Property In Sicily

Appartamento Filippo II - Marina di Caronia A ground-floor flat with two terraces and two bedrooms, Appartamento Filippo II is a fully furnished and immediately liveable apartment in the quiet seafront town of Marina di Caronia, on Sicily’s northern Tyrrhenian coast. TWO TERRACES, TWO WAYS TO ENJOY THE OUTDOORS The sea-view terrace at the front of the property faces east across the bay and is ideal for sunbathing and breakfast in the morning light. A long corridor connects it to a second terrace that opens directly from the kitchen, a more sheltered spot suited to outdoor lunches and evenings outside. The interior covers around 55m2 net, arranged as a kitchen-diner of 17m2, a twin bedroom, a 16m2 master double with a view onto the courtyard, a hallway and a bathroom with a modern cubicle shower. The washing machine is already plumbed in. Both entrances are from Via Vespucci. SOLD FURNISHED AND READY FOR IMMEDIATE USE Appartamento Filippo II is sold fully furnished and fitted with double-glazed PVC windows, air conditioning in every room, a 1,000-litre water cistern and a gas boiler for hot water. Nothing needs to be budgeted beyond the purchase price. The apartment does not form part of the building’s condominium arrangement, which means no service charges and a straightforward ownership structure. A QUIET CORNER OF SICILY’S NORTHERN COAST Marina di Caronia is at the foot of the Nebrodi mountains, with a beach fifty metres along the road and a train station five minutes on foot. Sant’Agata di Militello is around twenty minutes by car for supermarket shopping and hospital services. Palermo’s airport, the nearest international gateway, is under ninety minutes’ drive. For a beachfront apartment in north Sicily that is furnished, complete and ready to use, Appartamento Filippo II is a strong proposition.

Villa Alessandro - Altavilla Milicia Renovated from top to bottom and ready to move in, Villa Alessandro is a three-bedroom sea-view property in Altavilla Milicia, steps from Sicily’s northern coast. THREE FLOORS, THREE SEA VIEWS The villa rises over three levels, each with its own outdoor space. On the ground floor, a 16m2 covered veranda looks out to sea and connects to an open-plan living space of more than 35m2. A tiled parking area for two cars and an ornamental garden path complete the ground-level approach. The first floor holds the master bedroom with its own 16m2 terrace, a second bedroom that opens onto a private rear garden planted with olive, orange and fig trees, and a bathroom with a sea view. On the top floor, a third bedroom with en-suite opens onto the largest of the three terraces, with a 180-degree panorama. READY TO MOVE IN, OR READY TO LET A recent comprehensive renovation has left the property in excellent order, with certified electrics and plumbing, double-glazed windows, updated bathrooms and four heat pumps across the three floors. The valid habitability certificate is in place. For buyers with rental income in mind, this area of the northern coast sees strong summer demand from international visitors. A fully documented three-bedroom sea-view property with multiple terraces and a walk-to-the-beach location is well placed to perform. WELL CONNECTED TO PALERMO AND BEYOND Altavilla Milicia’s shops and services are under 5km away. The local train station brings central Palermo under 20 minutes by rail, and the international airport is roughly 45 minutes by car. Bagheria and the Capo Zafferano coast are under 15 minutes in the other direction. At this price, a fully renovated property in this position on Sicily’s northern coast offers compelling value.

Villa Antonello - S.Agata di Militello With a sweeping 180-degree view over the Tyrrhenian Sea and the green Nebrodi hills, Villa Antonello is a solidly built two-apartment property at 450 metres above sea level in the municipality of Sant’Agata di Militello, completed in 2011 and ready to use. One Apartment to Use Now; Another to Finish The first apartment is finished to a high standard of craftsmanship, with a brick fireplace connected to the radiator heating system, terracotta floors, exposed beamed ceilings and custom-built wooden cabinetry. The living space is on the ground floor with a well-fitted kitchen and WC; the upper level has two bedrooms, a bathroom and a private terrace with sea views. Air conditioning is in place on both floors. The second apartment mirrors the same layout and has been built to the same structural standard. It needs its finishing touches — kitchen unit, radiators and stair cladding — making this a short fit-out project rather than a renovation. Both apartments hold certificates of habitability. Outdoor Life and Self-Sufficiency A stone outdoor kitchen with a wood-fired oven and dining table is built at the edge of the hillside, looking straight out over the valley. The 3,300m2 plot is planted with olive trees that produce their own extra-virgin oil, and there is a prepared area beneath the terrace for a vegetable garden. A 40m2 outbuilding is fully registered and provides ample storage or workshop space. Sea, Mountains and Verdant Green Hills The town of Sant’Agata di Militello, with its beaches, marina, supermarkets and year-round services, is seven kilometres away — around fifteen minutes by car. Direct trains connect the town to Palermo (under two hours) and Messina (around an hour and a half). Palermo’s international airport is under two hours by road. Cefalù is an hour to the west. The Aeolian Islands, visible on a clear day, are reachable by ferry from Capo d’Orlando, 25 kilometres east. Potential Rental Income Villa Antonello is well priced for a two-apartment property with this quality of view and this level of finish in the first apartment. The second apartment, once completed, opens up solid rental income potential in a part of Sicily where experiential tourism is growing. The combination of cool summer temperatures, Nebrodi park access, sea proximity and good transport links makes this a compelling offer for a second home buyer or small rental investor alike.

