Land in Collesano
Collesano, Palermo
Plot Giuseppe - Collesano Plot Giuseppe is a 12,296 m2 plot near Collesano, with centuries-old olive trees, open hill views and an asphalt road reaching the entrance gate. It offers a rural setting within reach of Sicily’s north coast, Collesano and Campofelice di Roccella. AN ESTABLISHED OLIVE GROVE The hillside land lies approximately 390–430 metres above sea level and includes olive, almond and other fruit trees. There is no direct sea view. An internal driveway would need to be created. A possible electricity connection requires agreement with the network operator; water supply is envisaged through a well, subject to investigation. BUILDING POTENTIAL Approximately 7,847 m2 is agricultural land and 4,449 m2 falls within C3 seasonal residential zoning. An initial scenario envisages a house of around 123 m2. This depends on municipal confirmation that the entire plot can be included in the agricultural calculation and that the proposed home meets the relevant requirements. The C3 portion may offer additional potential through an approved subdivision plan, with the qualifying area and arrangements still to be established. SUPPORT FROM PLANNING TO CONSTRUCTION We propose making the purchase offer conditional on obtaining permission for the agreed project, with deadlines and deposit arrangements clearly defined. Design and application costs would remain separate. Our team can coordinate local professionals and support the planning and construction process.

Apartment in Cefalu
Cefalu, Palermo
Casa Aldo - Cefalù Steps from Cefalù's UNESCO-listed cathedral, Casa Aldo is a characterful old town home with around 95m2 of space. This is divided between the furnished and immediately usable apartment upstairs and a storeroom underneath. At the Heart of Romantic Cefalù Cefalù has a magic that lingers long in the memory of anyone who visits. Cobbled Medieval lanes, a golden beach and an Arab-Norman cathedral beneath the great rock of La Rocca. Despite its fame, it has kept its authentic Sicilian character, and many families have lived in the same streets for generations. Casa Aldo is right in the middle of it all. The cathedral square is just a few steps away and the Mandralisca Museum is a few doors along. At the bottom of the road is the old town beach seen in the Oscar-winning film Cinema Paradiso. Cosy, Ready-to-use First-Floor Apartment A shared staircase leads to the apartment, where you enter a cosy kitchen with local printed tiles behind the sink. The bathroom has a box shower, and the living room opens beneath a lovely vaulted ceiling, with a wooden bookshelf set into a stone-framed recess. Upstairs, a mezzanine area furnished with a single bed leads to an upper level registered as attic space, currently furnished with a double bed. The windows mainly face quiet courtyards. Furnished and already in use, the apartment would also make an appealing holiday let. Atmospheric Stone-Arched Storeroom Directly below, a 40m2 storeroom with its own entrance is framed by ancient stone arches and currently furnished with a sitting area, kitchen, sleeping area and small bathroom. It remains registered for storage use. Limited openings and natural light may prevent residential conversion, so this should not be assumed. A possible internal staircase and associated technical paperwork are estimated at around €15,000, subject to feasibility and the relevant permissions; a connection would not automatically change the storeroom's permitted use. A full refurbishment of both units is estimated at around €65,000. The property's volume and internal layout have been reviewed with independent technical professionals and are consistent with the available documentation. Casa Aldo would suit a buyer seeking a romantic pied-à-terre in a prestigious location, with scope to enhance its historic features and comfort.

