Charming 3 bedroom house in Ortigia by Cala Rossa

On a quiet road a few steps away from the sea and Cala Rossa beach, this luminous independent 3 beds and 3 bathrooms townhouse, has been designed to make your holiday in Ortigia unforgettable. "CASA SANTINI" is the product of our family's love for Ortigia and the vision of our local Architect Ignazio. The house has been fully renovated with meticulous attention to details, keeping the old features and adding all comforts and modern elements to create an elegant and calming space. The space The house has 3 double bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, a full kitchen with an island and an open living space making it ideal for families or a group of friends. From the balconies and the rooftop terrace you can enjoy the views of the surrounding historic buildings, the sea and the quiet street below. The house runs through 3 floors plus the rooftop terrace. From the front glass door you’ll be led to the ground floor where the steel designer staircase will take you upstairs. As you approach the 1st floor you’ll see inside the living space through the glass wall. FIRST FLOOR The living area with sofa and poufs to relax, and right in front the kitchen-dining area with high ceiling exposed beams and ambiance light. The living space has got big french doors with shutters opening to the long balcony which runs through the whole length of the house. The kitchen has been designed as a space to cook together and socialise, with a spacious and inviting layout. We want our guests to feel like this is their home, have a glass of wine with the local cheese and olives while cooking together the fresh products sourced at the local market. The kitchen island has got the hob with integrated extractor fan and a spacious worktop for you to use. On the central unit you can find integrated oven and microwave, fridge and freezer, and cupboards to store your products. The table is just in front of the island so you don’t have to travel far! On the left of the kitchen you’ll access the wooden built-in double bedroom, where everything is custom-made to create a feeling of a snuggle place (we'd like to feel like we are in a sailing boat when we sleep there). On the same floor there's a bathroom with a walk-in shower and access to the balcony. SECOND FLOOR Going up, the staircase will lead you to the second floor landing that goes into the other two bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms, shutters and private balconies. One of the bedrooms has got a walk-in wardrobe as well. To the other side a wooden staircase will lead you to the rooftop terrace. ROOFTOP TERRACE Before or after a day of visits, the terrace is the ideal place to relax and read a book; have your breakfast there and watch the sunset sipping local wines and savouring the gastronomic specialities. The aperitif at sunset is a must! The terrace has got a sink, worktop and build-in benches for you to sit The road is very quiet despite being very close to the centre, and you can ear the waves coming and going. We love to seat there in the evening listening to the sea. At the ground floor there is a laundry area with washing machine and a deep sink that you can use to rinse your beach stuff and toys Guest access From floor to top the house will be all for you - just bear in mind that has got lots of steps as it runs through 3 floors, so if you've got mobility issues or you prefer to stay in one level it might be tricky to walk up and down. Also, the stairs to the loft are a bit steep, so children of a young age need to be supervised. Registration Details IT089017C22ARXJDRR
