Sicily off the beaten path — a villa with a pool in the heart of the Hyblaean hills

In Canicattini Bagni, a small town in eastern Sicily that still preserves the authentic character of Sicilian life, far from usual tourist routes and increasingly gentrified destinations, this villa invites you to rediscover the pleasure of a slower life pace, through the days spent outdoors, convivial gatherings and the charm of the area rich in history, traditions and natural beauty.

Here, a home is more than just a place to stay; it is the space to be fully enjoyed, where you can embrace the simple pleasures of life. Morning coffee on the veranda, family lunches in the shade, long days by the pool and evenings spent with friends: this is the lifestyle the property offers to those seeking a personal retreat in Sicily, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The spacious outdoor areas have been thoughtfully arranged to create a proper living space. Set within a Mediterranean garden, the property features a large swimming pool, ample verandas and several areas dedicated to dining and relaxation, creating a seamless connection between the house and the garden.

Every space encourages conviviality while also offering secluded corners in which to enjoy moments of tranquillity and make the most of Sicily’s mild climate for much of the year.

The considerable, versatile interiors are designed to accommodate a family and guests in comfort and privacy.

The ground floor features a large living area, ideal for gathering and spending time together, complemented by a billiard room that provides an additional space for relaxation and socialising. A spacious kitchen and a further living area complete this level. Two bathrooms on the ground floor ensure practicality and convenience, even when the villa is shared by several guests.

Upstairs, there are three generously sized bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe.

The thoughtful layout of both the indoor and outdoor spaces makes this property particularly well suited to extended stays, family holidays and memorable time spent with friends.

The villa is currently used as an accommodation business, offering the opportunity to combine personal use with the possibility of continuing its hospitality activities, according to the owner’s needs and preferred management arrangements.
