Short Description
House, 21 rooms, 10 wc, 1334m2, Piazza Armerina.
This extraordinary property is located at the foot of Piazza Armerina, a town renowned for the mosaics of the Villa Romana del Casale, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. In this privileged context, there is an enchanting estate consisting of the beautiful manor house, a characteristic and ancient dependance, old warehouses for agricultural use renovated and convertible, various courtyards and gardens, a majestic ornamental garden and a land of 11 hectares with 3 ruins of pre-existing reconstructible properties.
The main villa, called Casa dei Santi, is spread over a total of 5 levels: a ground floor used as a living area with large representative rooms, a first and second floor for the sleeping areas with 10 bedrooms with panoramic views over the valley and on the wood, an attic floor with sloping ceilings and a large windowed semi-cellar consisting of 4 large rooms.
The interiors are embellished with floors with ancient Santo Stefano di Camastra ceramics and ceilings with precious decorations while an elegant staircase unites the various levels of the villa. The basement, once used for maturing the cheeses produced by the farm and equipped with natural ventilation, is currently used as a storage room for tools and furniture.
The main villa, on one side opens onto a large courtyard with access to the old warehouses now renovated, on the other, it accesses the garden that separates it from the annex, which is the oldest part of the property and is spread over two levels.
The majestic ornamental garden is characterized by a parterre of boxwood, palm trees, pines and enriched by beautiful and elegant fountains. The entire property extends over an 11-hectare lot, a real wood with avenues and paths, some of which lead to 3 old farm buildings, now perfectly rebuildable ruins.
It should be noted that the estate, due to its unique characteristics and the presence of spaces and outbuildings to be restored, which can be converted into additional receptive spaces, represents an exceptional investment opportunity.