Villa Salina - Trabia Spacious and meticulously designed, Villa Salina is a three-bedroom detached home located just outside Trabia, in the province of Palermo. Just 800 meters as the crow flies from the nearest beach, you can enjoy sea views from the sunny terraces, the best of which spans the entire flat roof of this single-story property. THREE BEDROOMS AND SOME FANTASTIC FAMILY SPACES The floor plan is typically Sicilian, with one end of the house used during the day and the other at night. The former includes a large entryway and a very spacious kitchen-dining room, where you can enjoy the sun streaming in through the large south-facing window. The three bedrooms can all accommodate two people, although one of them is currently used as a study. The veranda was once an open porch that has been enclosed on three sides. This has created a fabulous space to use year-round, with the windows open in summer and closed to retain heat during Sicily’s short winters. JUST A FEW STEPS FROM THE BEACH Although the area is very rural—and you certainly won’t feel as close to your neighbors as you would in the more densely populated residences and complexes closer to the beach—the road to the sea is only 1.4 km away. If that seems too far on a hot day, you can cover the distance in just a few minutes by bike or car. The property is also strategically located near Sicily’s main highway, which connects Palermo in the east with Messina in the west. The location is truly ideal for a buyer wishing to explore all that Sicily has to offer, with no part of the island more than a three-hour drive away. IN EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR YEAR-ROUND USE The property is extremely energy-efficient, with solar panels on the roof to generate electricity and heat water, and recently installed windows to insulate the interior. The south-facing windows and the veranda are perfect for enjoying the warmth of the sun even on a winter day, and, as a final touch of comfort, all rooms feature gas radiators. In the summer, you’ll appreciate the air conditioners throughout the house and the shade provided by the trees in the garden and the awnings in front of the veranda and on the roof. Plus, of course, you can cool off with a dip in the crystal-clear water whenever you feel like it!

Casa Isolotto - Misiliscemi Barely 300 metres from the shore on Sicily’s western coast, Casa Isolotto is a historic building awaiting restoration in the municipality of Misiliscemi, between Trapani and Marsala. EGADI VIEWS AND A PRIVATE PATH TO THE BEACH The two-storey building covers around 195 square metres and includes a main residential wing and a characterful former stable of 50 square metres. On the first floor, a panoramic terrace looks directly across the Mediterranean to the Egadi Islands. Curved terracotta roof tiles and interlocking clay drainpipes speak of a building with real historical character. The property comes with over a hectare of land – 11,000 square metres of Mediterranean scrubland stretching from the house towards the water. A private path crosses this land and leads to a near-private beach, far from the usual tourist circuits. KITE-SURFING, FLAMINGOS AND WINE COUNTRY The Stagnone lagoon, one of Europe’s premier kite-surfing destinations, is just minutes away to the south. Here you can also visit the ruins of one of Europe's oldest settlements, the Phoenician island town of Mozia. The Trapani salt pans, where flamingos gather at sunset, are a short trip up the coast, and the celebrated wineries of Marsala are close at hand. Ryanair base Trapani Birgi airport is just 15 minutes away, and Palermo provides a second option that's under an hour along the motorway. The port of Trapani offers fast hydrofoil connections to Favignana, Levanzo and Marettimo. A RENOVATION WITH A HEAD START The ruined property will require a complete renovation, with our best estimate of work costs between €1,500 and €1,800 per square metre. However, it may come as a pleasant surprise to learn that in Italy, its status as a listed building actually simplifies the planning process, allowing work to begin without the usual bureaucratic delays. The finished product, whether a private residence or a holiday rental in one of Sicily’s fastest-growing tourist markets, would represent outstanding value for money. With over a hectare of land, a path to the beach and views of the Egadi Islands, properties like this rarely stay available for long. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Villa Giovanna - Campofelice In the midst of a productive lemon grove on a full hectare of land, Villa Giovanna is a two-bedroom country home with panoramic sea views in the hills above Campofelice di Roccella, on Sicily’s north coast. OUTDOOR LIVING AT ITS BEST The covered terrace is the heart of daily life here: a permanent tiled canopy over a terracotta floor, facing the sea and overlooking an unexpectedly lush Mediterranean lawn which really shines in the sun. A stone-built outdoor kitchen and an additional a pizza oven around the corner makes this a dream spot for long, sociable evenings in the open air. The paved parking area at the end of the private driveway offers its own panoramic views of the Gulf of Termini Imerese, and the estate’s 300 lemon trees, thirty olive trees and drip irrigation system create a lush and productive setting. A SOUND STRUCTURE READY TO BE SHAPED Inside, the 90m2 villa has an open-plan living room with a high sloping ceiling, a kitchen-diner with walk-in pantry, a study, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The structure is solid and the exterior was recently re-rendered, but the interior fittings are due for an update. This is a project home with serious potential for anyone who wants to shape a property to their own tastes, and the result could be a very comfortable rural retreat with all the character of its idyllic lemon grove setting. A WORKING ESTATE WITH RENTAL APPEAL The estate really sets this property apart. Whether you want to produce your own olive oil and organic lemons, or simply enjoy the privacy and beauty of a productive Mediterranean garden, the grounds deliver. The combination of sea views, rural seclusion and a working grove also gives Villa Giovanna real appeal as a holiday let for guests looking for something beyond the ordinary. BETWEEN CEFALÙ AND PALERMO Campofelice di Roccella is a year-round community with all the services you need, only two kilometres from the property. The beaches are less than ten minutes away, Cefalù is just ten kilometres to the east and Palermo is 45 minutes by motorway. A property of this calibre and scale, in this position, is well placed in the current Sicilian market. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

White Loft - Mondello A fully furnished, ready-to-use holiday apartment just steps from one of Sicily’s most celebrated beaches, White Loft is found on via Stesicoro in the prestigious seaside district of Mondello, on the outskirts of Palermo. CONTEMPORARY DESIGN, READY TO MOVE IN The ground-floor apartment underwent a total renovation in the recent past, and is sold fully furnished with designer fittings throughout. The open-plan living space is anchored by a Modulnova kitchen, while a Rimadesio-style glass partition creates a seamless flow of light between the lounge and the double bedroom. A resin-finished bathroom with walk-in shower, a private south-west-facing terrace and air conditioning in both main rooms complete a home that is ready to use from day one. The terrace faces the rocky hillside of Capo Gallo and benefits from both permanent cover and a retractable awning, making it usable in all conditions. AN INVESTMENT THAT PAYS FOR ITSELF White Loft is already an established holiday let managed by our agency's sister company, Solemar Sicilia. Scores of 8.4 on Booking.com and 4.6 on Airbnb attest to its popularity and smooth operation. Net rental income from the April-to-October season alone is around €15-20,000, and there is obvious scope to extend this into the increasingly popular low season if you don't plan on wintering here yourself. A private parking space adds significant market appeal, and a basement storage room is an extremely helpful facility for the owners. Both are rare finds in this neighbourhood. With the sale, the option to continue the arrangement with Solemar Sicilia would give the opportunity for a completely frictionless transition, and the potential to purchase on a pure investment basis. The flexibility of their service, however, would give you complete freedom to use the home as you like, and cash in on its lucrative position and beautiful design any time life keeps you elsewhere. MONDELLO: PALERMO’S FAVOURITE BEACH The beach is roughly 300 metres from the front door, and the cafes, restaurants and shops of the town centre and promenade are all within walking distance. Central Palermo is fifteen minutes away by car, and Falcone-Borsellino international airport is reachable in around 25 minutes, with direct flights across Europe and to the United States in summer. For a buyer seeking a holiday investment in one of Sicily’s most desirable locations, White Loft offers strong and stable returns at a competitive price point.

