontana. Completing the property there are five bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, a large room - ideal for creating a spacious kitchen area adjacent to the main living room - and two further bathrooms at the service of the living area. The Liberty-style decorations, widely diffused in the courtyard environment, are reflected in the soft lines and floral patterns; green, dominant in the decorative details, is also reflected in the upholstery and furnishings, creating an atmosphere of elegance and refinement. The property is located in the heart of the historical centre of Scicli, about 6 km away from the sea, 50 km from Comiso ‘Pio La Torre' airport and 132 km from Catania ‘Fontanarossa' airport.
