Scicli, minimalism in the heart of the historic center

We are in the historic center of Scicli, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where among medieval columns and porches stand the baroque domes of the cathedral. Among oleanders, olive trees and flowers, the scent of the bakery 50 meters away wakes us up in the morning. Here the specialty is the so-called “Testa di Turco”, at least double the size of the average, which crumbles into a thousand crunchy and delicate layers of puffy pasta that hide a good dose of cream from the citrus aftertaste.

This is the aura of the property below presented, which is spread over a portion of an ancient building and is configured as the ideal for the creation of a reality where, in addition to the scent of the bakery, you can breathe air of modernity, baroque and minimalism.

You can think of a holiday home for yourself or for others, for guests or to make income, but also for a primary residence. Why not? Because at the end of the day the location, the main factor of each property, also here it has the upper hand but should not be neglected all the other features.

It must be designed as a sort of terraced house, well restored, with parts where, for example, ancient bricks and an old building spring out of the stucco specially, other interesting details such as the medieval arch in the living area, all elements and fine architectural details.

Sure, if on one side the house has all some particular elements, on the other there is a final touch to give it its own personality. As an idea, here you could think of how to use the contrast between ancient stone and stucco, installing light wood shelves, decorated with fatty or tropical plants, a beautiful monster for example, perhaps putting some light as can be seen in some modern chic rooms where outdoor bulbs are very popular, the aluminum element in black color, going to work then on the balance of the colors of the house.

Let’s imagine it in the center of Scicli, both as ours and as a B&B: a living area with a beautiful sofa, the kitchen with a small counter, and the bathroom / laundry room. On the first floor the bedroom, the second bathroom with shower and finally the mezzanine with the exposed roof to be used according to your style.

Surely the potential is there, they are at an affordable price, and are located in the center of Scicli, where there is a splendid portion of the building which only your personal touch is missing.
