Terreno con Rustico - SelinunteWithin a kilometre of an iconic archaeological site and a remarkably beautiful beach, Terreno con Rustico in the town of Selinunte is a great piece of land waiting for the right buyer to put up a lovely family villa.7,000M2 of prestige building landThis plot is a long rectangle, a strip measuring 25m by 280m. Connected at one end to the main road that runs into Selinunte, it is flat, arable land with some fine olive trees that must be at least 80 years old, and a copse of about forty pines at the far end. The neighbouring land has not been extensively developed either, meaning that you won't have a feeling of being squeezed in, wherever you decide to put your new villa.There is an existing house about 250m from the road, but this is in very poor condition with questionable foundations, and will almost certainly need to be demolished. The size of the land means that you can build 240m2 of home, more than enough for a three of four-bedroom villa on two floors.A seafront nature reserve and ancient temples on your doorstepThe town of Selinunte is widely renowned for its archaeological park, the largest of its kind in Europe. The ruins of a Greek town have been painstakingly excavated over the years, with some of the most beautiful temples restored to a remarkable condition. If you build a two-storey home these ancient treasures will actually be on display from your upstairs windows and balconies. The park begins just 600m from the entrance to this plot.A less well-known but equally dazzling attraction is the Riserva Naturale Orientata Foce Belice. This protected area covers the beaches, dunes and tall grasses along the coast from Selinunte as you head east towards Sciacca and Agrigento. As well as providing a haven for all manner of wildlife it's a truly unbeatable spot to visit for a day at the beach. The four kilometre strip of sand offers more than enough space for all visitors and the remote location gives you a feeling of total escape from the cares of the world. This is just a kilometre away.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Case Anna - Rodi MiliciIn the idyllic hilltop town of Rodì Milica, 45 minutes from Messina and 4km from the north coast, Case Anna is a pair of private apartments in a residence of five homes. Both have shared access to the little community's private swimming pool.Both have been well maintained. They are sold fully furnished and ready for immediate use, just as seen in our virtual tour and photography.TWO-bedroom apartment with antique charmThe first apartment is full of character, evident in its dark wooden ceilings and the exposed stonework on its walls. You'll find a living room with a kitchen on the ground floor, and upstairs are a pair of bedrooms and a really nice bathroom with a shower.The main entrance is from the courtyard at the centre of the residence, but the guest bedroom has a back door onto the alleyway which runs behind the complex. The master bedroom has a fabulous view of the roofs of Rodì and the green hills that encircle it.ONE-bedroom home with roof terraceThe second apartment measures 68m2, with a single open-plan living space upstairs and a bedroom with an en-suite downstairs, It has a pair of terraces – one on the roof which is built over the bathroom, and another in wood which is lower town, overlooking the swimming pool. The former gives you a little bit of sea view in the distance.The living room is a bright and cheery space, with a sturdily built and colourful kitchen including an oven, fridge freezer and washing machine. The bedroom is partially underground, cosy and warm even in the short Sicilian winters.Peace and quiet in this friendly rural settingEverything you'd imagine a small Sicilian village to be, Rodì Milici is rustic and ravishing. There are enough visitors in the season that some of the apartments in the residence do a good trade as rental homes, but nothing here feels like it's for the benefit of visitors. You can live on local produce and sleep and wake to the rhythms of nature.The lovely Tonnarella beach, barely ten minutes away, gives you clear waters and stunning sunsets, and the green slopes of Mount Etna and the Nebrodi Natural Park are both just around the corner.