House in Gratteri
Gratteri, Palermo
Casa Vanessa - Gratteri Just outside the Madonie village of Gratteri, Casa Vanessa is a two-bedroom country house with its own olive grove. Its panoramic terrace looks out over green hills and mountain peaks. Two Bedrooms, Kitchen-Living Room and a 25m2 Outbuilding The main house has a living room with kitchen of about 20m2, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The roofs are finished, and the aluminium double-glazed windows have shutters and built-in mosquito screens. Inside, the walls, floors and some of the systems are still to be completed. The separate outbuilding is further along, with plastered walls, laid floors and its systems installed. The owners have planned a roof linking the two buildings, which would give you a sheltered outdoor space between them. Between Olive Terraces and the Madonie Peaks The terraced land below the house holds about thirty olive trees, which produced roughly 70kg of oil last year. Figs, prickly pears, pears, peaches, plums and cherries grow here too, and the land extends up the hillside beyond the current fence. A quiet, level lane leads into Gratteri, where shops, bars and a pharmacy are open all year. Cefalù and the beach at Gorgo Lungo are about half an hour away. Palermo airport is around 90 minutes away and the ski slopes of Piano Battaglia lie just to the south. Put the Finishing Touches in Your Own Style Finishing a house is a challenge, but it is also the most creative way to own one, and here the heavy lifting is already done. You choose the floors, tiles and colours, and the concrete terrace under a large walnut tree could be paved as an outdoor dining room for family or holiday guests. All the work together is estimated at around €60,000. That means you could buy and finish Casa Vanessa for under €200,000, giving you a mid-priced holiday home with estimated letting income of around €20,000 a year. It would also make an affordable permanent home in beautiful countryside. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE
House in Lascari
Lascari, Palermo
Casa Max - Lascari Casa Max is an unfinished two-storey stone country house near Lascari, offering around 94m2 of internal space, 1.7 hectares of land and open views across the Sicilian countryside towards the sea. An Unfinished Stone Country House The exterior already has the character of a traditional Sicilian country home, with exposed stone walls and a compact two-level structure. Inside, however, the property remains largely unfinished, giving the future owner considerable freedom over finishes, fittings and the overall style of the completed house. An existing project provides for a living room, kitchen with dining area, two bedrooms and a bathroom, together with outdoor space and a small upper terrace. The internal staircase, floors and basic divisions are already present, while the electrical and plumbing systems, along with the other services, still need to be completed. 1.7 Hectares with Olive Trees and Sea Views Around the house are approximately 1.7 hectares of agricultural land containing around twenty olive trees, along with almond, orange and lemon trees and other Mediterranean vegetation. The elevated rural setting gives broad views over the surrounding countryside, with the sea clearly visible towards the northern coast. The size of the land also creates scope for landscaped outdoor living areas and dedicated parking. Subject to the relevant permissions, further additions such as a veranda, photovoltaic system or swimming pool may also be possible. Country Living Close to Cefalù Despite its rural setting, Casa Max is only around five minutes by car from Lascari, with the nearest beach approximately twelve minutes away and Cefalù around 21 minutes. Provision exists for reconnection to the electricity grid, while a 10,000-litre cistern is already present. The property is not connected to municipal water or sewerage, so independent water and wastewater systems will need to form part of the completion project. For buyers looking to create a personalised Sicilian country home rather than inherit someone else’s renovation choices, Casa Max offers an unusually flexible starting point.
House in Caltavuturo
Caltavuturo, Palermo
Casa Gisella - Caltavuturo Casa Gisella is a compact three-level home in central Caltavuturo, offering two flexible bedrooms, two balconies, mountain views and a practical base for enjoying both village life and the Madonie landscape. Traditional Layout, Flexible Living The house is arranged over three floors, with a kitchen and dining room on the ground floor, a small WC beneath the stairs, and a traditional fireplace adding character to the main living space. The first floor contains a large room currently arranged as a sitting room but suitable as a second bedroom, with two doors opening onto a wrap-around balcony. A narrow ancillary room provides useful storage and could potentially be adapted as a laundry or utility area. The principal bedroom occupies most of the top floor, with air conditioning, a recently renovated bathroom and access via a small landing to another wrap-around balcony with the best views in the house. Mountain Views from the Heart of Town Casa Gisella sits right in the centre of Caltavuturo, with cafés, shops, a pharmacy, bakery and restaurants all within a few minutes’ walk. The Rocca di Sciara rises directly above the town, with the start of the walking trail around fifteen minutes away on foot. Terravecchia Castle is even closer, while the wider Madonie landscape is always close at hand. Campofelice di Roccella and the coast are around 39 minutes away by car, while Cefalù can be reached in just under an hour. Habitable Now, with Scope to Improve The house is currently habitable, with technical and cosmetic updating recommended rather than wholesale restoration. The electrical system should be renewed, the plumbing reviewed, and old staining from a resolved leak needs redecorating. The windows and façade can be retained for a simpler, lower-cost approach, or upgraded as part of a fuller refurbishment. The property does not currently have the Italian certificate confirming formal approval for occupation, but the building itself has been legally regularised through retrospective building approval.

The living room opens onto a long balcony overlooking rooftops and green space, with double exposure ensuring the living areas are never short of natural light.

