Casa Manuela - SelinunteDescriptionCasa 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.SurroundingsThis 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. Meer weten?

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 Meer weten?

In addition, the large terrace has been renovated with beautiful wall panels and the large garden areas have been ‘weeded’ and covered with protective film and mulch. A new lemon tree was also planted. For this reason, the exterior facades are now well preserved and maintained so that they do not require any intervention, and the interiors have also been perfectly restored.

Nobles Anwesen - Aci RealeThis 1000 m² estate in the absolute centre of Aci Reale was bought 20 years ago by a wealthy German and completely restored over eight years of painstaking and elaborate work. The buildings are built around a very beautiful inner courtyard, which also houses a swimming pool, which is currently covered by a wooden platform and a conservatory. The entire property has 30 rooms and 15 bathrooms alone. Everything is more than luxurious, from the bathrooms to the ornate ceilings and marble floors. The origins of this building go back to a Spanish Baroque family who had their headquarters here. Over the years, the property fell into disrepair and was only rediscovered and fully restored by the current owner. There really isn't a corner of this property that isn't in perfect condition. Of course, there is central gas heating and a system for cooling and monitoring.It is not easy to describe this property here. Every room is decorated differently, the owner's love for this property is evident everywhere. You simply have to visit this house yourself and wander through the rooms. There are several kitchens and also five separate flats that can be rented out individually and are not furnished but have been completely renovated. The main house, where the owner lives all year round, has a billiard room, for example, and its own bar, which almost looks like a small pub and is equipped with everything that goes with it. The dining room has room for 20 people, the owner's bedroom is more than luxurious, there is a huge dressing room with an infinite number of cupboards, a huge private bathroom, etc.The property also has several terraces on different levels, which also offer a view over the whole city to the sea. As Catania is easy to reach by plane from many cities, I recommend that anyone interested book a flight and let us and the owner show them round the house.Determining the purchase price is of course difficult, as on the one hand there is the almost lavish interior including all the furniture, for which the owner claims to have spent around € 10 million including the purchase price and renovation work. On the other hand, there is of course a real price per square metre in the centre of Aci Reale, which does not provide for such purchase prices. Nevertheless, the vendor would like to achieve a real price for this property that does not correspond to what he has spent so far, but nevertheless does justice to the value of the property, the renovation work and the furnishings. Meer weten?

Villa Presti - CefaluTWO-bedroom, SEA-view house in cefalù's green hillsSurrounded by woodland, at the top of one of the lower peaks of the Madonie Natural Park but just twelve minutes' drive from Cefalù, Chalet Presti offers a sensational blend of seclusion and convenience.With Cefalù one of Sicily's blue chip tourist markets, this is a very solid investment for an enticing price per square metre – the total covered area spans a huge 240m2. We see Chalet Presti as being ripe for a makeover with the addition of a pair of extra bedrooms, giving it a sleeping capacity of eight plus, and significant potential as a vacation rental if you don't plan to live there 365 days a year.Vast storage space for cars or agricultural machineryBuilt on two floors and a mezzanine, the house takes advantage of the hillside to offer beautiful views from every room. The ground floor is currently a huge garage, or storage space, but there is tons of potential to put this to a more efficient use. Outside is a terrace which overlooks the green hillside rolling down to a wide stretch of coastline which is visible throughout.Bright and spacious living areaOn the upper floor is the main living area of the house. Here you will find a pair of bedrooms and twin bathrooms, as well as a spacious family kitchen. However, the majority of the space is taken up with a chalet-style, high-ceilinged open space living room, with a mezzanine gallery built on a slight overhang. This intelligent bit of design has created what is currently used as an additional living area and a dining space. Of course it could be changed in something more efficient, like 2 new bedrooms. OAKS, corks and pinesSet in an ample wooded estate of 5500m2, Chalet Presti is a wonderful getaway in a prestigious district where many of the island's rich and famous spend their summers. Meer weten?

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. Meer weten?

The entire skeleton, save for one small internal room, has been recently rebuilt to a high, seismic-safe standard, with new walls, roof, floors, doors, and balconies. Even the pipes are still gleaming!Take advantage of the chance to do the fun part – the interior design, the finishing touches – and end up with the Sicilian hideaway you always dreamt of, with a fraction of the time and expense needed to take on the majority of the renovation projects the island has to offer. Meer weten?