Casa Pino - Gratteri A furnished and immediately habitable four-storey home with sea views, Casa Pino stands at the entrance to the picturesque Madonie Park village of Gratteri, just half an hour from Cefalù. 180m2 OF READY-TO-USE LIVING SPACE The property spans four levels and offers around 180m2 of indoor space, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a well-preserved kitchen and two garages. The finishes are carefully maintained, with Venetian plaster walls, marble floors and a Botticino marble staircase. The house is sold complete with furniture, and three heat pumps provide year-round climate control. Fibre-optic broadband is connected at the front door and a pair of reception rooms give you every opportunity to create a home office, making this a very appealing option for ayone who wants to work remotely in the Mediterranean sunshine. SEA VIEWS AND OPEN SKIES The corner position on the northern edge of the village, at 670m above sea level, gives Casa Pino an open outlook that most properties in the historic centre cannot match. The upper-floor terraces and wraparound balconies look out across the Gulf of Termini Imerese, with direct views towards the coast. The bedrooms catch the morning sun, and the ground-floor rooms are bright and welcoming thanks to the dual aspect. Cefalù’s beaches and Norman old town are a short drive to the north, and Palermo’s international airport is about an hour away. NO NEED TO SPEND BUT POTENTIAL TO INVEST With dual street access and a flexible layout, the property could accommodate four bedrooms, or be divided into separate units for combined personal and rental use. The lower level already functions as a self-contained space with its own kitchen, shower and entrance. There is no need for immediate investment, with the place absolutely habitable. Down the line the buyer might want to consider adding a smoother finish to the rough exterior rendering, updating some windows and investing in roof insulation. However, this is a turnkey home with space, views and character that would cost several times more in a coastal town or larger city. For anyone searching for a well-priced, substantial ’s Madonie Park, Casa Pino sets a high bar. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Mandrazze - Castelbuono On the edge of one of the Madonie’s most vibrant towns, Case Mandrazze are a pair of independent country homes listed for joint sale. On a 6,000m2 countryside estate just outside the surprisingly lively Castelbuono, it offers flexibility, privacy and sea views. A STONE FARMHOUSE WITH SEA VIEWS The main house is a two-storey building in the traditional Madonie stone style, with an open-plan ground floor featuring a kitchen, living room with fireplace and bathroom. Upstairs, two bedrooms with sea views open off a generous landing that's topped off with a sunny balcony. The house is habitable now, though a full update of the fixtures and bathrooms would bring it to a modern standard. The front terrace offers panoramic views north over the olive groves and down to the Tyrrhenian coast, a feature that is uncommon at this altitude in the Madonie. A GUEST COTTAGE WITH POTENTIAL The separate single-storey cottage dates from the 1980s and offers a living room, two bedrooms and a mezzanine. It needs some foundation repair before it can be used, but otherwise is in good shape, with relatively modern fittings and only a little redecoration needed to make a very comfortable little annexe for visitors or to market as a holiday rental. This, too, is surrounded by a shady terrace with lovely green park views. An outdoor kitchen here would really put the cherry on the cake. COUNTRYSIDE LIVING,TOWN AT YOUR DOORSTEP Castelbuono is a walkable distance or short drive away, offering restaurants, shops, year-round cultural events and one of the strongest international communities in the Sicilian interior. The north coast beaches are about 35 minutes by car, and Palermo’s international airport is roughly 90 minutes away. This well-balanced location means that the homes are fully connected to all mains services , keeping the necessary renovation budget to a level that would still compete with many single homes. All of this makes the twin buildings and fruitful gardens of Case Mandrazze a compelling prospect for buyers who want space, seclusion and value.

Appartamento Gregorio - Casteldaccia Perched 65 metres above the Tyrrhenian Sea on a hilltop plot in Casteldaccia, Appartamento Gregorio is a two-bedroom apartment with views across the Gulf of Termini Imerese from both bedrooms and some lovely design touches that make it feel instantly homely. A QUIET GATED PLOT WITH DIRECT ACCESS FROM THE CARPORT The apartment forms part of a low-rise condominium, although it offers the privacy of an independent home. A private entrance leads straight in from a shaded front porch, screened from the road by trees and shrubs, and a carport is within a few steps of the front door. The property is part of a small block of flats with shared gardens and use of an automatic gate from the street. Other amenities include a huge water reserve from an communal reservoir. SPACIOUS INTERIORS WITH QUALITY FINISHES The home has two large bedrooms, each with parquet flooring and its own balcony, and a striking formal living room with a fine, expertly laid parquet floor. There is also a separate dining room large enough for eight, a built-in Sicilian kitchen with tiled work surfaces, a separate laundry area and a large family bathroom with a window. Decorative ceiling friezes, panels of coloured internal glass and a careful choice of tile work add character throughout, in a way that suggests an owner who has cared deeply about the small details. A SMART MOVE ON THE COAST EAST OF PALERMO Appartamento Gregorio sits at the top of a hillside overlooking the sea, with the centre of Casteldaccia a short walk or drive away. In the other direction, down the hill, some popular beach clubs and public coves are easily accessible, as is the historic Duca di Salaparuta winery. The local train station is around ten minutes’ walk and brings you into central Palermo in about 25 minutes. The international airport is less than an hour by car, and Cefalù under an hour up the coast in the other direction. A DURABLE FAMILY HOME OR A HIGH-POTENTIAL INVESTMENT The home is ready to occupy as it stands, with the vendor committing to refurbish the exterior balconies before completion. It has everything you need for a full time relocation to the Sicilian sun, including step-free access that makes it perfect as a retirement property. On the other hand, the spacious layout could support a division into two completely self-contained one-bedroom apartments of nearly 100m2 apiece, each with its own sea-view balcony and fully independent entrance. Whether you want a home to use yourself, a pair to resell or rent out or even one of each, this is a beauty and offers great value at the asking price.