There's even room for a comfortable little lounge with sofas and the stylish built-in bookshelves around the archway entrance. A Quiet Address with Excellent Connections Appartamento Melina is on via Santa Maria di Gesù, a calm residential street in Palermo’s Guadagna district, directly opposite a public park. The city centre is five minutes by car. Palermo Guadagna railway station is a fifteen-minute walk, with direct services into central Palermo in about ten minutes.

Very Well Maintained Communal Spaces The building is made up of four residential blocks around a communal garden. The lift was replaced in the past few months, the roof was fully waterproofed recently, and the communal entrance – marble floors, wood panelling – is in excellent condition. Two private parking spaces with an automatic gate are included. Appartmento Melina can be occupied immediately once furnished. Just five minutes from the centre of one of the Mediterranean’s most fascinating cities, and at an asking price you would never find in similar coastal locations, this is a real value proposition.

Villa in Campofelice di Roccella
Campofelice di Roccella, Palermo
Villa Giovanna - Campofelice In the midst of a productive lemon grove on a full hectare of land, Villa Giovanna is a two-bedroom country home with panoramic sea views in the hills above Campofelice di Roccella, on Sicily’s north coast. OUTDOOR LIVING AT ITS BEST The covered terrace is the heart of daily life here: a permanent tiled canopy over a terracotta floor, facing the sea and overlooking an unexpectedly lush Mediterranean lawn which really shines in the sun. A stone-built outdoor kitchen and an additional a pizza oven around the corner makes this a dream spot for long, sociable evenings in the open air. The paved parking area at the end of the private driveway offers its own panoramic views of the Gulf of Termini Imerese, and the estate’s 300 lemon trees, thirty olive trees and drip irrigation system create a lush and productive setting. A SOUND STRUCTURE READY TO BE SHAPED Inside, the 90m2 villa has an open-plan living room with a high sloping ceiling, a kitchen-diner with walk-in pantry, a study, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The structure is solid and the exterior was recently re-rendered, but the interior fittings are due for an update. This is a project home with serious potential for anyone who wants to shape a property to their own tastes, and the result could be a very comfortable rural retreat with all the character of its idyllic lemon grove setting. A WORKING ESTATE WITH RENTAL APPEAL The estate really sets this property apart. Whether you want to produce your own olive oil and organic lemons, or simply enjoy the privacy and beauty of a productive Mediterranean garden, the grounds deliver. The combination of sea views, rural seclusion and a working grove also gives Villa Giovanna real appeal as a holiday let for guests looking for something beyond the ordinary. BETWEEN CEFALÙ AND PALERMO Campofelice di Roccella is a year-round community with all the services you need, only two kilometres from the property.

House in Castelbuono
Castelbuono, Palermo
Casa Mandrazze - Castelbuono On the edge of one of the Madonie’s most vibrant towns, Case Mandrazze are a pair of independent country homes listed for joint sale. On a 6,000m2 countryside estate just outside the surprisingly lively Castelbuono, it offers flexibility, privacy and sea views. A STONE FARMHOUSE WITH SEA VIEWS The main house is a two-storey building in the traditional Madonie stone style, with an open-plan ground floor featuring a kitchen, living room with fireplace and bathroom. Upstairs, two bedrooms with sea views open off a generous landing that's topped off with a sunny balcony. The house is habitable now, though a full update of the fixtures and bathrooms would bring it to a modern standard. The front terrace offers panoramic views north over the olive groves and down to the Tyrrhenian coast, a feature that is uncommon at this altitude in the Madonie. A GUEST COTTAGE WITH POTENTIAL The separate single-storey cottage dates from the 1980s and offers a living room, two bedrooms and a mezzanine. It needs some foundation repair before it can be used, but otherwise is in good shape, with relatively modern fittings and only a little redecoration needed to make a very comfortable little annexe for visitors or to market as a holiday rental. This, too, is surrounded by a shady terrace with lovely green park views. An outdoor kitchen here would really put the cherry on the cake. COUNTRYSIDE LIVING,TOWN AT YOUR DOORSTEP Castelbuono is a walkable distance or short drive away, offering restaurants, shops, year-round cultural events and one of the strongest international communities in the Sicilian interior. The north coast beaches are about 35 minutes by car, and Palermo’s international airport is roughly 90 minutes away. This well-balanced location means that the homes are fully connected to all mains services , keeping the necessary renovation budget to a level that would still compete with many single homes. All of this makes the twin buildings and fruitful gardens of Case Mandrazze a compelling prospect for buyers who want space, seclusion and value.

