Appartamento Francesca - PollinaSmall, affordable vacation apartment near the sea on the north coast of Sicily.SurroundingsPollina is a seaside resort about 15 km east of Cefalù This small, tranquil village lies at the foot of the Madonie mountains. Highway 113, which connects Palermo and Messina, runs through the village. Before the highway was built, it was the main link between east and west Sicily. Especially in summer, many Italian families live here and have a vacation apartment in the village. A well-known Italian tour operator has a very large vacation center here.The propertyCasa Francesca is a very small apartment (approx. 30 sqm) on the second floor of an apartment building. Behind the house entrance on the first floor there is an open staircase through which you reach the apartment.You enter this apartment and find yourself in a hallway from which a bathroom and an eat-in kitchen lead off. There is a balcony on the south side and on the roof of the house. This apartment of approximately 40 m² has an exclusive roof terrace with partial sea views. This roof terrace faces south, i.e. Not towards the sea. The apartment is in need of renovation in my opinion, but it is habitable. The sellers would also leave the furniture in the apartment, but it is very simple and also worn out. This small apartment is certainly not a dream property by the sea, but it would be the first step towards acquiring a ready-to-move-in property for little money in Sicily, for example. From here you can make very nice excursions, the beach is also within walking distance, we are talking about about 600 meters. There is plenty of parking space in front of the house and the cell phone signal reception is very good. Meer weten?

From Toretta, it is a 10-minute drive to Carini, which is on the coast. There are also shopping facilities in Toretta, but there are very large shopping centres in Carini. The quick and direct connection to Palermo airport, which can be reached from the house in about 20-25 minutes, is also convenient. Meer weten?

Plot Luca - CollesanoA vast estate on the lower hills of the Madonie Natural Park, just inland from the beaches of Lascari and Campofelice di Roccaella, Plot Luca is prime building land with a sea view. The vendor purchased it with the intention of building an entire holiday village, and is only selling due to a change of circumstances with their business partners. This project could be revived, or you might prefer to keep it for private residential use.One plot or threeThe entire estate measures 96,000m2, but the owner is willing to divide it in three equal sized tranches of 32,000m2 each. These are priced between €60,000 and €80,000. The exact details of each of the smaller plots can be found on our website.All of them would have private access without the need to offer right of way across either of the other parcels of land. The clean grassy land is similar throughout and while the lower land is 70m below the top of the property there are still great views throughout.If you would like to keep the land together it would be possible to build a luxury villa of almost unlimited size. The smaller plots will still allow for about 300m2 of indoor space each. Sea views and beaches nearbyThe foothills of the Madonie Natural Park are impressively green for land in such a hot climate, and you will love the juxtaposition of rolling meadows against the turquoise sea and deep blue sky on a clear sunny day.A fifteen minute drive will bring you to the beaches of Campofelice di Roccaella and Lascari, but the real jewel in the crown is Cefalu, 10 kilometres to the east. Here you'll find a stunning two kilometre stretch of golden sand that leads to a picture-postcard old fishing town. The Medieval history of the community is evident in the cobbled streets and the almost unique Arab-Norman architecture of the unesco-protected cathedral.Plot Luca, however, is completely untouched countryside, with hardly a soul for miles in any direction. The distant viaducts of the coastal motorway and rooftops of Campofelice on the horizon at sea level are almost the only evidence of human activity in sight.Autonomous water supplyThe land has a network of wells which collect surface water and provide irrigation to the fields. These will need some renewal work, especially if you are planning to build a tourist complex, but the plans to do this have already been created and could be viewed on request.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Casa Patti - CasteldacciaJust 150m from the nearest beach, Casa Patti is a dream for lovers of the sea. In the town of Casteldaccia, 15m east of the centre of Palermo, it enjoys great transport links and an impressive sense of seclusion. Beautifully presented, the value is evident at this asking price, especially when you consider that it is sold turnkey, just as seen in our photos and virtual tour.Bright and immediately welcomingThe property occupies the first floor of a two-storey building at the end of a short private driveway. Indoors it includes three double bedrooms, two large bathrooms, and a large kitchen-living room which opens onto the veranda.The outdoor space offers views of the nearby water, both from that veranda, which runs the entire width of the property and wraps around to one side, and from the roof terrace above.

