Palmento San Lorenzo 6

Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled amid vineyards and fruit trees in the heart of southeastern Sicily, Palmento San Lorenzo is a remarkable vacation rental that invites you to experience the authentic character of rural Italy. Situated close to Noto, this thoughtfully restored property occupies a former grape press, known locally as a palmento, and offers a rare combination of historical architecture and contemporary comfort. The original stone building retains its distinctive structural features, including traditional niches and raised areas that speak to its agricultural heritage, while the interiors have been furnished with salvaged antique pieces carefully restored by the owner. Spanning approximately 150 square metres across a single floor, the property provides a relaxed and informal setting ideal for those seeking a genuine connection with the Sicilian landscape. The expansive 7,000 square metre grounds ensure ample privacy, and a gravel track of 200 metres leads from the entrance gate to a dedicated parking area accommodating up to 3 cars. Wireless internet connectivity is available throughout the property, and the generous yard, framed by vineyards, fruit trees, and natural hedging, has been landscaped to preserve the site's original rural character.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces at Palmento San Lorenzo are as thoughtfully conceived as the interiors, offering a series of distinct areas designed for relaxation and al fresco living. A large outdoor dining table positioned beneath a canopy beside the house provides a shaded and convivial setting for meals, while a second seating and dining area is located closer to the pool, allowing you to enjoy the surroundings from different vantage points throughout the day. The non-heated pool is just a few steps from the house and is directly accessible from the living area via French doors. Rectangular in shape and measuring 3.20 x 4.60 metres with a depth of 1.10 metres, it is lined in pale stone and features chlorine purification and Roman steps for easy entry. Both internal and external lighting ensure the pool can be enjoyed into the evening, and it remains open all year round. A dedicated sunbathing area with sunbeds and deckchairs surrounds the pool, complemented by an outdoor shower with hot and cold water. Please note that the property photographs were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ from what you observe upon arrival.

Unit Layout

Palmento San Lorenzo is configured to comfortably accommodate up to 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all arranged on a single ground floor level. The entrance opens directly into a characterful living room featuring 2 niches and a raised area, both of which are typical architectural elements of traditional palmenti. The kitchen is laid out in an open-plan arrangement connected to the dining area, creating a sociable and functional heart to the home. 2 of the double bedrooms share a well-appointed bathroom fitted with a shower and a washing machine, while the third double bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom with shower and enjoys direct access to the rear garden, offering an added sense of privacy and connection to the outdoors. Air conditioning is available in the bedrooms as well as in the main living areas, ensuring comfort throughout the warmer months.

A washing machine is located in the shared bathroom, providing practical convenience for longer stays.
