House of Character in Modica (Sicily)

About this property

A rare opportunity to acquire a series of four unconverted, historic and evocative buildings set in Modica Bassa—each perfectly suited for transformation into charming holiday homes. The first unit, with direct access from street level, is a distinctive structure set within a rock-hewn cave. Benefiting from natural light from the street, it offers excellent potential for conversion into a welcoming studio apartment with a well-proportioned double bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom. This property also includes an independent one-car garage. The remaining three units are reached via a rock-carved staircase and passageway overlooking the street below, with one of the units also enjoying secondary access onto Via Fontana. The first of these three units consists of two spacious rooms, offering an ideal layout for a one-bedroom studio apartment. The second unit, situated directly above the first, comprises three rooms and features a traditional Modican oven, adding historic character and charm. The third unit offers two bright, generously sized rooms with access to a small garden, along with an additional room housing another traditional Modican oven. Each of these units is well suited to conversion into atmospheric holiday studio apartments. Completing the property are two additional caves with direct access from Via Macello Nuova, which may be used for storage or adapted for other purpose.