Casa Guido - Capo d'Orlando200m above sea level on the side of a steep hill, Casa Guido offers one of the best sea views you could hope to find. The green slopes of the Nebrodi Park drop dramatically down to the crystal-clear Tyrrhenian Sea below, and the local beach is in full view. The grounds of this characterful property offer seclusion, abundant nature and phenomenal scenery.OVER 140m2 of indoor living spaceThe house has six rooms, divided at present between three distinct units, each with their own front door. Downstairs, one of these is a kitchen with a walk-in larder and a permanent wood-fired oven that you'll certainly want to find a way to retain. The next is a pair of rooms alongside this, the first of which opens directly onto the sea-view patio.Upstairs, three rooms of around 15m2 apiece are completed by a small bathroom big enough for a shower. Two of the rooms have deep balconies from which you can take in the best sea views on the property.A renovation project with incredible potentialSignificant renovation work will be needed, beginning with an overhaul of both Casa Guido's wiring and its plumbing. Electricity is already present, but you may want to lay pipes that will connect it to the municipal water and sewage mains, each around 30m from the property.It will be necessary to spend some money on the plastering and the exteriors, as well as on the 3,000m2 of gardens, which have the potential to be a beautiful space, with olive and lemon trees and of course those great panoramic views.You may also wish to add an internal staircase and a doorway between the ground floor spaces, in order to make your new purchase a bit more user-friendly. The end result, however, would be well worth the expenditure: a three-bedroom family home with over 140m2 of internal space and an unbeatable scenic location.The best of sicily's nature and community at your fingertipsThe beach that you can see from the edge of the plot is reachable in five minutes by car down a winding road. A similar journey along the coast brings you into the town of Capo d'Orlando.This is a beautiful seafront community and a well-managed town on the rise. If you haven't seen photos of the the new marina, built in 2017, they're really worth seeking out.

Plot Cinzia - CollesanoExpansive and unspoilt, the huge hillside estate that is Plot Cinzia is a dream for the kind of buyer who is at peace with nature and doesn't back away from a challenge. While the old cottage that currently stands on the southern edge of the plot will need to be rebuilt from scratch, the raw beauty of this Sicilian country land is bursting with possibility.A bird's eye view on the coastThe estate spreads over some 20 acres (80,000m2) of countryside on the western edge of the Madonie Natural Park, a few kilometres north of the picturesque little village of Collesano. The land slopes down towards the bottom of a valley which feeds into the Tyrrhenian Sea at the coastal town of Campofelice di Roccaella.The majority of the estate is woodland, home to a diverse range of trees and wildlife. The emptier pastures open up on the lower slopes to give a fabulous view of the sea in the middle distance, 8 kilometres away and about 400m downhill.The two existing buildings on the land are 100m2 and 40m2 respectively. You could work off this footprint, but the size of the pot means that the option would be available to create a much larger villa, complete with a guest house and swimming pool.Haven of biodiversityYou will find the soil fertile, with olive oil produced from trees in this region considered to be of particularly high quality. There are over a hundred olive trees on the plot at present, and one could easily imagine a buyer adding many more. You will also find a wide variety of trees and bushes, many of which bear fruit and nuts of all varieties. The land is home to numerous species of bird as well as hares, lizards and small mammals. There is already a well on the land, and you would certainly be able to achieve true sustainability and energy independence if you were to invest in solar panels to power and heat your new home.Lesws than half an hour to the beachWhile the drive into Collesano is no more than six or seven minutes, you will also find it very easy to reach the towns at sea level. Both Campofelice and Lascari have lovely stretches of coastline, and the famous resort of Cefalù is only a 35 minute drive. Palermo and its international airport can be reached in an hour.For a full description of the property please visit our website 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?

