Casa Gullotti - San Marco D'AlunzioA pair of properties contained within the same detached villa, Casa Gullotti comprises a fully renovated and joyfully traditional three-bedroom home on the upper floor, and a restoration project space on the ground floor.Set into the hillside, just three kilometres inland from Sicily's north coast in the lower hills of the Nebrodi Natural Park, it enjoys fabulous sea views from the windows, gardens and all three balconies.A Classic Home Beautifully RestoredThe upper floor is a real classic of Sicilian style. The patterned floor tiles are locally produced and a great example of the design school that finished many of the great houses of the region. You will also note the quality of the marble finishings in the two bathrooms, and the characteristic fixed oven in the kitchen, built into a solid counter that has been finished in a bright checkerboard tile.The three double bedrooms are all large, and two have their own balconies. One overlooks the sea to the north, while the other gets day-round sunshine on the souther side of the property. In the middle, facing east towards the region's spectacular sunsets, is a living room with a balcony of its own. 120m2 to RenovateThe ground floor is identical in size, with a front door to the south and direct access onto the gardens. It is in need of a total renovation, including new plastering, wiring and plumbing, bathrooms, kitchen and all decoration. However, the structure of the building is sound.

Case Vasi - CalderaroTwo halves of the same villa, Casa Vasi and Casa Calderaro are twin semi-detached homes with glorious panoramic views of the Nebrodi Park. Just outside the small town of San Salvatore di Fitalia, 10km inland and 550m above sea level, they are a chance to escape from the stresses and intensity of the world in total harmony with the surrounding countryside.The houses can be bought separately or together. Each has its own sizeable plot of land, and shared use of an access road. Casa Vasi is ready to be lived in straight away, while Casa Calderaro is a restoration project.A home to use straight away...With 70m2 of living space on the upper floor and a 25m2 basement, Casa Vasi is compact but efficient in its use of space. A long, thin home with four rooms, it opens directly into a large living room with an open fireplace and garden-view window. The bedroom is probably the nicest space, with plenty of light, especially in the morning. It offers a balcony with a fabulous view, looking down along the valley to the sea. There is also a neat kitchen with a larder and a bathroom with a shower.Casa Vasi is in good condition, with a recent renovation having completely overhauled the property. The wiring and plumbing are in good condition, as is the roof. You'll find neat, well-maintained plaster on the walls, aluminium windows with wooden shutters and a roof that's in a fine state of repair. It is sold fully furnished, with all contents as seen....and one to renovateCasa Calderaro is a similar size and shape to Casa Vasi, and also has that wonderful valley-view balcony. There the similarities end, however, as this house has been completely stripped of all plaster, partitions and utilities. With the exception of a few floor tiles which you might choose to reuse it's a blank canvas.The windows on the long side of the space have a lovely hillside view, better in fact than the other apartment has to offer. The roof seems to be well maintained too. And there is the same basement underneath the main living area. However, a significant investment of time and capital will be needed to turn this back into a modern living space.For a full description of the property please visit our website Want to know more?

Palazzo Peri - CollesanoA 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 industryA stately home with a baroque facadeThe 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 storeroomsThe 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. Want to know more?

Casa Puccio - SciaccaThis typical Sicilian old town house is located in the center of the south-western Sicilian port town of Sciacca.SurroundingsThe 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 propertyThe 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.OptionsThe 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 Want to know more?

Casa Marino - GangiIn italy's original “most beautiful village”: two bedroom renovated property for sale in the madonie natural parkWhere 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 priceA unique shape and designThe 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 craftsmanshipThe 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. Want to know more?
