Why I Selected It

What makes this home special isn't simply the sea view, but the feeling of openness that comes with it. The three principal rooms all face the water, creating a constant connection with the harbour and filling the apartment with natural light throughout the day.

I also love the balance between historic character and modern comfort. Original cement tiles, timber doors and vaulted ceilings have all been preserved, allowing the apartment to retain its identity without sacrificing everyday practicality.

This home requires no renovation and very little compromise.

Its generous proportions, three en-suite bedrooms and flexible guest suite make it equally suited as a permanent residence, an elegant Mediterranean second home or a place for extended family to gather throughout the year.

The independent guest suite also offers additional flexibility, whether for visiting friends, older children or a private workspace.

Renovation Notes

Premium properties in Ortigia rarely come with this combination of uninterrupted sea views, generous proportions and barrier-free access, and the asking price reflects that rarity.

For buyers seeking a restoration project or an opportunity to personalise every detail, other properties within the Collection may be a better fit. This is a home designed to be enjoyed immediately.
