Huis te koop - Trabia (Italië)

Villa Emanuela - TrabiaSpacious and beautifully presented, villa emanuela is a detached three-bedroom family home outside Trabia in the province of Palermo. Just 800m from the nearest beach as the crow flies, you can enjoy a sea view from the sunny terraces, the best of which has been created using the entire flat roof of the single storey property.Three bedrooms and some great family spacesThe floor plan is typically Sicilian, with one end of the house used in the daytime, and the other at night. The former includes a roomy entrance hall and a very large kitchen-diner, where you can soak up the sunshine that comes from the large south-facing window. The three bedrooms can all sleep two people, although one of them is currently being used as a study.The sun room was once an uncovered portico which was glazed on three sides. This has created a fabulous space to use all year round, with the windows open in summer and closed to keep the heat in during the short Sicilian winters.Walking distance from the beachAlthough the area is very rural, and you certainly won't feel nearly as on top of your neighbours as you can in the residences and more intensive developments nearer to the beach, the road to the seaside is just 1.4km. If that feels too far on a hot day, you can cover the ground in minutes on a bike or by car.The property is also conveniently located for Sicily's most important motorway, which connects Palermo in the east with Messina in the west. The location is really ideal for a buyer who wants to explore everything Sicily has to offer, with nowhere on the island more than a three hour drive away.In great condition for year-round useThe property is extremely energy efficient, with solar panels to generate electricity and heat water on the roof, and recently installed windows to insulate the interior. The south-facing windows and sun room are great for catching the warmth of the sun even on a winter's day, and as a final comfort, all of the rooms have gas-powered radiators.In the summer, you'll love the air conditioners distributed throughout, and the shade offered by the trees in the garden and canopies in front of the sun room and on the roof. Plus, of course, you can cool off with a dip in the perfect clear water at any time you fancy!For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Villa Roberto - TrabiaRecently renovated to one of Italy’s highest energy ratings, Villa Roberto is a modern three-bedroom semi-detached villa perched above the Tyrrhenian coast in Trabia, between Palermo and Cefalù.Green credentials and low running costsThe A4 energy rating is backed up by a 6kW photovoltaic system with 10kW battery storage, thermally broken windows and new air conditioning throughout. An EV charging point in the four-car parking area completes the picture. Running costs will be a fraction of what you would expect from a traditional Sicilian property, and the environmental footprint is minimal.Sea views, exposed beams and contemporary designBuilt on an elevated plot, the villa rewards a short climb with panoramic views of the Tyrrhenian Sea from a broad wraparound terrace. The open-plan ground floor is flooded with light through large windows that frame the coastline, with a modern kitchen alongside the dining and living area and a bathroom finished in jumbo-format tiles.Upstairs, the master bedroom has an exposed wooden ceiling and its own private sea-view terrace. A second bedroom opens onto a shaded rear terrace, and at the top a loft conversion provides a third bedroom with en-suite bathroom and balcony. The interiors throughout combine clean contemporary lines with natural materials that give the home a genuine warmth.Halfway between palermo and cefalu'Trabia is on the motorway between Sicily’s two most popular north-coast destinations. Palermo and its international airport are about half an hour to the west, Cefalù the same distance to the east. The fishing village of San Nicola l’Arena is just minutes away, with boat hire, harbourside restaurants and sandy beaches along the coast.Pool potential and room to growThe terraced garden has ample space for a private pool, and a generous 15m² ground-floor room offers the flexibility to add a fourth bedroom or a home office. At this asking price, a well-built, energy-efficient property with sea views and genuine room for further improvement represents serious value on the Sicilian north coast.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?