Casa Veronica - Gioiosa MareaSmall, two-storey country-style property with plot and fantastic sea views in rustic surroundings near Gioiosa Marea.The surrounding areaThis house is located approximately 500 metres above sea level on an easily navigable village road in the municipality of Gioiosa Marea in the higher Contrada Russa.The distance to the coast is 7 km. The view to the north and east from the house offers a spectacular view of the offshore Aeolian Islands and the coast towards Milazzo.The property is less than 7 km from the centre of Gioiosa Marea, where you will find a friendly community of around five thousand inhabitants. As you would expect, there are supermarkets, bars, restaurants and all the essential facilities and shops for daily needs, and of course long stretches of beach with crystal clear waters. The views from the sea are no less impressive than those from above, with views of the Aeolian Islands easily visible on sunny days.The nearest major city is Messina, an hour away by car. From here, a short ferry connection takes you to the tip of the Italian peninsula. Catania and Palermo, where Sicily's two main international airports are located, are both around two hours away by car. The glamorous seaside resorts of Taormina and Cefalù are both within easy reach.The propertyThe plot is approximately 440 m² in size and is planted with lemon trees and orange trees. The house is located about 80 metres from the village street and is accessed via a side street. The plot of land in question extends to this village road and a driveway and parking space for one car could also be created here. Neighbours live in the immediate vicinity all year round. You are not isolated here, but of course you cannot live here without a car.The house extends over two floors, which are connected by an external staircase. The roof makes a good impression and there are no infiltrations on the inside. The brick house also makes a stable impression. While the lower floor needs to be completely renovated, the upper floor makes a much better impression.You reach the upper floor via an external staircase and enter a hallway. To the right is a spacious bedroom with an east-facing window.On the ground floor you enter directly into a kitchen-living room, and to the right there is another spacious room.The ground floor is in need of total renovation, while the upper floor can be described as habitable for modest requirements.Directly adjacent to this house is a building which is also being sold but which in my opinion must either be demolished or completely renovated.OpportunitiesThe location of this property is unique. The view of the nearby sea is indescribably beautiful. Especially in spring everything blooms and turns green here, fruit trees, olives, walnut trees and oaks surround the house.The vendor is asking € 49,000.00 for this property, which may be easily negotiable. This would be the ideal property for a handyman or craftsman. The house is in need of renovation, especially the ground floor. I would perhaps demolish the outbuilding and build a nice panoramic terrace instead. 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.

Appartamenti Martina amp; Silvia - BagheriaAppartamento Martina and Appartamento Silva are twin apartments on the top floor of a modern condominium on the outskirts of Bagheria. Each is offered for sale separately.The vendor is also offering a loft space with extra bathroom above the pair, with an asking price of €30,000. They will consider offers for buying two or all three of the units together.100m2, Three Bedrooms and Two BathroomsBoth apartments have the same floor plan, with a large living room-diner the main space, opening onto a huge 15m2 balcony. To one side is the spacious kitchen, and to the other is a little corridor leading to the three double bedrooms and two bathrooms.Two of the bedrooms offer balcony access. One, like the kitchen, has French windows onto the main balcony, shared with the living room. The master bedroom has a smaller, private balcony facing north, with (in the case of both apartments) a sea view, looking north towards Monte Catalfano and the coast of Mongerbino. A Personal ChoiceThe main difference between the pair is that while Martina's long balcony looks west, Silva's faces east. Martina has a view of the green stretch of land between Bagheria and Aspra, and also takes in the Gulf of Palermo and the mountains which ring the city on the horizon. Silvia's, on the other hand, is a city view which enjoys some direct sunshine in the mornings.Neither apartment is fitted or furnished, save for the bathrooms. Martina has gas-powered radiators, whose recently installed boiler is currently fed from cylinders. It would be preferable to request a connection to the gas main in the future. Silvia on the other hand has a pair of air conditioning units, which circulate both hot and cold air.Connected to the City and the SeaAlthough Bagheria has a storied past, growing up primarily around a cluster of stunning eighteenth and nineteenth century villas that served as summer escapes for the gentry of Palermo, these days it is in large part a commuter town, and as such the transport connections are well above average for Sicily. Buses, trains and a motorway will all take you into the centre of Palermo in twenty minutes. The station is a walkable 15 minutes from the apartment. So too is the town centre, while the beaches of Aspra, Porticello, Mongerbino and the rest of the scenic Capo Zafferano peninsula are all just a short drive or cycle away.For a full description of the properties please visit our website Meer weten?
