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.

Tenute La Rocca - Collesano Three kilometres south of Collesano in the Madonie Natural Park, Tenuta La Rocca is a huge country estate with a guest house, agricultural buildings, a house to restore and a fully functional restaurant. A WORKING RESTAURANT WITH OVERNIGHT ACCOMMODATION In the past, Tenuta La Rocca was a popular out-of-town restaurant, with a pair of dining rooms capable of holding over eighty guests in a single service. It did good trade with locals and tourists alike, especially on festivals and feast days when it would provide set menus to large family groups, and had review scores over 4.5/5 on both Google and Tripadvisor. Everything you need to reopen the business is included in the asking price, including two fully equipped dining rooms, recently renovated bathrooms and a 40m2 working kitchen. Built around a spacious courtyard, the restaurant building also features seven guest bedrooms, which give it enormous potential if well marketed as a venue for weddings or other events. Some investment will be needed on the renovation of this accommodation to make it the irresistible prospect it deserves to be, but if you're able to do this you could have a sensational and versatile venue on your hands. ELEVEN HECTARES OF PEACEFUL LAND The estate is a vast plot on the north-western side of one of the intermediate hills in the beautiful Madonie Natural Park. This gives you great views of the mountains above you and the sea below, visible on the horizon beyond the town of Campofelice di Roccella. The estate is not currently farmed, but a pair of enormous barns give you more than enough room to keep livestock (one of these was previously a stable building) and store crops (the other was a hayloft). With over 27 acres of land at your disposal you won't be short of space, whatever type of activity you have in mind. A RUINED COTTAGE TO RENOVATE Towards the higher end of the estate is the ruin of a 100m2 house, which would be a perfect renovation project. It would eventually give you and your family the chance to live on-site with the comfort of being several hundred metres away from the restaurant and accommodation. A lot of work will be needed, but in the end your investment would be rewarded with a home built completely to your own specifications and some lovely sea views.

Villa Arcobaleno - San Lorenzo Small but perfectly formed, Villa Arcobaleno is a one-bedroom holiday home in a spacious estate near Noto on Sicily's southern tip. BEAUTIFULLY RENOVATED, INSIDE AND OUT Renovation work over the past eight years has turned a characterful but run-down farm cottage into a really lovely modern holiday home. The property has been remade from terracotta tiled floor to insulated roof. There is fine-grained plaster on the wall, and lovely exposed timbers on the ceiling. The terrace has had a fixed veranda added, and the garden has also now got a stone barbecue oven that will keep you well fed for years to come. The natural stone driveway is another lovely touch. Indoors, the finishings are built to last, especially in the kitchen, where the cupboards have been installed in brick and tile, the traditional Sicilian fashion. There's air conditioning for the summer and an efficient pellet-burning stove for the short winters. Even better, all of the furniture will be included in the sale. Just pack your suitcases! Superb Location Steeped in Natural Beauty and History The detached home is found at the end of a long country lane that extends into the outer edges of a nature reserve called the Oasi Faunistica di Vendicari. This runs along 10km of south Sicily's Ionian coast, taking in some wonderful sandy beaches and fertile flatlands. If you're a history buff, you'll be charmed by the nearby fishing villages, and dazzled by the Baroque towns of the Val di Noto, right on your doorstep. The collection of architectural treasures has been afforded World Heritage Site status by UNESCO in 2002. VERY STRONG POTENTIAL FOR RENTAL INCOME It's wonderful to know that any time you can fly down to the sunshine, your very own holiday property will be waiting for you. But when life keeps you elsewhere, you can be sure that many others will be queuing up to take advantage of this beautiful property. The current owners have had it listed on Booking.com, AirBnb and various other sites for two years now, and the interest has been through the roof. The villa hit a 9.6 rating on Booking, and several of the reservations for 2024 were returning clients from 2023. The friendly couple are very willing to share their materials and insights into the market. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE
