About this property
Apartment in the historic center of the island of Ortigia. Fast WiFi-smart working
The house is nestled between two courtyards, in the heart of the historic center of Syracuse "Ortigia"; in a period building restored in 2012,
Even the interiors have enjoyed a substantial restyling, played on the splendid brightness and warm colors of the wood.
In its 90 sq m this special holiday home can comfortably accommodate 4 people. Using the sofa bed in the lounge also 6, but above all it gives you the experience of living at the center of an exhibition. Every month the exhibitions of some of the most interesting artists of the area will alternate on the walls of the house. An exhibition reserved exclusively for those who live in the home, in an ever new and stimulating environment, having the opportunity to get in touch and get to know the artistic scene of the city of Syracuse and beyond. It should be noted that the fittings are exclusive for the home and for the guests of the home. Access to strangers is not foreseen.

You can also enjoy a wonderful sea view. Let's not forget that Ortigia is an island and it is possible to swim and / or sunbathe on the solarium, or take a boat trip admiring the splendid profile of the city from the sea! It is the historic center of the city of Syracuse and is registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List. It houses most of the wealth of the city:
