Palazzo Peri - Collesano A vast complex covering 800m2, right in the heart of a historic Sicilian town, Palazzo Peri stands at the very heart of Collesano in the Madonie Natural Park. An eighteenth century building with wonderful history, it would be a wonderfully inspiring project to take on. With over twenty rooms, on three storeys, and an entire deconsecrated church included in the sale, we're not overselling this when we describe it as one of the most remarkable real estate opportunities to have passed across our desk since we first entered the industry A STATELY HOME WITH A BAROQUE FACADE The living space is huge, with sixteen rooms plus kitchens and bathrooms. Almost all of these are large enough to become a spacious double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. Two at the front of the property have ornately decorated balconies, and those on the top floor have fabulous views over the rooftops of Collesano to the green hills of the surrounding natural park. The marble staircases and tiled floors are still in very good condition for a building of this age. The plastering will obviously need to be completely redone, and the connections for plumbing and electricity installed as if from scratch. But there are beautiful elements to salvage, like the sturdy antique doors and the built-in pizza oven on the second floor kitchen. THE OLD CHAPEL, COURTYARD AND STOREROOMS The church is a large space, the size of a typical chapel, with a three-storey high roof and a simple layout. Off this, to the side, is a Sacristy which occupies two floors. To the rear is an L-shaped courtyard which is currently covered in grass, and runs up a slope. It receives sunshine in the middle of the day and could become an attractive little garden. Lastly, on the far side of this courtyard, you will find a complex of seven separate storerooms which are each big enough to hold machinery or large quantities of produce. AN OPPORTUNITY YOU REALLY DON'T SEE EVERY DAY The chance to restore a building with this kind of history – and this much sheer space – is a really rare and precious one. It could become a one-of-a-kind luxury villa for an investor who wants to entertain large numbers of guests in truly lavish style. Alternatively, perhaps its future lies as separate apartments – it should be possible to realise at least six or seven, all of good size. As a final possibility, it would be very easy to picture Palazzo Peri as a boutique luxury hotel, with a spa and sun terrace, offering huge characterful rooms in a magical medieval context. The bells of the old Chiesa Madre of Collesano echo from the fortified tower just across the street, and the cobbled streets of this enchanting old town are as atmospheric as the surrounding mountain- and sea-views are breathtaking.

Casa Manuela - Selinunte Description Casa Manuela is an apartment in a vacation complex located just a few hundred meters from a fantastic sandy beach. The town of Selinunte belongs to the municipality of Castelvetrano, which is located in the province of Trapani. This coastal town is home to the largest archaeological site in Europe, the archaeological park of Selinunte. Around 2500 years ago, the Greeks settled here and built a large city and temple complex. The small town of Selinunte used to be visited by holidaymakers only in July and August, but in recent years the season has become much longer, with tourists flocking here as early as April and staying until November. The apartment I am describing here was completed around 20 years ago along with 42 other houses, each of which has four apartments. This apartment is located in the lowest row and therefore right on the edge of the complex, you can reach the direct path to the fine sandy beach through a gate just 20 meters away. This vacation complex is organized in such a way that the administration maintains the green areas and the streets and together with the garbage fee and the water the monthly charge amounts to 70 €. According to the land registry extract, this apartment is 60 m2 in size, but the living area is approximately 55 m2 and the terrace has the same floor area. The apartment has two bedrooms, a bathroom with shower and a relatively spacious eat-in kitchen. The apartment is very nicely furnished and the furniture will be left in the apartment. As the two owners are working and live about 150 km away, they no longer have time to come and would therefore like to sell this apartment. This property is certainly not an investment for people who prefer to be alone all day. Families do not only live here in summer, but it is more likely to be an older clientele. Because this vacation complex is a little older, the trees and vegetation are extremely beautiful. You don't have to invest anything in this property, you can move straight in. Surroundings This vacation complex is located a few kilometers from Selinunte, about 5 minutes from the town by car. You can walk to the beach from here, it is about 500 meters from here begins a nature reserve that stretches for several kilometers and where you can make beautiful walks.

Casa Puccio - Sciacca This typical Sicilian old town house is located in the center of the south-western Sicilian port town of Sciacca. Surroundings The house is certainly more than 100 years old, and the walls are correspondingly thick. The old town of Sciacca is located on a hill, so that this house can only be reached by a very small car. You usually park in the market square in the upper part of the town and then walk about 100-150 m to the house. The property The house has the typical charm of a Sicilian old town property, it extends over three floors and as it is situated on a slope, both the first floor and the first floor have direct access from a small street. Theoretically, the first floor could also be lived in independently and separated from the rest of the house. There is a toilet on both the first floor and the second floor. From the second floor, a relatively comfortable internal staircase leads to the top floor, where we find a roof terrace of around 40 m2, which also offers a partial sea view between the houses. The house originally belonged to a Sicilian family who emigrated to Germany and the current owners, the heirs of the former emigrants, are no longer interested in this house, which is why they want to sell it. The house is in an average condition, it can also be described as inhabited, especially since the smaller, damp areas in the house are still being repaired by the current owners. These damp patches are not so much due to the ingress of moisture from outside, but mainly because the house has not been lived in for many months. Options The owners are asking a z#price of €57,000 for this key-ready house with the existing furnishings, which seems justified given the approximately €35,000 invested in recent years

Outside, an 800m2 garden is planted with all manner of fruit trees, and well maintained the brickwork terrace is the perfect spot to host a barbecue, enjoy an aperitivo or just take in the views in complete peace and quiet. TWIN APARTMENTS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN KITCHEN, BATHROOM AND PRIVATE ENTRANCE The upper apartment is the more complete of the two, with some fabulous traditional floor tiles and the benefits of a complete refurbishment that took place just 20 years ago. You'll find characterful vaulted ceilings, two bedrooms and a living room with a Juliet balcony and a great view. A separate kitchen and a bathroom with a shower complete the floor plan. The ground floor is simpler, divided into only three spaces plus the bathroom. Like the upper apartment there is an entrance hall, but the remaining room has been divided into a kitchen-diner and a bedroom-living room. The decoration on this level is much simpler and you'll need to put some work into this level to realise its full potential, but the views from the patio outside and the character that radiates from this historic building will make it entirely worth your while.

There is a nice terrace on the roof of the house, but at the moment there are no fixed stairs to reach it. The house is habitable and does not require any special works. However, at the moment the property is not connected to the electricity grid. The current owners supply electricity via a generator. Ideally, the property could be equipped with a photovoltaic system that would make it energy self-sufficient (in Italy, there are currently significant government subsidies for the installation of photovoltaic systems and energy storage). Alternatively, one could apply for a connection to the national electricity grid. The property does not have a heating system and there are no heat pumps installed. The house is equipped with a certified Imhoff tank. Water is supplied by the three wells on the property. A few dozen metres away from the house is the second building, which is used as a storage room. All the equipment necessary for cultivating the land is kept in it. The storage consists of two rooms. In one of the two rooms, a small tractor is currently parked, which is useful for cleaning the land. The tractor could be subject to negotiation, but is not included in the sale price of the property.

Villa Gioiosa Between sky and sea, nestled in the hills in the reserved area of S. Lucia di Gioiosa Marea, in a paradisiacal setting between woods, mountains and sea, the villa offers a priceless view, a typical example of the beauty of the northern coast of Sicily. The building is an optimal synthesis of the characteristics of the place where it is located: a rugged landscape by the sea with a breathtaking view. The property is less than 3 km from the centre of Gioiosa Marea, where all the main services and shops can be found, and of course miles of beaches and sea. The village is right in front of the Aeolian Islands, which are easy to see on sunny days. THE VILLA Leaving the motorway, you drive along a beautiful state road in the countryside, accompanied for long stretches by the view of the sea (driving this road in an Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider must be the dream of many...). After leaving the state road, you reach the property via a side road, which is in poor condition for a short stretch, but still easily passable. The villa is arranged on three levels and has two independent entrances. The main entrance is on the first floor. Access is via an external staircase that leads to a large "open hallway". Entering the house, one finds a large living area equipped with a thermal fireplace and a kitchen separated from the living room by a brick archway. Thanks to the large windows in the living room, the house is very light, airy and cool. From the perfectly renovated and furnished kitchen, one has access to a balcony that extends over the entire right side of the house. Access to the sleeping area is through a door that separates the two areas. A small hallway on the left leads to the first master bedroom, which is also in excellent condition, is very large and has access to the balcony. On the right side of the hallway is a second large room with a window overlooking the green forest at the back of the house. Finally, in the middle of the hallway is the finely tiled main bathroom with whirlpool bath. A door in the kitchen area leads to the second floor of the house. This is where the current owners have fitted the laundry room. The presence of a fully finished terrace of over 100 m2 with an impressive 360° view of the surrounding nature would suggest another use for this space. As if all this were not enough, a door in the hallway leads down to the minus 1 floor, where there is a real studio flat with its own entrance, consisting of a kitchen, bathroom with shower and sleeping area. Here, too, the condition is excellent, everything is perfectly furnished and equipped. If desired, it is possible to enter the studio from a large, uncovered terrace, which also offers an incomparable view. The house is built on a plot of 1100sqm, where there are cherry, fig, chestnut and olive trees as well as ornamental plants. If you want, you also have enough space for a small vegetable garden. At the moment, the owners have put a large outdoor pool on the left side of the house, which could also be replaced by a permanent pool. Below the house runs a bridge of the motorway, it is only a short distance, from the tunnel exit to the tunnel entrance. Outside you can hear it when the wind comes from the north. Not inside the house. Surely this is also the reason why the house is offered quite cheaply. SERVICES Heating system: gas boiler and thermo fireplace Water: Connection to the municipal waterworks. Water always available Hot water: boiler and thermo fireplace Sewerage: Connection to the municipal sewerage system Internet: Excellent network coverage, download speed over 100 mb per second. Windows: Double glazing and adjustable external shutters Air conditioning: rooms and studio with heat pump cold/hot CONCLUSIONS The villa is definitely an excellent investment for those lucky enough to buy it! Built in 2012, 10 years later the house seems to have just been built. Both inside and outside it is in excellent condition. Everything is perfectly maintained and furnished. Especially the interior is impeccably maintained and needs no renovation. The materials used are of excellent quality, the terracotta tiles are perfect, the bathrooms are very well equipped, the main kitchen and also that of the studio flat are made of wood, complete with all appliances and in perfect condition. Also very positive is the presence of double-glazed windows and adjustable external shutters which, together with the thermal cover and the thermal fireplace, make the house warm in the mild winter and very cool in the summer. The terrace on the second floor and the uncovered patio on the first floor are little used so far, but could be equipped with barbecues, sofas and verandas to enjoy the magnificent view in the company of friends and family. The house is being sold as you see it, fully furnished and ready to go. You don't have to deal with builders, architects, surveyors and furniture stores.... Everything is already prepared. Pack your bags, your new home in Sicily is already waiting for you.

