This modernist villa, designed by architect Armando Barraja, offers breathtaking views of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Aeolian Islands. The concave terrace embraces the sea horizon as it leads you to your private bay nestled among cliffs, pine trees, and agave plants. An architectural masterpiece where Euclidean geometry meets Sicilian history.
The interior spaces celebrate classic modernism with vintage furniture from the 1960s and 1970s, including pieces by Panton, Breuer, and Sapper. The large windows in the living room frame the sea, while the walled courtyards create harmony between the interior and exterior. Every construction detail reflects the architectural vision of the master Barraja.
The land slopes down to the sea through a primordial Mediterranean landscape. Two complementary terraces, one convex for sunbathers and one concave for those seeking shade, follow the rhythm of the horizon. Walking along the path through Mediterranean essences, you reach your private bay on the cliffs.
The fishing villages of Aspra, Sant'Elia, and Porticello are only 2-3 km away and offer fish markets, authentic trattorias, and beaches. Explore Monte Catalfano and Capo Zafferano for scenic hikes or visit the Archaeological Park of Solunto, an ancient Greek city perched on a hill.

My name is Giacomo. After studying architecture abroad, I returned to Palermo to preserve the villa of my father, the architect Armando Barraja. We share this architectural masterpiece with guests who love art and nature.
