Luxury Masseria In Sicily

We present a luxury property in Sicily, located in the renowned Val di Noto, an ancient Sicilian masseria from the nineteenth century that has been revitalized. This exclusive property features a private pool and over five hectares of well-fenced land with dry stone walls, resulting from a careful and skilled renovation of multiple rural buildings, including storage warehouses, animal shelters, the sharecropper’s house, and that of the landowners present during the harvest season; all of this has been restored thanks to a functional project employing the best local craftsmen.
Today, these expertly renovated buildings have been transformed into a hospitality structure with several independent units, including a reception area where the owners also reside.
This hospitality facility consists of a total of eight semi-independent accommodations, each with an en-suite bathroom and shared dining areas. Some accommodations are spread over multiple levels with loft areas, as is the case with the owners’ accommodation, which also features a terraced outdoor patio. The finishes in all the spaces are very meticulous, and the renovation utilized what are considered humble construction elements such as stone, wood, and iron, as these materials are more readily available in these areas, complemented by particular ceramics, terracotta inserts, and other materials shaped by the hands of true artisan masters. Every element seems perfectly placed, and the current owners have managed to imbue this luxurious Sicilian property with character and soul. Walking through this property, one can sense the absolute tranquility typical of these charming countryside locations, enhanced by a mild climate that is dry in winter and well-ventilated in summer: a true paradise, an oasis among the greenery of English gardens, ornamental trees, and centuries-old fruit trees typical of these areas, among which stands out a centuries-old walnut tree over two hundred years old, beautifully surrounded by the iconic olive trees considered masterpieces of nature.
Among the multitude of features vying for attention, there is undoubtedly the pool with a sunbathing area, which represents the cherry on top of this property, where one can immerse themselves and further enjoy the absolute tranquility of this meticulously maintained place.
This luxurious Sicilian property is a clear example of excellent redevelopment of rural buildings in the Val di Noto in Sicily, converted into residences for private or hospitality use, like the one we are proposing for sale. This property can once again change its intended use and become a private residential dwelling. The property is equipped with efficient systems that comply with all regulations, both from an energy perspective and for general management, including many amenities such as an irrigation system with two dedicated storage tanks totaling over 22,000 liters, as well as power generators, generator sets, solar panels, and more.
This territory is rich in spring waters and large aquifers that ensure a constant and unlimited water supply in all seasons. A concrete testament to this is the presence of a picturesque ancient watermill still in operation, where one can taste typical dishes of these places.
The Ibleo territory, which includes the Val di Noto, is characterized by stunning landscapes, unspoiled scenery among Mediterranean vegetation and stone quarries, as well as important archaeological sites, not to mention the proximity to the towns of Noto, the capital of Baroque style, and Palazzolo Acreide, as well as the ancient rock settlement of Pantalica, and the city of Syracuse with the island of Ortigia: one of the most beautiful historic centers in Italy. In the southeast of Sicily, the highest number of UNESCO World Heritage sites in Italy is concentrated, all rightfully included in the UNESCO list.
