Description
The main façade is distinguished by the use of rustication, which lends solemnity and harmony to the façade. Inside, the main floor has retained its original layout, with frescoes, stuccoes, gilding, tapestries and period furnishings. The building is spread over several levels connected by a spectacular three-flight staircase, richly decorated in neoclassical-Renaissance style and designed to highlight the family's wealth and impress guests. The rooms include numerous bedrooms, storage rooms, a cellar and, on the main floor, four particularly prestigious rooms: the Hall of Mirrors or Ballroom, with decorations in pure gold and glitter, an Art Nouveau ceiling and Rococo motifs depicting the birth and triumph of Venus or Flora; the Hall of Arts; the Music Room; and the Dining Room. All are decorated using the same technique, but with different subjects inspired by classical mythology. The bedroom also features a precious fresco on the ceiling depicting the allegory of sleep. The main floor has already been renovated and is ready to move into, the ground floor only needs some work, while the basement and second floor require more substantial work, offering the possibility of transforming the property into a prestigious accommodation facility.
Bright and with both pedestrian and vehicular access, the building has a lift, parking space and garage, and enjoys a strategic location just 15 minutes from Catania airport and about 10 minutes from the beaches and coast.