Villa Due Mari - MondelloAn absolute jewel of a family home, the stately Villa Due Mari is just 300m from the beach of trendy Mondello. An incredibly rare opportunity to buy into the great Sicilian summer experience, it dazzles with immaculate renovation work and perfect presentation.Five bedrooms and three bathroomsThe villa is spread across three floors, with a living room-diner and kitchen on the ground floor, four bedrooms on the first and a self-contained flat on the second. In total there is a huge 240m2 of indoor space, including a wide marble staircase that wraps around an fully functioning elevator. Two kitchens, one in the flat under the eaves, give you the flexibility to entertain in different configurations or perhaps to retain a live-in housekeeper or property guardian. Everything is in pristine condition, and the home is sold fully furnished, inclusive of all contents shown in our virtual tour and photography.A green lawn and an irresistible swimming poolThe 400m gardens are fully enclosed and offer numerous possibilities for family time or entertaining. On the street-side of the west-facing property you will find a small front garden and off-street parking for one car. A flight of steps leads up to a long, open front porch.To the rear is a beautiful deep portico offering 55m2 of covered outdoor space. If we were buying the villa we'd consider enclosing it with glass to hold a winter garden and give us extra living space all year round, but it's stylishly designed and refreshingly cool just as it is. Beyond this, the well-kept lawn leads to the 7x3m swimming pool, an invaluable addition to a home in such a popular location.Beauty and Style, at Home and Around the Corner Mondello is officially a district of Palermo, but has its own distinct identity and is separated from the main city by the towering rocky outcrop of Monte Pellegrino. It is an exquisite natural bay, with a deep white sandy beach and picture-postcard turquoise sea. The gentle entry to the water and shelter offered by the bay makes it an unbeatable spot to bring young children or less confident swimmers. It has been the go-to summer escape for citizens of Palermo since the town's elite started to build villas here at the turn of the twentieth century.The immediately recognisable Liberty architecture, an offshoot of the Art Nouveau movement, was once the prevalent style throughout Palermo, but widespread rebuilding work in the 1960s saw much of it sadly lost. Villa Due Mari is a beautiful example of the style - a time capsule and a piece of the region's cultural heritage. Even better, it stands on the famous via Margherita di Savoia, a central avenue which is noted for its collection of well-preserved Liberty homes.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Casa Maurizio - PorticelloAn advanced renovation project for an experienced or adventurous developer, Casa Maurizio needs a lot of care and attention. In the long run though, we think it offers great value as a two-bedroom family home or a three-apartment guesthouse.Three storey townhouse with a roof terraceThe building has a footprint of about 35m2, and is built on three floors plus a little loft space and what will become the roof terrace. Each level has a pair of rooms, with the front ones facing west and overlooking the street. At present the upper windows have been closed up and the balconies fallen completely through, but by the time you have three new French windows in place the home will be full of natural light, especially in the afternoons. The ceilings are three metres or higher, and the staircases are one above each other on the south side of the property.Planning permission has already been given for the terrace, and this will transfer with the ownership. The only issue to be aware of is that the current certificate will expire in March 2026, meaning that if you're not able to get to work in a hurry you'll need to spend a little more on renewing it.A real renovation challengeThe entire property will need to be redone, with the only exception being the walls, foundations, ground floor and first staircase. The internal floors and ceilings will have to be rebuilt, as will the roof. As we mentioned before, the balconies are missing and all of the electrical and plumbing fittings will need to be added from scratch. Obviously plastering and decoration will be the final stage, along with fitting kitchens and bathrooms.The great advantage of a project that needs this much work is, of course, that you can really shape it to your own needs. If you want a top floor kitchen opening directly onto the roof terrace to make al-fresco dining a cinch, that's absolutely possible. On the other hand, maybe you see the investment potential of three independent apartments, each with a bathroom at the rear and its own self-catering facilities.A friendly, traditional village that's deceptively close to the cityWandering the quiet streets or enjoying an aperitivo in front of the tranquil marina of Porticello, you would have no clue that you were only twenty minutes from Italy's fifth-largest city. The peninsula of Capo Zafferano screens Palermo from view, and instead you have the lovely landscape of green hills rising up from the Gulf of Termini Imerese. However, you can get into Sicily's capital city in twenty minutes by car, and the same time if you take a train from the nearby Santa Flavia station. This makes Casa Maurizio perfect for someone moving to Palermo for work but dreaming of a quiet home life outside the city, or a regular visitor who needs to switch off from the world just 45 minutes from a major international airport.