Description
Casa San Giuseppe - San Marco D'Alunzio With unbeatable views of a huge stretch of Sicily's north coast, Casa San Giuseppe is a stunning hilltop property in the charming village of San Marco d'Alunzio. The friendly little community is found in the lowest foothills of the Nebrodi mountains, Sicily's largest natural park. Around 500m above sea level but just three and a half kilometres as the crow flies from the nearest beach, the terraced property will make a fabulous holiday home in an underappreciated part of Sicily. Cobbled Streets and Centuries of History The building stands close to the edge of San Marco d'Alunzio, reached by cobbled streets that wind between historic homes and the remains of a castle that was built close to a thousand years ago. There are actually two separate units included in this affordable asking price. Both are sold fully furnished, just as seen in our photos and video tour. A Bird's Eye View of the Sea The first is a three-story home with three bedrooms, a kitchen-cum living room, three bathrooms, each with a shower. The bedrooms are furnished with comfortable double beds and wardrobes. Two have sea-view balconies. The floors are in Sicilian terracotta tile and the walls smooth plaster. This large open roof terrace is undoubtedly the highlight. It measures over 20m2, and gives you a totally unobstructed view down the hillside to the green fields, small towns and beaches below. The Tyrrhenian Sea stretches like a carpet right to the horizon, and the huge blue expanse of sky above it all makes this an irresistible spot to spend lazy afternoons or to dine al fresco. Fully Self-contained Guest Apartment Downstairs, the second apartment is hidden from view underground if you approach the house from the front, but street level to the little piazza behind it. This is a two-room living space which is totally independent of the main house It has a living room with a kitchenette, and a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. There is not a huge amount of space on offer, but as a base for visitors or listed on holiday accommodation sites as a minor revenue stream, you'll find it a lovely addition to your purchase. It even has a sea view from the bedroom window. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Italy will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £4,977 more.
