The property, located in via Arfeli (in the center of Cianciana) is a very typical Sicilian ancient house. At the street level the interior includes spaces that some previous time were used as stall and an ample underground space which was used as barn at one time (to deposit  the straw). This characteristic room still conserve a manger and original typical barrel vault with lunettes. All ground floor has about 60 square meters of surface. The house at the first floor is much bright with alone two blind walls: this lucky condition is possible because this house faces to the north on the street (via Arfeli) where the other houses aren’t much tall and faces to the south on the roofs that surround them. The first floor is more spacious than much other similar ancient houses, it has 60 square metres of surface. Now, there are three rooms. In the ancient kitchen there is a typical wood kitchen and a concrete hood is on top of it. In the large bedroom, is the attic made in characteristic incannucciato (structure of reeds and mortar). Here, the window open on roofscapes that surround them (it glimpses the Clock Tower) and hillscapes.

“there's something there that enlightens the left hand side of the brain that's why I feel it has attracted a more Bohemian culture of foreigners”. 

The possibility to renovate the propriety saving on purchase, favours one of foreigner’s dreams: to have a house in a  Mediterranean island:

“the main motive why so many foreigners were buying in Cianciana is the low prices of houses. The low prices allows foreigners the ability to own a property in the Mediterranean. These islands are exclusive and nice places to own a home, especially for foreigners living in cold north Europe climates.”
