Description from owner
Description
Two bedroomed renovated first floor apartment situated in Ortigia, the centro historica of Siracusa. The apartment overlooks the Ionian Sea and has stunning sea views, especially when the sun rises. The apartment is accessed through double wrought iron gates which lock automatically, or through a single wrought iron gate on the Lungomare side. The inside courtyard has also been renovated with new flooring with integral lighting and switches on the inside for the automatic gates. The apartment is set out on one floor with the front door leading straight into the kitchen/dining area and the lounge and a small corridor on the left, leading to both bedrooms. There are two air conditioning units used for heating in the winter. The terrace overlooks the internal courtyard and is accessible through double patio doors direct from the kitchen or from the front door. Nearby are local shops, designer shops and the amazing daily fish market. The market also sells local cheeses, breads, olives, fruit and vegetables, no need to eat breakfast before as there are always samples on offer. It is situated in an ideal position for exploring Sicily with Mount Etna and Taormina to the North and beautiful beaches and archaeology sites to the South. Also nearby is Caltigirone for wonderful ceramics, Piazza Armerina the roman villa with amazing mozaic floors and both Noto and Ragusa. The rocks are just a short walk away where you can both swim and sunbathe. Ortigia is best explored on foot as each turn takes you through alleyways which open up to amazing sights. Beautiful little churches, bars, shops, patios in flower, baroque buildings and sleeping cats laying in the sun. There are so many wonderful historic sites in Ortigia, Archimedes Square, Aretusa, The Duomo and the nearby Catacombs and Papyrus museum.
