4 bedrooms villa, 250 m²

Barrafranca, Enna (province)

This characterful period building is arranged over four levels — ground, first, second and third floor — each with its own independent entrance, offering exceptional flexibility for residential use, holiday accommodation or investment purposes.



Located in Barrafranca, a traditional Sicilian town in the province of Enna, the property enjoys an authentic local atmosphere away from mass tourism, while remaining within easy reach of Sicily’s cultural centres, countryside and coastline.



Adjacent to the main building is an old structure measuring approximately 2 x 5 metres, which offers additional development potential. Subject to the necessary permissions, it could be raised to create an extra room serving the first and second floors, or alternatively transformed into a charming private garden terrace, as originally envisioned by the current owners.



The measurements indicated below are approximate but closely reflect the actual dimensions.



Ground Floor



The ground floor is accessed from Via Ugo Foscolo 7 and opens into a spacious living room measuring approximately 5 x 4.5 metres. Opposite lies a semi-habitable kitchen of around 2 x 5 metres, with a useful storage room positioned beneath the staircase.



To the right of the living area, a corridor of approximately 4 metres leads to:




a bathroom,



a bedroom measuring approximately 3 x 3 metres,



and a second bedroom of approximately 3.5 x 3.5 metres featuring a built-in wardrobe.




Beneath the bedroom floor is a traditional water cistern.



First Floor



Accessed from Via Grillo 53, the first floor currently includes the staircase leading to the second floor; however, this could potentially be removed to create an additional room.



The layout comprises:




a bright living room of approximately 7 x 4.5 metres,



a kitchen measuring 3 x 3 metres,



a principal bedroom of approximately 4.5 x 4.5 metres,



two additional bedrooms measuring approximately 4.5 x 2.5 metres and 3.5 x 3 metres,



and a bathroom.




The living spaces open onto balconies, while the bedrooms feature windows overlooking the surrounding streets.



Second Floor



The second and third floors are accessed independently from Via Amore 44 via a comfortable staircase with an elegant wrought-iron railing.



The second floor opens into a generous living room of approximately 7 x 6 metres, enhanced by a Palazzetti corner fireplace. Opposite is the kitchen, measuring around 5 x 2.5 metres, alongside a double laundry/service area.



A corridor leads to:




two bedrooms,



a principal bedroom,



and a bathroom.




Adjacent to the principal bedroom is the stairwell connecting to the first floor, which could potentially be removed to create an additional room. Long balconies wrap around much of the floor, bringing in abundant natural light.



Third Floor



The top floor occupies approximately half the footprint of the apartment below, while the remaining section consists of a roof terrace with an attic space suitable for storage.



Partially enclosed with sliding glass windows and partially open as a terrace, this level was previously used as a study furnished with nineteenth-century pieces. The painted ceiling adds further charm and character to this unique space, which offers excellent potential as a studio, reading room or panoramic relaxation area.
