Overview
Scopello opens its heavenly gates with an opulent beauty, a blend of hills, sea, countryside. An immense wildlife reserve I can’t take my eyes off. The Mediterranean Sea bewitches my senses while the sun smiles at me. “Welcome to Scopello…” I hear someone whisper, the voice of the Mermaids, keeping an eye on this charming corner.
Property details
The property stands at the edge of the Zingaro wildlife nature reserve, at walking distance from Scopello's unspoilt sea. The villa, initially an old ruin, is completely refurbished thanks to the full commitment of its owner. An old centenarian carob tree is the king of the garden and stands just in front of the main entrance. The front garden includes an elegantly furnished outdoor space with sofas and an hammock, a big outer table is in front of a cosy swimming pool for hot summer days. The villa stands on one floor. Inside, an ample living room painted in warm colours and brighten up by the kitchen’s ceramics, create such a perfect harmony, emphasized by a careful attention for details. An entire wall is made of stone with a tuff arch. Tuff is made of volcanic ash, a typical garment of the so called “Arte povera” style originating in Italy in the late ‘60s. a ‘50s style ivory “Smeg” fridge complete the kitchen area.
The windows of the property all come with mosquito nets. A wide home tools pantry room is available too with a selected wine collection of the best wines, a mini cellar, with a set of red, white wines and whisky glasses. A classic style bathroom with a laundry corner complete the living area. The sleeping area consists of five double and one twin bedroom which fully reflect the classic-style of the property. The bathrooms are very comfortable and equipped with showers.

The property is located in one of the most sea side exclusive Western Sicily areas, the Zingaro Nature Reserve, which boasts a pristine and wild scenery as well as a splendid sea. The property has a private walking path access to the lovely beach of the Reserve (500mt), however we suggest the use of a car especially if travelling with children.