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Casa Maria - PorticelloOn the outskirts of the picturesque fishing town of Porticello, ten kilometres east of Palermo, Casa Maria is a family home on the lower floor of a two-property villa. It's star appeal comes from the 200m2 roof terrace, of which it has exclusive use.135M2 of beautifully presented indoor spaceCasa Maria is divided into a 30m2 reception room, two bedrooms, a spacious kitchen-diner, a more formal dining room and two bathrooms. One of these is for family use, the other is en-suite to the master bathroom, and both have showers. The kitchen is a lovely big room, with all the floor space necessary to fit a dining table and chairs, and a walk-in larder. The bedrooms are also very comfortably sized, 16m2 and 19m2 respectivelyThe apartment is in great condition, good as new with no investment needed. Decoration is simple but uniform, with marble floors and wooden doors and trim throughout. The matching fixtures in the primary kitchen and bathrooms are included in the asking price. With would think about using the dining room as a third bedroom, or perhaps a comfortable lounge with a sofa bed to give you extra flexibility.Huge open roof terrace with a partial sea viewThe main attraction is on the roof, accessed by a communal staircase but not shared with anyone else. Up here you'll find all the sunshine and fresh air you could ever need, and a wooden pergola offers shade over what is currently an outdoor kitchen. The units won't remain in place, but the wooden structure is fully certified and built to last. Connections for water, gas, electricity, drainage and even a dishwasher mean that you could very easily enclose this a bit more and give yourself a beautiful south-facing family room with cooking facilities and even a bathroom.The view from the south-eastern corner is particularly good, with the waters of the Gulf of Castellammare visible 500m away in the middle distance.Wonderful location for beach, countryside and cityIf you like the idea of living in small town Sicily but don't want to give up on all the opportunities and infrastructure that a big city has to offer, Porticello is a marvellous spot. The state road that runs close by the property will take you into the outskirts of Palermo in twenty minutes, and you'll find a huge shopping centre, medical facilities and all kinds of larger stores. If you're heading into the centre you can save yourself the stress of hunting for a parking space by taking the train from Santa Flavia station, only five minutes from your front door on foot. This can also take you to the eastern Sicilian city of Messina, the stunning beach of Cefalù or the airport on the other side of Palermo. On days when you want to take it easy, the nearest beach is only ten minutes away.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Appartamento Giusi - Termini ImereseIn the friendly market town of Termini Imerese, just half an hour from Cefalù and Palermo, Appartamento Giusi is a cosy little studio on the second floor of a corner terrace townhouse with a lovely sea-view balcony. A complete renovation and full furnishingThe apartment is being fully renovated, and will be delivered with all of the work finished. You can expect a floor in Portuguese marble and windows in original wood with double glazing. The fitted kitchen will include an oven, induction hob and fridge freezer decorated with a backsplash in local majolica tiling. Everything is well lit thanks to the French windows that lead you out onto that lovely sea-view balcony.The bedroom area will have a 140cm bed and a high quality mattress to guarantee you a comfortable night's sleep. The bathroom will include a box shower as well as a washing machine, plus the usual suite of ceramics. A small washroom will link this to the main body of the apartment, and from here you will also be able to access a storeroom at the far end of the building, under a flight of stairs.Offered for sale subject to pre-contractThe vendor is seeking a buyer who is prepared to make a deposit in order to finish the renovation work. The great advantage of this is that while you will still receive an apartment that is in pristine condition, you will avoid all of the hard work and frustrations that can come with renovating your own property. This is especially advantageous if you're buying in Sicily for the first time - we love our island but the pace at which things get done can take a bit of getting used to! So we see the pre-sale agreement as a really big point in favour of Appartamento Giusi.A practical location moments from the seaTermini is a very traditional Sicilian town and although it has an abundance of history, it is in no way spoilt by tourism. The nearby ruins of the ancient spa town of Imera are a short drive away, and the castle and medieval village of Caccamo can be reached in 20 minutes. Beach lovers will be amazed by how easy it is to reach Cefalù by road or rail, with the Termini Imerese station only ten minutes walk from Appartamento Giusi. This can also bring you right into the heart of Sicily's intoxicating cultural and commercial capital, Palermo. With the sun-drenched sands of the Tyrrhenian coast on one side of you and the green hills of the Madonie Natural Park on the other, this is a stellar spot to give yourself a base in Sicily at such a tempting price.