The villa is sold fully furnished and in excellent condition, with nothing to spend before moving in. CONTEMPORARY COMFORT WITH PANORAMIC TERRACES The nearly new villa is finished to the highest standards, with ceramic floors, finely plastered walls and wooden trim in a contemporary colour palette.

Upstairs, the master bedroom has a balcony with a partial sea view, while the guest room opens onto a south-facing balcony that catches the sun throughout the day. A 2.4 kW photovoltaic system and A++ energy classification keep running costs impressively low. A QUIET VILLAGE ON THE DOORSTEP OF CEFALù Sant’Ambrogio is a hamlet of around 300 people perched on a terrace above the Tyrrhenian coast, with local restaurants, a village shop and a quiet beach at the foot of the cliffs.

Appartamento Massimiliano - Aspra A stone’s throw from the sea in a charming little fishing village on the Gulf of Palermo, Appartamento Massimiliano is a two-bedroom apartment with generous living spaces and a really winning balcony that wraps around the south and west sides of the home. A WRAPAROUND BALCONY OVER THE ROOFTOPS. The first floor apartment’s standout feature is this balcony, accessible from the master bedroom, living room and kitchen-diner. Even without a lofty top floor vantage point, your view will take in green hillsides, colourful neighbouring buildings and a wide open sky, with a hint of sea breeze drifting up from the waterfront. The sea is just 350 metres away. Inside, the rooms are airy and well-proportioned, with marble tile floors, white walls and wooden doors. The kitchen is large enough to seat eight and benefits from dual aspect windows. A second bedroom, bathroom, storeroom and utility room complete the layout. The property is sold unfurnished and in good condition, ready to be personalised. A FISHING VILLAGE 20 MINUTES FROM THE CITY Aspra is not a seasonal resort. It is a working community with bakeries, fish markets and restaurants open twelve months a year. The beaches and seafront promenade are minutes away on foot, and the coastline in both directions is full of coves and inlets to explore. Nearby Sant’Elia and the fishing harbour of Porticello add further character to the peninsula. Year-round demand for both residential and tourist rentals means the apartment offers genuine income potential alongside personal use, making it a practical choice for buyers who want their property to work for them. Bagheria train station is 2km away, connecting you to central Palermo in twenty minutes. The international airport is a 45 minute drive. IN GOOD CONDITION AND READY FOR IMMEDIATE USE A fresh coat of paint is all it takes to make this apartment your own. The bathroom is in good working order and the common areas of the building have been looked after with care. It is sold unfurnished, giving you the perfect opportunity to redecorate and put your personal stamp on the home before moving in, but all of the connections and infrastructure are sound, and you will have no trouble creating a homely atmosphere in this warm, sunny and well-located apartment.

