Sea View Project - CollesanoA partially completed hilltop villa offering panoramic views across olive groves to the Tyrrhenian Sea, Sea View Project is situated midway between Collesano and Lascari on Sicily's north coast.The structure and landThe load-bearing structure was completed around 1995 and covers approximately 150m² across two floors – 100m² on the ground floor and 48m² on the first floor. Internal heights reach 4 metres at the ridge, and large openings provide excellent natural light. Both upstairs rooms have sea view balconies. The internal layout is completely flexible as only partition walls remain to be installed.The plot extends to nearly 18,000m² of unfenced land currently planted with olive, almond and peach trees alongside Mediterranean scrub. The terrain slopes from 280m to 260m above sea level, with the steeper front section suitable for terracing and the gentler slopes ideal for cultivation.Location and accessThe property lies along the SP128 road connecting Lascari (5–7 minutes) to Collesano (20 minutes). Cefalù and its beaches are 20 minutes west, whilst Palermo and its international airport are an hour away. Access is via a dirt road requiring some basic repairs. The position offers total privacy with no direct neighbours, just rolling countryside and that exceptional view north across the Gulf of Termini Imerese.Completion requirementsAll systems need to be installed from scratch, giving complete design freedom for water, electricity, heating, cooling and photovoltaic systems. Completion to a high standard would require approximately £200,000, addressing visible damp from weather exposure, installing all infrastructure, and fitting out to your specification. A swimming pool would cost an additional £30,000. The property shows no obvious structural damage despite decades of exposure, though terrace subsidence on the left side requires assessment during renovation.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Villa delle Palme - PartinicoA true luxury property, Villa delle Palme is one of the best examples of a modern villa to be found in the west of Sicily.250M2 of stylishly designed indoor spaceThe three-bedroom home has been built on an extra-large scale, with all of the main living spaces as large as you could possibly need. The kitchen-diner is a beautiful 7 x 7 room with a perfectly fitted kitchen, a long breakfast bar and still plenty of space for cupboards and a dining suite. The sun room at the front of the property makes for a unique lounge, with full glazing on three sides giving you the sense of sitting out in the garden.Each of the three bedrooms has its own en-suite bathroom with a shower. The master is especially luxurious, with a vast bedroom overlooking the green lawn to the front of the villa, and a bathroom-cum-dressing room that might genuinely be the size of your first apartment. The layout is completed by a little entrance hall and a pair of store cupboards. An irresistible private poolEven by the standards of private pools, we think you'd have to agree that this one is an absolute beauty. Given enormous room to breathe in the ample back garden, but served by not one but two nearby pagodas, it's a 120,000 litre gem framed in a nearly white stone that makes the turquoise waters an extraordinary eye-popping colour on a sunny day. The rest of the 5,600m2 garden is no less impressive, with highlights including the row of mature palm trees that run the length of the driveway, the huge expanse of green lawn in sturdy tropical grass and the fascinating variety of ornamental plants which have been around the entire property. A pool house contains all the equipment necessary to take care of the water and the gardens that surround it.No expense spared to make a sustainable homeThe villa is blessed with direct sunlight from dawn to dusk, and the sellers have taken full advantage of this enviable natural gift. The entire roof has been covered in photovoltaic panels, which combine to generate a huge 16kW of power. There is also a 10kW storage battery, to make sure that as little as possible of what is generated ever goes to waste.There is also an autonomous water supply: a well rises in the back garden and this is used to fill the pool, supply the house and even fill a gigantic 100,000 litre cistern which ensures you against even the longest of dry spells.Convenient for beach, city and airportThe nearest sandy beach is just a ten minute drive away, and the town of Partinico even closer. With beautiful attractions like the seafront of Castellammare del Golfo, the nature reserve of Lo Zingaro, the archaeological site at Segesta and Sicily's largest city, Palermo, all within easy reach, the location of Villa delle Palme could hardly be better. You can reach the nearest airport in just twenty minutes.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Casa Carmelo - AgrigentoA three-bedroom villa with sea-view balcony, Casa Carmelo is a beautiful holiday home in Sicily's southern region of Agrigento.500m from the seaThe waves of the Mediterranean wash up against Sicily's south coast just beyond the end of the quiet cul-de-sac on which Casa Carmelo is found. With a fabulous sandy beach only a kilometre from your front door you'll never grow tired of coastal walks or long sunny days in the sand and surf. The coastline faces south-west, making it the perfect spot from which to enjoy the island's famous sunsets.This district of the region of Agrigento is a quiet, residential one. While the nearest shops and amenities need a car to reach easily, they are only a short drive away and the no-through road means that you'll experience almost no noise from traffic or neighbours. The gardens and fields nearby are green and verdant, with plenty of citrus and olive trees amongst many other forms of agriculture in evidence. Needless to say, this guarantees a bounty of locally produced fruit and vegetables.Two fully independent apartmentsCasa Carmelo offers 138m2 of internal space, divided between two floors. Each of these, however, can function as a private apartment. There is a bathroom on each, a kitchenette built into one corner of the upstairs living room and a separate one on the ground floor. An external staircase lets you enter the upper property without disturbing anyone downstairs, and a lockable door at the top of the imposing indoor staircase affords privacy to both halves of the property.The rest of the ground floor is a large living room measuring about 50m2, which the current owners have made use of as a studio space, with a double bed under the stairs. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, so even if you don't plan to do this you can sleep six in comfort, even without adding sofa beds in either of the living rooms. The ground floor enjoys a shaded veranda directly outside the front entrance, while anyone staying upstairs will love the ample balcony with its partial sea view away to the south.The garden of Casa Carmelo is spacious and well-maintained, and the whole property is in excellent condition. The windows are new, with mosquito blinds and external blackout shutters, and there are air conditioning units in all of the rooms.A region filled with treasuresAnyone familiar with Sicily will know that Agrigento is primarily famous for the 'Valley of the Temples', a huge archaeological complex that is home to the remains of the city of the Greek city of Akragas. The vast temples and other remains found there are one of the most important sites for ancient history to be found anywhere in Europe. The site begins just fifteen minutes' drive from Casa Carmelo.Only a little further up the road is the beautiful white cliff known as the 'Scala dei Turchi', or the Turkish Steps. With its pristine strata glistening against the deep blue sea by day, or reflecting the colours of the sunset as dusk falls, this is an unmissable sight that will never fail to enthral visitors.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Two large chimneys transport the smoke above the tiled wooden canopy overhead. There is also a sink, fridge and worktop.

You could easily feed twenty or more people at once, a testament to the role that communal living - and above all communal eating – have always played in the life of Casa Mariolina. Of course, there is also an indoor kitchen space to rustle up a simpler snack. But if you love nature and you love to entertain, this cottage in the hills would make an unbeatable place to combine the two.A versatile indoor spaceThe open plan cottage consists of a single large room, with a lounge area that becomes a bedroom with the use of a sofa bed, a dining space in the middle and a kitchen at the far end. Two separate entrances would allow you to create a proper bedroom if you wanted to. The bathroom has a shower and is neatly finished with a clean white tile.Completing the estate, which spans three parcels of land, is a storeroom for all of the equipment necessary to maintain the land and its trees.
