Townhouse in Sicily – Casa Guggino Bivona

Casa Guggino Costa

Ancient residence in the historic center of Bivona, located close to the ancient Jesuit church Mater Salvatoris, dating back to the 16th century, and next to the brand new municipal theatre, built in 2020 to redevelop the square of primary historical importance for the community.

The construction of the building dates back to the last decades of the 19th century and is composed of a large garage with a high cross-vaulted ceiling, typical of the construction period of the structure, and an apartment on the first floor of approx 140 sqm, both with access from the Piazza street.

It requires renovation work.
