We walk through the districts of the Ispica countryside, where blades of grass lie prone to the constant blowing of the sea breeze, laden with swollen dewdrops in which the sun is reflected in the turquoise sky. The old farmhouse immediately evokes the idea of frugality, rusticity and the echo of a distant yet so incredibly familiar era. It is a marvel of absolute calm, in an infinite field, a reality in which one can laugh, joke, cry and love without anyone knowing. In other words, it is a place we could truly call our own. Today, however, the property is in a state of neglect, the garden is uncultivated and in need of replacement. But, equipped with the right vision, we immediately identify the main concept: do we salvage the two small houses that are there or do we demolish everything and salvage the volume? Either way, the imagination has a lot to feed on. A modern, contemporary villa in a minimalist style as well as a combination of tradition and modernity? A swimming pool or jacuzzi? Or a volleyball net hung between a palm and an oak tree? Or solar panels on a canopy to protect the car? A beautiful colonnade with climbing plants or an orchard, an olive grove, a citrus grove or... the ideas are endless, just like the potential of this rustic cottage nestled in its gigantic grounds that seem to be a fiefdom worthy of a medieval noble vassal. And so the proposal takes shape: a large plot of land of more than 12,000 square metres plus two buildings, the larger of which is partly used as a dwelling with a living area, two bedrooms, bathroom and storeroom, with a warehouse alongside, while the second building, of more modest dimensions, was certainly once used as an agricultural warehouse. Today we can think either of recovering the volume, or of renovating the existing buildings, changing or retaining, according to need, their function, for our first home, for holidays or as a property to be rented out to the delight of many tourists.

We are in the historic center of Scicli, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where among medieval columns and porches stand the baroque domes of the cathedral. Among oleanders, olive trees and flowers, the scent of the bakery 50 meters away wakes us up in the morning. Here the specialty is the so-called "Testa di Turco", at least double the size of the average, which crumbles into a thousand crunchy and delicate layers of puffy pasta that hide a good dose of cream from the citrus aftertaste. This is the aura of the property below presented, which is spread over a portion of an ancient building and is configured as the ideal for the creation of a reality where, in addition to the scent of the bakery, you can breathe air of modernity, baroque and minimalism. You can think of a holiday home for yourself or for others, for guests or to make income, but also for a primary residence. Why not? Because at the end of the day the location, the main factor of each property, also here it has the upper hand but should not be neglected all the other features. It must be designed as a sort of terraced house, well restored, with parts where, for example, ancient bricks and an old building spring out of the stucco specially, other interesting details such as the medieval arch in the living area, all elements and fine architectural details. Sure, if on one side the house has all some particular elements, on the other there is a final touch to give it its own personality. As an idea, here you could think of how to use the contrast between ancient stone and stucco, installing light wood shelves, decorated with fatty or tropical plants, a beautiful monster for example, perhaps putting some light as can be seen in some modern chic rooms where outdoor bulbs are very popular, the aluminum element in black color, going to work then on the balance of the colors of the house. Let's imagine it in the center of Scicli, both as ours and as a B&B: a living area with a beautiful sofa, the kitchen with a small counter, and the bathroom / laundry room. On the first floor the bedroom, the second bathroom with shower and finally the mezzanine with the exposed roof to be used according to your style. Surely the potential is there, they are at an affordable price, and are located in the center of Scicli, where there is a splendid portion of the building which only your personal touch is missing.

