Élégante Propriété Historique Au Cœur De Taormine

Palazzo Sgroi-Caprino, located in the heart of historic Taormina, is a fine example of Sicilian Baroque architecture, dating from the 17th century, located in the oldest part of Taormina, between the Clock Gate and the Cathedral. This splendid building, carefully renovated in the 1990s, offers panoramic views of Naxos Bay, the Greek Theater and Mount Etna. It has also been published in prestigious architectural journals. The property is distinguished by its three large terraces that provide enchanting views of the sea and the surrounding archaeological ruins. The entrance is from Corso Umberto through a large doorway surrounded by a large baroque arch that acts as a frame, from there via a striking internal staircase in Taormina stone that leads to the second floor one reaches the atrium of the property, where there is a large living room and a dining room adorned with an arch and a fireplace beautifully sculpted and made by Michele Arrigo in fine Syracuse stone. From here, there is access to two balconies: one overlooking the sea and the other, in Baroque style, overlooking the bustling Corso Umberto. The second floor also houses two bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom, a second bathroom, a functional kitchen and a private terrace. A wooden staircase leads to the second floor, where there are additional bedrooms and a large terrace overlooking the old monastery of San Domenico, offering breathtaking views of the sea and the picturesque town center. A living area with a fireplace completes the offerings on this floor, connecting to the large terrace. Enchanted by panoramic views of the bay, this house in the historic center of Taormina is a perfect blend of history and comfort, enhanced by 19th-century elements that enhance its timeless charm. A unique opportunity to experience Sicilian authenticity in one of the most striking corners of the island, both as a luxurious private residence and as a valuable investment.
