In a medieval neighborhood at the foot of the mountain of fire, there is this splendid Baglio in lava stone dating back to the 18th century. The ancient residence, full of charm, develops around the internal courtyard in the center of which there is an ancient well, raised, surrounded by two columns. It's composed of the main house with a living room, a large Sicilian masonry kitchen, a double bedroom, a single bedroom, a bathroom and the laundry; there are four suites, all autonomous and equipped with bathrooms: - Alcova Suite, with the wonderful bedroom with cross vault, fireplace and alcove with double bed, single bedroom, large living room, Sicilian built-in kitchen and bathroom; the suite is embellished with original frescoes on the upper doors and decorated walls. - Polifemo Suite renovated in a modern style, consisting of a bedroom with bathroom, walk-in closet, large living room with kitchenette and another bathroom with shower. - Ulisse Suite also renovated in a modern style, consisting of a large living room with kitchenette, bedroom and bathroom with shower. - Etna Suite spread over two levels, ground floor with large living-dining area, kitchen, bathroom with tub, mezzanine with double bed and wardrobe. This suite, unlike the others which all overlook the internal courtyard, has its own private patio. The baglio, restored respecting its original layout, is surrounded by a wonderful and luxuriant garden with native plants, bushes and essences; here, beyond ancient gates and a boundary wall opened by an arch, one can find the swimming pool bordered in lava stone, with an area equipped with deckchairs and sunbeds, changing room, bathroom and outdoor shower. The library, with a desk and sofas for reading, has been created in the ancient millstone, with lava stone basins for wine pressing . An ancient and monumental oil mill stands in the external area that disengages the Polifemo library and suite. The property includes a parking area with seven parking spaces. Its position in the heart of a historic Etna town makes it special because, enclosed between its ancient walls and its garden, it enjoys privacy and tranquility, despite being in a small urban center equipped with every service. It is 20 minutes from Catania and 40 from Taormina.