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Villa Tiziana - CasteldacciaAn oasis of calm fifteen miles outside Palermo, Villa Tiziana is an elegant six-bedroom home with sea views and a shady garden.A phenomenal location, almost at the water's edgeOne kilometre east of Casteldaccia in the province of Palermo, between the state road and motorway that follow Sicily's north coast and the shore of the Tyrrhenian Sea, a little stretch of residential development follows the sandy beaches. This is a quiet neighbourhood characterised by large villas organised along private cul-de-sacs, and midway along one of these we find Villa Tiziana.The street is gated, with the maintenance costs of the private road shared by a small number of residents. In return they enjoy private access to a lovely little sandy bay, which is otherwise reachable only by sea. From the northern corner of the semi-detached property to the water's edge is not even 100m as the crow flies – you will be able to hear and smell the salt water from every outdoor space of your huge Sicilian beach house.A huge, versatile villa sleeping a dozen in comfortThe three storeys of this semi-detached villa are efficiently divided, with a minimum of passageways and hallways and an emphasis on community. Everything indoors begins from the 45m2 living room-cum-diner; a focal point for family life that connects to the gardens, the kitchen, a bathroom and three bedrooms.Upstairs a sunny landing leads you to three more double bedrooms, each of which opens directly onto the deep open terrace. From here you can take an external staircase up to the flat roof, from where you can enjoy a fantastic 360 degree panorama that takes in lush green hills, pristine white homes and sparkling turquoise sea, all under the vast blue canopy of the Sicilian sky.Underground, a basement offers storage space across the full size of the building; over 60m2 which could in the future become a home gym, family room or even a studio apartment.Furnished and habitable: no further investiment neededThe vendors have only made Villa Tiziana their summer home, meaning that despite being nearly half a century old it has aged very well. A pair of the bedrooms downstairs are recent additions, and one of the upper ones has been renovated with a new floor and a lovely feature wall. Any renovation work would be purely a question of personal taste, priorities or aesthetics. The windows are single-glazed but beautifully made in solid wood. The bathrooms are original from the 1980s, but still work with no issue. The outdoor kitchen could be refreshed but the stone ovens are there forever. The basement would need work to be used as a living space, but does the job of a large storeroom perfectly.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Casa dei Nonni - Galati MamertinoWith stunning views and an enticing price tag, Casa dei Nonni is a slice of the most traditional Sicily in a beautiful natural park.Three bedrooms and a covered roof terraceThe property is built on four floors, with the lowest a semi-basement accessible from an adjacent street. The main body of the home is on the ground, first and second floors, with one bedroom on each. Two of these are cosy doubles with direct sea views through north-facing windows. The master, on the first floor, is twice the size and in addition to the same window as the others has a balcony overlooking the street outside.The ground-floor kitchen is brightly lit from a large street-facing window, and kitted out with a blue suite of oven, gas hobs, cupboards, double sink and fridge-freezer that is only ten years old.

On the top floor, the terrace measures 18m2 and gives you a great panorama over much of the village and the hills that rise around it on three sides. It is afforded shade by a fixed canopy and would make a lovely family space for relaxing afternoons or outdoor meals.Sicily's largest unspoilt wildernessThe Natural Park of the Nebrodi Mountains is the largest expanse of protected land in the whole of Sicily, and stretches from the beaches and marinas of the Tyrrhenian coast to the foothills of Mount Etna in the south. Along the way it unfolds as a thrilling landscape of mountains and lakes, forests and rivers which provide a home to innumerable species of flora and fauna.Galati Mamertino, where Casa dei Nonni stands, is a little community of around two thousand residents at an altitude of 800m above sea level. It's one of the last stops you come to before the centre of the natural park, which is completely free from towns and villages, spreads out over a vast area of 80,000km2.A welcoming community with close family tiesSince it was built in the 1970s, Casa dei Nonni has remained in the same family, and you will find that this is typical of much of the real estate in these traditional inner-Sicilian villages. Galati Mamertino is a warm and friendly place with a chance to really get under the skin of authentic Sicilian life.It does have all the modern conveniences you need, however, with supermarkets and smaller shops, a pharmacy and post office, and a smattering of bars and restaurants all within walking distance of the property. You will also appreciate the fibre optic internet cabling and the efficient public services.