Apartment in Casteldaccia
Casteldaccia, Palermo
Appartamento Gregorio - Casteldaccia Perched 65 metres above the Tyrrhenian Sea on a hilltop plot in Casteldaccia, Appartamento Gregorio is a two-bedroom apartment with views across the Gulf of Termini Imerese from both bedrooms and some lovely design touches that make it feel instantly homely. A QUIET GATED PLOT WITH DIRECT ACCESS FROM THE CARPORT The apartment forms part of a low-rise condominium, although it offers the privacy of an independent home. A private entrance leads straight in from a shaded front porch, screened from the road by trees and shrubs, and a carport is within a few steps of the front door. The property is part of a small block of flats with shared gardens and use of an automatic gate from the street. Other amenities include a huge water reserve from an communal reservoir. SPACIOUS INTERIORS WITH QUALITY FINISHES The home has two large bedrooms, each with parquet flooring and its own balcony, and a striking formal living room with a fine, expertly laid parquet floor. There is also a separate dining room large enough for eight, a built-in Sicilian kitchen with tiled work surfaces, a separate laundry area and a large family bathroom with a window. Decorative ceiling friezes, panels of coloured internal glass and a careful choice of tile work add character throughout, in a way that suggests an owner who has cared deeply about the small details. A SMART MOVE ON THE COAST EAST OF PALERMO Appartamento Gregorio sits at the top of a hillside overlooking the sea, with the centre of Casteldaccia a short walk or drive away. In the other direction, down the hill, some popular beach clubs and public coves are easily accessible, as is the historic Duca di Salaparuta winery. The local train station is around ten minutes’ walk and brings you into central Palermo in about 25 minutes. The international airport is less than an hour by car, and Cefalù under an hour up the coast in the other direction. A DURABLE FAMILY HOME OR A HIGH-POTENTIAL INVESTMENT The home is ready to occupy as it stands, with the vendor committing to refurbish the exterior balconies before completion. It has everything you need for a full time relocation to the Sicilian sun, including step-free access that makes it perfect as a retirement property. On the other hand, the spacious layout could support a division into two completely self-contained one-bedroom apartments of nearly 100m2 apiece, each with its own sea-view balcony and fully independent entrance. Whether you want a home to use yourself, a pair to resell or rent out or even one of each, this is a beauty and offers great value at the asking price.

Villa in Cefalu
Cefalu, Palermo
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.

Apartment in Santa Flavia
Santa Flavia, Palermo
Appartamento Michele - Porticello A practical and spacious three-bedroom home on the Sicilian coast, Appartamento Michele is found in the welcoming fishing village of Porticello, just twenty minutes from central Palermo. SUN, SPACE AND SEA AIR The second-floor apartment occupies the top residential level of a small three-unit building, with balconies running along three sides and a large roof terrace for the exclusive use of the buyer. Inside, the layout is generous: three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a storeroom, an eat-in kitchen and a living room with dual exposition that catches light from the south-west and south-east. Ceiling height is 3 metres throughout, and the warm patterned tile floors match the wooden trim for a cohesive, welcoming feel. A ROOF TERRACE TO MAKE YOUR OWN Upstairs, the open-air terrace is a highlight. Large enough to accommodate a pergola, outdoor kitchen and seating area, it’s the kind of versatile outdoor space that’s hard to come by at this price point. With a small adjustment to the front parapet, a partial sea view can be opened up – and the terrace can even be divided to serve two separate units, should you choose to split the apartment for rental income. PORTICELLO: CHARACTER AND CONVENIENCE The marina is 300 metres away, the beach 650 metres, and the lovely inlet at Sant’Elia just over a kilometre along the coast. Santa Flavia’s train station is a kilometre inland, with services to Palermo in twenty minutes. The area is rich in archaeology, natural beauty and fresh seafood, yet remains blissfully free of mass tourism. AFFORDABLE AND READY TO USE The apartment is in sound condition and will need no urgent work. However, some modernising would definitely bring the best out of it. We recommend redoing the electrical system, bathrooms and windows, but this is reflected in a very appealing asking price. Its generous footprint also makes it possible to divide into two separate units, if you're seeking rental income or a smaller home with a guest flat. With balconies on three sides, high ceilings, a roof terrace and a fishing village location minutes from Palermo, this is a highly recommendable mid-range purchase with plenty of scope to add value, both indoors and out.