Villa Iolanda - Cefalù Set in the green, wooded hills behind one of Sicily’s best-loved beach towns, Villa Iolanda is a detached two-storey shell overlooking Cefalù. The buyer will need to complete the unfinished property, but will have almost unlimited freedom to personalise it as they like. A COMPLETE STRUCTURE TO FINISH EXACTLY AS YOU LIKE The shell of the villa has been built in reinforced concrete with insulating clay block walls and a structurally watertight roof. At around 93 square metres over two floors, it will offer a pair of bedrooms and at least one bathroom on the ground floor, and what will eventually be an open living space on the upper level, where the views are at their best. A wraparound terrace will take full advantage of this, giving views of the Rocca di Cefalù, the cathedral and some of the Tyrrhenian Sea beyond. The buyer will have complete freedom to choose all finishes and materials, with the walls, floors and windows still to be installed, besides the plumbing, electrics and drainage. This is a rare opportunity to have complete creative freedom over a brand new home without having to involve yourself in the bureaucracy-heavy planning stage. The garden wraps around the front of the ground floor, with room for a lawn, outdoor kitchen and dining, and even a small pool if you would like. TEN MINUTES FROM THE BEACH The property sits at around 200 metres above sea level, roughly 1.3 kilometres from the coast as the crow flies, in a quiet residential pocket of well-spaced detached houses surrounded by woodland and lush hillsides. The access road is in good condition, and supermarkets are within a ten-minute drive. The old town of Cefalù, with its UNESCO-listed cathedral and famous sandy beach, is about the same distance. Cefalù’s railway station offers direct services to Palermo in under an hour, and the island’s main international airport is around 80 minutes away by car. A CEFALU' ADDRESS AT A RARE PRICE Even allowing for the investment required to complete Villa Iolanda, detached homes within the municipality of Cefalù rarely come on the market at this price point. We estimate between €100,000 and €140,000 above the purchase price to be a realistic budget for the rest of the work, so you are trading time for a significant discount on the typical cost of a new home in perfect condition here. All necessary documentation is in order and the sellers will hand over with renewed permits, so work will be able to begin without any delay.

Appartamento Michele - Porticello A practical and spacious three-bedroom home on the Sicilian coast, Appartamento Michele is found in the welcoming fishing village of Porticello, just twenty minutes from central Palermo. SUN, SPACE AND SEA AIR The second-floor apartment occupies the top residential level of a small three-unit building, with balconies running along three sides and a large roof terrace for the exclusive use of the buyer. Inside, the layout is generous: three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a storeroom, an eat-in kitchen and a living room with dual exposition that catches light from the south-west and south-east. Ceiling height is 3 metres throughout, and the warm patterned tile floors match the wooden trim for a cohesive, welcoming feel. A ROOF TERRACE TO MAKE YOUR OWN Upstairs, the open-air terrace is a highlight. Large enough to accommodate a pergola, outdoor kitchen and seating area, it’s the kind of versatile outdoor space that’s hard to come by at this price point. With a small adjustment to the front parapet, a partial sea view can be opened up – and the terrace can even be divided to serve two separate units, should you choose to split the apartment for rental income. PORTICELLO: CHARACTER AND CONVENIENCE The marina is 300 metres away, the beach 650 metres, and the lovely inlet at Sant’Elia just over a kilometre along the coast. Santa Flavia’s train station is a kilometre inland, with services to Palermo in twenty minutes. The area is rich in archaeology, natural beauty and fresh seafood, yet remains blissfully free of mass tourism. AFFORDABLE AND READY TO USE The apartment is in sound condition and will need no urgent work. However, some modernising would definitely bring the best out of it. We recommend redoing the electrical system, bathrooms and windows, but this is reflected in a very appealing asking price. Its generous footprint also makes it possible to divide into two separate units, if you're seeking rental income or a smaller home with a guest flat. With balconies on three sides, high ceilings, a roof terrace and a fishing village location minutes from Palermo, this is a highly recommendable mid-range purchase with plenty of scope to add value, both indoors and out.

Plot Gorgone - Gratteri With approved plans for a rural tourism resort and sweeping Madonie views, Plot Gorgone is a 2.5-hectare development opportunity in the hills above Gratteri, twenty-five minutes from Cefalù. SIX LUXURY CAMPING PITCHES AND A NATURAL POOL The approved plans set out six independent luxury camping pitches along a marked-out internal road, each positioned for privacy and landscape integration. At the lower end of the estate, the plans include a main house for reception and dining, a guest building with three en-suite bedrooms and a bio-piscina – a natural swimming pool in keeping with the ecological ethos of the project. All key authorisations are already in place: the geological survey, the Madonie Park environmental clearance and the municipal building permit. SOUTH-FACING AND CLOSE TO THE COAST The hillside slopes towards the south-west, catching the sun from midday through to sunset. About 350 metres above sea level it's a quiet and secluded spot dotted with lush Mediterranean vegetation including olive trees and other fruit. The nearest village is Gratteri, a ten-minute drive away, while the nearest beaches can be reached in twenty minutes and the tourist magnet of Cefalù in twenty-five. A GROWING MARKET WITH LITTLE COMPETITION The Madonie currently has very few luxury camping – or ‘glamping’ – facilities, and the Cefalù area still relies on traditional campsites. A well-designed resort here would occupy an open niche in a segment that is attracting growing interest from international travellers. The total investment, including all construction, is estimated at between €800,000 and €1,000,000, with projected net annual profits of €60,000 to €80,000 under direct management. PURCHASE A FULLY OPERATIONAL COMMERCIAL ENTITY The sale is structured as a company transfer – Ecoturismo Valle di Gratteri SRL – reducing transaction costs by an estimated €8,000. The buyer inherits a legal entity ready to operate, along with the approved project. The only remaining step before construction can begin is to complete the structural engineering plans. At its asking price, Plot Gorgone offers strong value as development land with real income potential. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