After leaving the splendid Ligurian sea behind us, we venture through the bright green shades of the hinterland, until we reach the splendid natural setting of the Val di Vara where we find the municipality of Zignago. The ancient villages of the scattered municipality of Zignago, nestled on the profile of its mountains or collected in small and protected plains, tell us about its medieval history and preserve magnificent examples of rural architecture which has kept the balance of the natural landscape intact with the works of the 'man. This town has ancient roots that date back to the Copper Age, as demonstrated by an anthropomorphic stele statue found at the end of the 19th century. We are in the province of La Spezia in Liguria in a place that has remained almost uncontaminated, surrounded by low mountains that are just over a thousand meters high, an ideal place to spend time in total relaxation and follow various and evocative hiking itineraries that have as their main axis a stage of the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri. Our proposal today is an apartment which with its accessories occupies part of the first two floors in a small house with characteristic bright red shutters. The external staircase that insinuates itself between the building and the garden of approximately 400 m2, all terraced, leads us to the entrance of the apartment, through a characteristic covered terrace. The generously sized apartment is developed on one floor and is composed of a living area with an open kitchen in the central part of the house and facing south, with the two double bedrooms located respectively to the east and west. The main or master, as you prefer, has a private bathroom with large shower and boasts a beautiful balcony overlooking the valley from which you can admire the nearby green mountains. On the opposite side of the apartment there is the second bathroom, of large dimensions, with window and a large and welcoming bathtub, the second large double bedroom and the very practical closet. Internally everything is in perfect condition, the result of a recent renovation, the beautiful Palladian floors, the mirrored wooden doors and the double glazed wooden windows and doors stand out. In this natural context the highlight is certainly the garden, the walls create flat and perfectly exploitable terraces, which allow us to dedicate the spaces with various uses, a relaxation area with external hydromassage, the vegetable garden, the barbecue area or whatever we like it. We cannot forget the practical external shed behind the house, the large cellar and the spacious garage which can accommodate two cars in addition to the inevitable bikes. It's up to you whether it's a holiday apartment or a permanent home, but take the time for a visit to restore your soul and mind in this pleasant place.

Have you ever read "the secret garden"? I love the moment when Mary discovers the wooden door and the wonderful place that hides behind it. Today we will give you a similar experience. In Scicli, the most beautiful and photographed building is the Benevento palace. In one side of this splendid building, a door leads us into our secret garden and just as in the story time and nature have tried to recover their space. Within this courtyard, we imagine around the fifties, a small independent house was built and could now become your splendid home. Stand in front of the front door and close your eyes, because this property should be seen with heart and good taste. On the ground floor you can imagine how your spacious living area will transform. The ideal would be to find an antique door, in raw wood simply cleaned and cared for, where you can access a large kitchen with rope shades typical of the buildings of the center of Scicli, the living area furnished in Boho chic style with a large white corner sofa. In this floor we find the first of the two bathrooms of the house with small ancient Sicilian tiles. An important role should be reserved for the redevelopment of the square that can maintain part of the old cobblestones and the remaining a beautiful garden with lamps in the driveway and spotlights that highlight the ancient door and the stone wall. I would highlight the internal staircase that leads to the upper floor with a stone wall exposed by making vertical openings to let the natural light pass through them. The sleeping area should be reviewed so that the master bedroom has an exit to the small terrace between the roof tiles. Here we will be able to place a whirlpool where you can spend intimate moments protected by a wisteria pergola, while the bed takes the coolness from the balcony to which we will have recaptured the ancient splendor. The second bathroom and a second bedroom or study will complete the floor. But this is what I "saw" closing my eyes, and you? How fantastic have you decided to transform this pearl? I can't wait to go back and see what you've accomplished.

In the Piedmontese plains of the province of Alessandria, just 7 kilometers from Casale Monferrato, we find Frassineto Po, a small but charming town that can now be considered part of Casale's outskirts. Frassineto Po retains the unique character of a rural environment, enriched by the Piedmontese countryside. It is known for its excellent wines, internationally renowned rice, and high-quality agricultural products. However, it also boasts cultural activities that have made it famous, particularly "Il Villaggio del Libro" (The Book Village), located inside Palazzo Mossi—the first and currently the only book outlet in the entire country. "Those who love reading, traveling, and exploring the infinite spaces of words and imagination will find a welcoming harbor in this Monferrato land, which may gradually become recognized not only as a land of fine wines but also of books… DOC." This is part of the presentation accompanying the initiative. In this setting, where agriculture and gastronomy blend beautifully with culture, a farmhouse was built in the early 1900s—now available for sale. Positioned on the border of Casale Monferrato’s municipal territory, near the Church of Madonna degli Angeli, the property consists of a main building, the heart of the estate, surrounded by six smaller buildings (sheds, warehouses, annexes, etc.) within a plot of approximately 3,100 square meters. The main structure is divided into two sections, currently serving two well-defined purposes. The residential area spans three levels (ground floor, first floor with a spacious terrace, and attic), all connected by a central staircase. The agricultural section includes two large garages and various utility rooms on the ground floor, while the first floor—accessible via an original metal spiral staircase—hosts what was once the hayloft, a stunning open-space area with exposed beams that could be transformed into a magnificent living space. The building is structurally solid and well-maintained, though its interior requires some remodeling depending on its intended use. As mentioned, the property also includes six satellite structures, ranging from sheds to warehouses and agricultural annexes, offering versatile spaces that can be adapted to various needs and creative ideas. Its generous volume, open views of the countryside, and independence from other structures allow for multiple possibilities. It could be converted into several apartments, a charming bed & breakfast, or even a high-quality agriturismo, taking full advantage of the area's strong enogastronomic identity. The proximity to a major town makes this property convenient from a logistical standpoint, providing easy access to road networks while offering the tranquility of country living. At the same time, it remains close enough to Casale Monferrato to benefit from the services and amenities of the city.