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Casa Marinella - MistrettaA fabulous value-for-money proposition for a buyer with a little time to invest and the appetite for a renovation, Casa Marinella is a four-bedroom villa with an unbeatable view.Miles of Stunning Hillside Laid Out in Front of YouOn the western edges of the Nebrodi Natural Park, less than four kilometres from the hilltop town of Mistretta, Casa Marinella stands on the western bank of a dramatic valley, which plunges 400m downhill over just a couple of kilometres, directly to the rear of the house. With the mountains opposite rising up to peaks over a thousand metres above sea level, and the waters of the Mediterranean visible on the horizon away to your left, it's a magical panorama almost completely undisturbed by human activity.The two-storey villa has been built to take full advantage of this, at the top of a 4,000m2 plot filled with over a hundred olive and fruit trees, but offering an uninterrupted view over their green canopy from the ground floor terrace and the balcony upstairs. The lower level has nearly 50m2 of mostly covered patio, including an outdoor kitchen with traditional stone fireplaces and grill. This is a property which will transport you to a simpler way of life, in contact with nature and the food chain.220M2 of living space on two floorsOf course, there is also a conventional kitchen indoors with an antique bread oven, none the less spacious and with room for a family dining table. Joining it on the ground floor are a living room whose window overlooks the valley, and a bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Each of these last two spaces have patio doors straight out onto the terrace. On the first floor you'll find four more rooms and a second bathroom, although the fixtures for this are yet to be installed. Two of the rooms have valley views (even taking in the sea seven kilometres to the north, on a clear day), and the home is flanked by the balcony on two sides. To the rear there is another terrace, a large flat space which takes full advantage of the gradient of the land.A renovation project with a fabulous payoffThere is a lot of work to be done before Casa Marinella can be said to be truly complete – the upper floor in particular is very much a work in progress. The walls need to be plastered and even, in some points, raised to the level of the roof. The floor is still in cement, and all of the decoration will need to be done from scratch. Of course, the advantage of this is that you can set the place up to look exactly as you would like.The ground floor could be used straight away, and indeed you could live there while working upstairs. At some point it, too, will need a fair amount of work however, with the wiring, windows and bathroom all in particular need of attention. Casa Marinella is definitely a project house – but for the sum of the purchase price and an investment around €100,000 you could own a really stunning big home fifteen minutes from the sea in one of Sicily's most underrated regions.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?

Casa Pinuccia - GratteriWith sea views and timeless charm, Casa Pinuccia would be perfect for a buyer who wants the thrill of restoring an old home in Sicily.THREE-storey home with bedroom,living room and kitchen Casa Pinuccia's layout is simple, with a 15m2 living room on the ground floor, a bedroom of the same size on the first floor and a kitchen and dining room on the second. Tucked away under the first staircase is a ground floor bathroom with a miniature tub and shower attachment. The living room opens straight onto the street through double doors which also let plenty of light into the cosy space.The first floor bedroom has the bonus of a sea-view balcony, and the dining room upstairs has the same. The room is only a little smaller than those below, despite the presence of the kitchen. We would actually love to see this floor opened up and turned into a single kitchen-diner. Doing this you could even put in a sofa and a couple of bookcases and allow yourselves to use the ground floor as a second bedroom. It would do justice to the sensational view from the balcony.A renovation challenge with a characterful coreThere is no getting away from the fact that a lot of work is going to be needed, not least on the wooden ceilings which have suffered from water damage. Beyond this Casa Pinuccia will need new windows, electrical wiring and plumbing to bring it up to modern safety codes. Additionally the fascia needs to be refreshed, and the elderly air conditioners replaced – we would suggest with two-way heat pumps.On the plus side of the ledger, the staircase was redone in concrete in the 1980s, finished with some lovely Sicilian marble and remains in great condition. The bathroom is from a similar era but the simple decoration has aged well and everything still works efficiently. The roof is also holiding up well. You'll love the decorative floor tiles throughout the home, and the fixed wood oven built right into the kitchen wall is a must-keep.Amazing hilltop location in sicily's favourite natural parkThe position of Casa Pinuccia is a huge selling point. Everything that surrounds Gratteri is beautiful green hillside, which stretches up to the towering peaks of the upper Madonie and down to the pristine Tyrrhenian Sea below. Although you could enjoy a different route around the fields, woodland and mountainsides of the region every day for a year, you'll also adore the fact that the nearest sandy beach is just 20 minutes away by car. The spectacular seafront of Norman Cefalu is only five minutes beyond that. And Palermo reachable in not much over an hour.For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?