Casa Marino - Gangi IN ITALY'S ORIGINAL “MOST BEAUTIFUL VILLAGE”: TWO BEDROOM RENOVATED PROPERTY FOR SALE IN THE MADONIE NATURAL PARK Where is Italy's most beautiful village? Opinions will vary as widely as traditional pasta recipes, but the community of Gangi in the Madonie hills of Sicily has a better claim than most. In 2014, a heritage association called I borghi piu belli d'Italia (“Italy's most beautiful villages”) held what became an annual competition to find the nation's most picturesque community – and Gangi ran out the inaugural winner. Casa Marino is a beautiful restoration project in the historic old town of this magical hillside settlement. With a centuries-old construction giving it the sturdiest possible skeleton and no expense spared on the painstaking revamp, it is a fabulous opportunity to own a heritage property for a reasonable price A UNIQUE SHAPE AND DESIGN The house is on the end of a pair of terraces, tapering towards a wedged end that makes it look more of a tower than a family home when approached from one side. However, the four long storeys in fact combine to offer a surprisingly large 137m2 of habitable space. The narrow end of the building is a stairwell, and the wider part follows the same floor plan for the first three floors: a corridor leading past a bathroom with a large shower to a living or bedroom at the property's broadest section. LOCAL CRAFTSMANSHIP The materials used in the recent renovation are top quality, with locally produced floor tiles, sparkling bathroom fittings and crisp plaster accentuating the sections of the original, nearly metre-thick, stone walls which have been left on display in large sections of the property. The roof has also been repaired and is now in excellent condition. Only the stairwell is in need of work at this stage, and there are certainly no issues which would stop you moving in as soon as you complete the purchase. A really unique property, you won't regret taking a longer look at Casa Marino.

Casa Pietro - Mistretta Casa Pietro is located in the municipality of Reitano in the province of Messina. It is a charming country house surrounded by greenery and with a beautiful view of the sea and the Aeolian Islands. The property can be reached along a state road in perfect condition that leads from the motorway exit of Santo Stefano di Camastra to the hills of Mistretta in just a few minutes. Driving along this road among the hills, one can enjoy a splendid view of the sea, the landscape is truly breathtaking. The property is located at an altitude of about 600 metres. It therefore enjoys a cool, breezy climate that is especially pleasant in the spring and summer months. The house is less than 3 km from the town of Mistretta and just over 5 km from the town of Reitano. Although immersed in greenery and tranquillity, the house is only a few minutes' drive from the main commercial activities where it will be possible to find groceries, shops, restaurants and bars. The sea can be reached in less than 15 minutes by car while the beautiful Palermo is just over 100km away. The international airport Falcone Borsellino can be reached in just over 1 hour. The House The property is totally fenced off. Once through the entrance gate you will find yourself in a rustic house made of typical stone with a beautiful patio from which you can enjoy a magnificent view. From here, continuing along a stone corridor adorned with beautiful flower beds with many ornamental plants, you will find yourself on a large veranda terrace equipped with an outdoor kitchen and oven. The house is nestled among the hills, the feeling is that of being engulfed by nature and peace. The land in front of the terrace measures approximately 1,000 square metres. On it you will find several fruit trees and ornamental plants as well as an enclosure for chickens. The house has its own well and a reserve water tank of 9,000 litres. The property consists of two floors. The living area is on the first floor while the sleeping area is on the floor below. The living area has 2 entrances. The first entrance is located near the veranda terrace and gives access to a small kitchenette. Continuing on, one enters the living area which has a fireplace and a second entrance leading to the patio. The first floor also has a bathroom with shower. On the patio there is a staircase leading down to the sleeping area. This has a separate entrance not connected to the first floor. Here one can find 2 bedrooms and a further bathroom. On this same level there are then two small storerooms used today one as storage for gardening tools and one as storage for suitcases or little-used objects. The property is inhabited and habitable. Nevertheless, in our opinion, a general freshening up of the house could considerably improve the aesthetic condition. The windows are partly aluminium without double glazing and partly wooden, also without double glazing. Potentially, the house is a little paradise. With some renovation work, one could have a rustic stone house at an affordable cost. The real attraction of this country house is definitely its location with its panoramic view of the hills, the crystal clear sea and the Aeolian Islands in the background. Enjoying the sunset on the veranda or organising an open-air dinner under the stars, admiring the spectacle of nature that surrounds you could be an experience hard to forget. Having all this always at one's disposal for many could be a real dream The house is served by: Electricity: Active Water: Well with 9,000 litre cistern Hot Water: Boiler Sewer: Black Well Internet: Good network coverage, download speed 40 mega