WALKABLE TOWN, CONNECTED COAST Santa Flavia’s train station is five minutes away on foot, with direct services to central Palermo (20 minutes) and along the coast towards Cefalù (under an hour). Cafés, shops and a greengrocer are steps from the front door, while larger supermarkets are close by in Bagheria. The fishing village of Porticello, the archaeological site of Solunto and several beaches, including the clear waters of Sant’Elia, are all within easy reach. Palermo airport is about 40 minutes by car. A SOUND ENTRY INTO A GROWING MARKET Casa Brigitte generates approximately €10,000 in gross annual rental income, with established guest reviews and occupancy history. The holiday rental market in Santa Flavia continues to strengthen as international visitors seek out authentic coastal alternatives to busier resort towns. At the time of writing, a third-floor apartment in the same building – with a 65m2 roof terrace – is also available, offering scope for expansion.

The CIR and CIN licenses and habitability certificates necessary to host rental guests are in order, and these will transfer with the ownership of the property. It has even been featured in Airbnb's selective Plus program. PRIME LOCATION WITH EXCELLENT CONNECTIVITY Located on Santa Flavia's main corso, Casa Colibrì is 500 meters from the railway station. Direct trains connect you to central Palermo (20 minutes) and Cefalù (60 minutes). All daily amenities, including cafés, restaurants and grocery stores, are within five minutes' walk. The fishing village of Porticello, ancient Solunto archaeological site, and multiple beaches including Sant'Elia and the dramatic Kafara beach are all easily accessible. This is authentic coastal Sicily with modern infrastructure. You won't need to depend on your car, but can easily reach major cities, beautiful beaches and cultural landmarks. Palermo airport in 40 minutes away by car or only a little over an hour by public transport. EXCLUSIVE ROOFTOP TERRACE & STRONG MARKET FUNDAMENTALS The substantial 65m2 rooftop terrace belongs exclusively to this apartment, providing a private outdoor retreat with open sky and sea views. This is exactly the kind of premium amenity that drives higher rental rates and enthusiastic guest reviews. Santa Flavia has seen property values double over the past five years as international buyers discover this authentic alternative to overcrowded tourist destinations. The apartment's gross annual revenue has approached €15,000, and there is significant appreciation potential to this home in one of Sicily's fastest-growing coastal markets. We estimate that you would fully recoup your capital in just 10-12 years. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Ignazia - Cefalù A renovation project with real promise in one of Sicily’s most famous coastal towns, Casa Ignazia is found in the Kalura district of Cefalù, just twenty metres from the sea. CHARACTER THAT SHINES IN THE MORNING SUN Part of a historic coastal building divided among several owners, Casa Ignazia is arranged over two floors. The first-floor apartment has a bright bedroom with two windows, a living area with kitchen and an east-facing balcony that fills the rooms with morning light. The exterior is finished in attractive exposed stone, with a small enclosed garden. Upstairs in the attic, original wooden roof trusses present a striking architectural feature waiting to be revealed by a considered renovation. On the ground floor, two further rooms of around 20m2 each provide scope to expand the home into a generous two-level layout. One has its own independent entrance, and both could be connected internally to create a proper kitchen and living area below. RIGHT BY THE BEACH KNOWLEDGEABLE LOCALS FAVOUR The small rocky coves of Kalura are a well-kept secret. Many visitors to Cefalù never discover them, while the locals head here to escape the crowds in high season. The beach catches the morning sun and the water is clear and sheltered. Several hotels, bars and restaurants are within a short walk, including the Michelin-noted Il Capone at the five-star Hotel Le Calette. A lovely twenty-minute stroll past the lighthouse takes you into the heart of Cefalù, with its medieval streets, Arab-Norman cathedral, atmospheric piazzas and famous golden beach. You can park right outside your front door, too, which is a real advantage over the old town. The Madonie Natural Park is twenty minutes inland, and Palermo’s international airport about an hour to the west. A RENOVATION PROJECT THAT MAKES FINANCIAL SENSE A full renovation, from roof replacement to new systems and finishes, is estimated at €70,000 to €110,000. The total investment, including purchase, would still be well below the going rate for a finished home in this location. Demand for summer holiday rentals in Cefalù is strong, making this an attractive prospect for a buyer who wants a coastal retreat that can also earn its keep. Additional rooms within the same building may become available in the future, offering the chance to grow the property further. