There is also the option to acquire an extra hectare of land or a smaller area, depending on the buyer’s needs. The old farmhouse, spread over two levels with views of Mount Etna, is located at the main crossroads of the seaside areas of Syracuse. It is nestled in an organic lemon grove that gently blends into the landscape of Archimedes’ city, between the Ciane River Reserve, the turquoise sea of the Plemmirio Marine Protected Area, and the Iblei Mountains. It is said that in the 1800s, on these fertile lands, botanist Giuseppe Bianca, the family’s great-great-grandfather, experimented for twenty years with varieties of almond, carob, vine, orange, mandarin, and olive. During World War II, on July 9, 1943, eight British special airborne forces soldiers found ”refreshment” in the wine barrels of the cellar during Operation ”Ladbroke.” The farmhouse is still inhabited by the owner/seller. Since 1949, the family business has produced organic lemons of the Femminello Siracusano IGP variety on site.
