Hidden away amongst 30,000 square feet of gorgeous gardens, Villa Maude can be found on the slopes of Mount Etna, a short drive away from the large city of Catania. Resting in Sicily’s famous DOC wine region, the home maintains the structure of a traditional wine-making facility.

Beautifully decorated, the furnishings and architecture both feature an effortless blend of old and new elements. Intricate gold-painted mirror frames coexist alongside sleek modern rain head showers; a glass fireplace sits next to stylish floating shelving; a flatscreen TV lies beneath a magnificent painted ceiling, evoking the detailed beauty of the Vatican.

Villa Maude is the perfect destination for ultimate relaxation. Slide into the sparkling aquamarine waters of the saltwater infinity pool, or lie back on a sofa in the glass-walled sunroom right next to the pool. Beside the fully-equipped kitchen sits the terrace – come evening, this is the ideal spot for a delectable al fresco meal as the sky fades from brilliant blue to dusky pink.

The villa spans three stories and a separate annexe and offers four spacious bedrooms. Chic and timeless, this exquisitely furnished home-away-from-home is well suited to families or groups of friends seeking a Sicilian holiday that’s a little different from the rest.