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Giulia - Trapani With a private terrace, a garden plot and an asking price well below the Sicilian average, Casa Giulia is an affordable renovation opportunity on the outskirts of Trapani. A BLANK CANVAS AT GROUND LEVEL The property is a ground-floor apartment with an open-plan living area, kitchen and bathroom, plus a large storage room with direct vehicle access from the street. The interior layout is ready to be reimagined by a new owner. Above the property is a rooftop terrace that belongs to the apartment alone, and adjoining it is a private plot of land. These outdoor spaces can be connected to create a garden – a combination you would not expect to find in a city-fringe property at this price. GATEWAY TO THE EGADI ISLANDS AND WESTERN SICILY'S FINEST BEACHES Casa Giulia sits less than a kilometre from the motorway exit for Trapani. The city’s beaches are three kilometres away, and the port – where ferries leave for Favignana, Levanzo and Marettimo – is a short drive. The famous salt flats stretch along the coast to the south, and the medieval citadel of Erice is reached by cable car or a winding drive up the mountain. San Vito Lo Capo, the Zingaro nature reserve and Palermo are all within easy reach. In the immediate neighbourhood you will find a supermarket, pharmacies and local shops. The property is in the municipality of Erice, but at sea level – the lower district that blends seamlessly into Trapani, not the medieval hill town above. A RENOVATION WITH RENTAL POTENTIAL The property needs a full renovation: electrical work, bathroom fixtures and new windows. It is currently unconnected to electricity and water, though the mains run along the street outside and connection is straightforward. All planning documentation is in order, including a certificate of habitability. A well-finished property in this location would have clear appeal on the short-term rental market, with the Egadi Islands and Trapani’s beaches drawing visitors throughout the year. At its asking price, Casa Giulia is an accessible way into one of the most undervalued corners of the Sicilian property market. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Enza - Casteldaccia Ready to use from day one and already generating rental income, Casa Enza is a modern four-level villa in a leafy residential street on the edge of Casteldaccia, on Sicily's north coast between Palermo and Cefalù. TWO APARTMENTS IN ONE VILLA The dual-entrance layout divides the property naturally into two independent homes. The owners currently live in the bright, well-equipped lower apartment, complete with bespoke kitchen, double bedroom and outdoor cooking area with a wood-fired oven. The lower apartment measures 123m2 and offers a contemporary open-plan living area with its own independent entrance. Upstairs two double bedrooms open onto corner balconies with a glimpse of the sea, and a loft conversion adds a mansard apartment with automated skylights that can function as a studio. Air conditioning throughout and excellent thermal insulation keep the villa comfortable in every season. SEA VIEWS FROM THE ROOFTOP TERRACE- A HOLIDAYMAKER'S DELIGHT At the top the loft conversion opens onto a spectacular private terrace with a panoramic sea view. The neighbourhood is green and leafy, and on the horizons the hills of this rugged stretch of coastline are on full display. The three upper floors operate as a licensed holiday rental with CIR and CIN registrations in place. You could easily continue that arrangement and generate a strong income stream, or unite everything into one large family residence. COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS, WALKABLE NEIGHBOURHOOD Despite the quiet, edge-of-town location, the whole of the small town of Casteldaccia, with bakeries, cafés and restaurants, is within walking distance. The local train station puts you in central Palermo in twenty minutes, while Cefalù is around forty minutes by motorway. The nearest beach is only a couple of kilometres away, and the spectacular headland around Monte Catalfano to the north offers a wealth of coves and bays that are perfect to explore by land or sea. VALUE AND POTENTIAL This is the best of Sicily from all angles – convenient for the city, immersed in natural beauty and with the friendly welcome of a small town. Whether you make Casa Enza your new home or a foray into the island's burgeoning tourist market, it is a spacious, perfectly presented house that offers stellar value for money at this asking price.
