A historic building situated in the heart of Modica, beneath the clock tower of the Castello dei Conti and behind the magnificent Cathedral of San Pietro, elegantly nestled among the characteristic stone-paved alleyways of the historic centre.

A property offering remarkable potential and versatility, reflecting the town’s urban development from the era of the ‘Casa Grotta’ through to the early 20th century.

Spacious and complex in its layout, the property comprises three adjoining residential units, some of which are interconnected, totalling 24 rooms, with five separate entrances. The main entrance is located on the ground floor and, via a staircase, leads to the principal floor, which can also be accessed directly from the courtyard through a second entrance. The upper floor houses a further residential unit overlooking the central courtyard and accessed via a separate entrance. The property is completed by a ‘dammuso’ of approximately 312 sq ft and a workshop of approximately 291 sq ft, both typical of the area and featuring vaulted ceilings in reed and plaster.

Characterised by a variety of architectural features typical of the Val di Noto, the property requires complete renovation and is located in the oldest historic quarter of Modica, approximately 120 km from Catania Airport.
