Casa Maurizio - Porticello An 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 terrace the 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 challenge the 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 city wandering 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.

Appartamento Massimiliano - Aspra A stone’s throw from the sea in a charming little fishing village on the Gulf of Palermo, Appartamento Massimiliano is a two-bedroom apartment with generous living spaces and a really winning balcony that wraps around the south and west sides of the home. A wraparound balcony over the rooftops. The first floor apartment’s standout feature is this balcony, accessible from the master bedroom, living room and kitchen-diner. Even without a lofty top floor vantage point, your view will take in green hillsides, colourful neighbouring buildings and a wide open sky, with a hint of sea breeze drifting up from the waterfront. The sea is just 350 metres away. Inside, the rooms are airy and well-proportioned, with marble tile floors, white walls and wooden doors. The kitchen is large enough to seat eight and benefits from dual aspect windows. A second bedroom, bathroom, storeroom and utility room complete the layout. The property is sold unfurnished and in good condition, ready to be personalised. A fishing village 20 minutes from the city aspra is not a seasonal resort. It is a working community with bakeries, fish markets and restaurants open twelve months a year. The beaches and seafront promenade are minutes away on foot, and the coastline in both directions is full of coves and inlets to explore. Nearby Sant’Elia and the fishing harbour of Porticello add further character to the peninsula. Year-round demand for both residential and tourist rentals means the apartment offers genuine income potential alongside personal use, making it a practical choice for buyers who want their property to work for them. Bagheria train station is 2km away, connecting you to central Palermo in twenty minutes. The international airport is a 45 minute drive. In good condition and ready for immediate use a fresh coat of paint is all it takes to make this apartment your own. The bathroom is in good working order and the common areas of the building have been looked after with care. It is sold unfurnished, giving you the perfect opportunity to redecorate and put your personal stamp on the home before moving in, but all of the connections and infrastructure are sound, and you will have no trouble creating a homely atmosphere in this warm, sunny and well-located apartment.

Villa Iolanda - Cefalù Set in the green, wooded hills behind one of Sicily’s best-loved beach towns, Villa Iolanda is a detached two-storey shell overlooking Cefalù. The buyer will need to complete the unfinished property, but will have almost unlimited freedom to personalise it as they like. A complete structure to finish exactly as you like the shell of the villa has been built in reinforced concrete with insulating clay block walls and a structurally watertight roof. At around 93 square metres over two floors, it will offer a pair of bedrooms and at least one bathroom on the ground floor, and what will eventually be an open living space on the upper level, where the views are at their best. A wraparound terrace will take full advantage of this, giving views of the Rocca di Cefalù, the cathedral and some of the Tyrrhenian Sea beyond. The buyer will have complete freedom to choose all finishes and materials, with the walls, floors and windows still to be installed, besides the plumbing, electrics and drainage. This is a rare opportunity to have complete creative freedom over a brand new home without having to involve yourself in the bureaucracy-heavy planning stage. The garden wraps around the front of the ground floor, with room for a lawn, outdoor kitchen and dining, and even a small pool if you would like. Ten minutes from the beach the property sits at around 200 metres above sea level, roughly 1.3 kilometres from the coast as the crow flies, in a quiet residential pocket of well-spaced detached houses surrounded by woodland and lush hillsides. The access road is in good condition, and supermarkets are within a ten-minute drive. The old town of Cefalù, with its unesco-listed cathedral and famous sandy beach, is about the same distance. Cefalù’s railway station offers direct services to Palermo in under an hour, and the island’s main international airport is around 80 minutes away by car. A cefalu' address at a rare price even allowing for the investment required to complete Villa Iolanda, detached homes within the municipality of Cefalù rarely come on the market at this price point. We estimate between €100,000 and €140,000 above the purchase price to be a realistic budget for the rest of the work, so you are trading time for a significant discount on the typical cost of a new home in perfect condition here. All necessary documentation is in order and the sellers will hand over with renewed permits, so work will be able to begin without any delay.

Plot Gorgone - Gratteri With approved plans for a rural tourism resort and sweeping Madonie views, Plot Gorgone is a 2.5-hectare development opportunity in the hills above Gratteri, twenty-five minutes from Cefalù. Six luxury camping pitches and a natural pool the approved plans set out six independent luxury camping pitches along a marked-out internal road, each positioned for privacy and landscape integration. At the lower end of the estate, the plans include a main house for reception and dining, a guest building with three en-suite bedrooms and a bio-piscina – a natural swimming pool in keeping with the ecological ethos of the project. All key authorisations are already in place: the geological survey, the Madonie Park environmental clearance and the municipal building permit. SOUTH-facing and close to the coast the hillside slopes towards the south-west, catching the sun from midday through to sunset. About 350 metres above sea level it's a quiet and secluded spot dotted with lush Mediterranean vegetation including olive trees and other fruit. The nearest village is Gratteri, a ten-minute drive away, while the nearest beaches can be reached in twenty minutes and the tourist magnet of Cefalù in twenty-five. A growing market with little competition the Madonie currently has very few luxury camping – or ‘glamping’ – facilities, and the Cefalù area still relies on traditional campsites. A well-designed resort here would occupy an open niche in a segment that is attracting growing interest from international travellers. The total investment, including all construction, is estimated at between €800,000 and €1,000,000, with projected net annual profits of €60,000 to €80,000 under direct management. Purchase a fully operational commercial entity the sale is structured as a company transfer – Ecoturismo Valle di Gratteri SRL – reducing transaction costs by an estimated €8,000. The buyer inherits a legal entity ready to operate, along with the approved project. The only remaining step before construction can begin is to complete the structural engineering plans. At its asking price, Plot Gorgone offers strong value as development land with real income potential. For a full description of the property please visit our website Meer weten?
