crudo

This teetering stack of curves and angles is a calm and comfortable Sicilian retreat

Crudo is a fabulous modern villa for six sandwiched between the hills and the sea close to the baroque towns of southeast Sicily.

The layered design is architecturally bold with curves softening the angles, and a slim infinity pool boldly balanced on top with a showstopping flourish.

Equally impressive is the connection to its location. From above it’s hard to see that there’s even a house here. It appears to rise out of the land, with the local travertine stone used in its walls and floors.

The thoughtfulness of the design shines through in the division of space. The living area is on the upper layer to take in the views and the exterior, while the bedrooms are below, offering privacy and calm, with warm wood softening the light.

This is a retreat for a group of friends or family who value design that celebrates form and function, and comfort, too. The location close to the baroque town of Noto and the beaches of the Vendicari nature reserve is as excellent as the villa itself.

Rooms description

Bedrooms

The three en-suite bedrooms are on the lower level. They have large beds, floor-to-ceiling glass doors onto the terrace, air conditioning, heating, and room darkening blinds.

Bathrooms

The shower rooms are in Modica stone and have high-performance fixtures and fittings. There is an outdoor shower as well.

Kitchen

The gloss white kitchen has everything you need and is separated from the living room by a large, layered stack of local stone. Eat at the circular dining table inside or at the stone, rectangular table on the terrace behind.

Living rooms

The living area is in the middle of the building and has glass walls on either side. In truth, you’ll spend more of your time outside, either by the pool or on either one of the end terraces with their comfy lounge sets.

Outside

The hills around the villa have long been quarried for their stone and the sheltered end terrace pays homage to this history. With rugs and comfy mattresses that can be rested against the sloping walls, it is protected from the wind and makes the perfect spot for reading and relaxing. The villa’s grass roof means the building’s aerial footprint is barely visible, while the slim rectangular pool is a feat of engineering, balancing at an angle on top. Climb the stairs that resemble those of an Olympic high diving board and take a dip in one of the most impressive private pools we know. The landscaped Mediterranean garden is a heady mix of local herbs, grasses and flowers and the pool terrace is a magnificent place to lounge in the sun looking over the citrus and olive groves to the sea. The glass walls of the living room open onto a veranda, also with incredible views, where you can dine outside, see the star-dotted sky at night and catch the sun rise and set over this beautiful coastal landscape.

Notes

Please be aware that the property is not suitable for small children and particular care needs to be taken around the pool and terraces. If you would like a similar property that is child-friendly, we suggest Massa, the sister villa to this one.

Surroundings

The views from the villa include the beautiful hilltop town of Noto. Guests will be charmed by its baroque architecture, colourful interiors and fabulous array of restaurants that offer everything from pizzas to fine dining, all using beautiful, slow-grown local ingredients. Syracusa is of similar archaeological interest and is matched in its baroque splendour by both Ragusa and Modica - the latter is known as the city of 100 churches and is famed for its chocolate production. The island of Ortigia is another gem of pretty medieval streets, heaving with history, while Marzamemi is a pretty fishing village with delightful restaurants.