After a long and rewarding career, Anna has finally reached the well-deserved goal of retirement. With the money of the liquidation he decided to realize a dream that he cultivated for a long time: buy his own house in a place rich in history, culture and natural beauty. The choice fell on Modica, a beautiful baroque town in the province of Ragusa, in south-eastern Sicily. Famous for its handmade chocolate, the majestic churches and picturesque alleys, Modica is also close to the sea: in a few minutes drive you can reach golden beaches and crystal clear waters. The property that Anna has bought is in a quiet, panoramic and well connected area. This is a two-storey house, with two separate apartments. On the ground floor there is a garage, a kitchen, a bedroom and a terrace with beautiful views of the city and the hills. On the first floor, instead, there is a second house consisting of kitchen, living room with its balcony and a double bedroom overlooking the beautiful terrace that we have already found also on the ground floor. Anna has decided to merge the two apartments into a single house on two levels. On the ground floor has a large living area with kitchen, bright and cozy, ideal to receive friends and family. Upstairs she has kept the bedrooms, ready to welcome her two children during the holidays when they come to visit her with their families. To ensure a certain degree of independence during periods when children and grandchildren stay for long periods, Anna has thought of an intelligent furniture: a transformable piece of furniture that allows you to separate part of the living room on the ground floor, creating an autonomous and functional space. This solution, in addition to offering greater convenience for the family, also opens up the possibility of renting a part of the house for short periods, generating an extra income. Serene and satisfied with her choice, Anna enjoys the new life in Modica, between walks by the sea, sunsets on the terrace and the warmth of a house finally all his own, Anna still does not exist, But surely you have imagined yourself here in his place...waiting to enjoy the well-deserved rest with the family.

As soon as I cross the threshold, the sound of my footsteps on the ancient wood resonates like a call. There is something in the air — not just dust from past stories, but rhythm. The light coming in through the large windows sculpts the air, cuts the shadows into soft lines, as if just waiting for someone to dance. And I can't resist. One heartbeat, then another. And my body already responds, almost without me. I came in out of curiosity, sincerely attracted by the price, but this is not a simple apartment. It's a hidden stage. A forgotten ballroom, enclosed in the heart of an old factory in Casale Monferrato. Here, between Turin and Milan, where the hills draw the profile of time and silence can tell better than words, it is as if the soul of the place still lives. In the large living room, once the beating heart of the workers' after-work club, I see with my imagination those tired bodies, freed from uniforms and shifts. I hear the gramophone music, the stolen smiles, the hands touching each other with modesty and desire. Those floors —these very under my feet — have known love, hope, rebirth. And it's as if every step I take is a continuation of that story. The eat-in kitchen, with its tidy pantry, seems made to prepare shared dinners, evening laughter, improvised toasts. The dining room next door seems to be waiting for stories to listen to, slow conversations. The two rooms, intimate and welcoming, still have the right silence to dream. The bathroom invites you to take care of yourself, calmly, with respect. But it is the living room that captures me, that holds me back. This is where I go back to dancing. Not to perform, but to pay homage to those who, before me, found freedom in this place. And it's clear by now: this is not just a house. It is a choreography suspended in time. A living memory that still seeks steps, music, emotions. And I... I’d leave my heart there.