Land in Gratteri
Gratteri, Palermo
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

COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS, WALKABLE NEIGHBOURHOOD Despite the quiet, edge-of-town location, the whole of the small town of Casteldaccia, with bakeries, cafés and restaurants, is within walking distance. The local train station puts you in central Palermo in twenty minutes, while Cefalù is around forty minutes by motorway. The nearest beach is only a couple of kilometres away, and the spectacular headland around Monte Catalfano to the north offers a wealth of coves and bays that are perfect to explore by land or sea. VALUE AND POTENTIAL This is the best of Sicily from all angles – convenient for the city, immersed in natural beauty and with the friendly welcome of a small town. Whether you make Casa Enza your new home or a foray into the island's burgeoning tourist market, it is a spacious, perfectly presented house that offers stellar value for money at this asking price.

House in Gratteri
Gratteri, Palermo
Casa Rosaria - Gratteri A substantial renovation project on one of Gratteri’s main streets, Casa Rosaria is a four-storey townhouse of approximately 220m2 with the rare advantage of a private garden in the heart of the village. 220m2 OF CHARACTER ACROSS FOUR FLOORS The traditionally built stone house is arranged over four levels, connected by a marble-clad staircase in excellent condition. Rooms range from a ground floor entrance with an original stone sink to a first floor chamber carved directly into the rock – a wonderfully atmospheric space. The upper floors offer a kitchen-living area with potential for an open-plan layout, and a top floor with well-preserved chequerboard cement tiles and panoramic views that stretch to the sea. A PRIVATE GARDEN IN THE VILLAGE CENTRE What really makes Casa Rosaria stand out in this part of the world is its rear garden, accessed from the top floor terrace. Private outdoor space attached to a house in Gratteri’s old town is exceptionally uncommon, and it opens up possibilities that most village properties cannot offer – from outdoor dining to a kitchen garden or a quiet retreat under open sky. SOLID BONES, READY FOR YOUR VISION Casa Rosaria needs moderate to thorough renovation. At least one timber floor structure requires rebuilding, the bathroom must be redone, and the roof, electrics and window frames all need attention. The facade, however, is in good order, and the reinforced concrete staircase is sound throughout. A minimum budget of around €40,000 will bring the house into comfortable use; although if you want to make it into a really stylish mix of historic charm and modern comfort you might need to find two or three times that. The Mountains of the Madonie, Half an Hour from Cefalù Gratteri sits around 700m above sea level in the Madonie Natural Park, surrounded by outstanding hiking and mountain landscapes. The ever-popular beach town of Cefalù is only a thirty minutes drive down a winding scenic road, and you can find supermarkets and larger shops along the way in Lascari. For international connections, Palermo’s international airport is ninety minutes to the west. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE
House in Bagheria
Bagheria, Palermo
Casa Salvatore - Bagheria A three apartment palazzo on four floors, with a glorious sunny top-floor living room and roof terrace, Casa Salvatore stands in the historic centre of Bagheria, a small Sicilian city just fifteen minutes by train from Palermo. THREE APARTMENTS AND A ROOFTOP TERRACE Each of the first three floors is a one bedroom apartment with a kitchen and bathroom, and all have their own entrances from a shared marble staircase. It would be perfectly straightforward to create a trio of separate apartments, and the top floor could either become a studio or a common leisure space – perhaps depending on whether you plan to renovate for resale or the rental market. Tall ceilings throughout lend a touch of history and an airy openness to the rooms, and balconies on Via Scoppa bring in natural light. The top floor is probably the biggest selling point, an open-plan space with floor-to-ceiling glazing on two sides. This leads out to a corner terrace with views over the rooftops and bell towers of the town. TEN MINUTES TO THE TRAIN,FIVE TO THE SEA Bagheria is a lively little city of around 40,00 residents, boasting a lively food scene, pedestrianised shopping streets and a rich cultural heritage centred around its famous baroque villas, including the celebrated Villa Palagonia. It's something of a satellite of Palermo, and the train station that's just ten minutes away on foot helps commuters and tourists alike reach the centre of Sicily's capital in less than a quarter of an hour. The charming seafront village of Aspra, with its fish restaurants and access to the coves of the Capo Zafferano peninsula, is five minutes away by car. When you need to travel internationally, Falcone-Borsellino airport is about 45 minutes away and you can also get there by train with a single change. A RENOVATION PROJECT PRICED TO LEAVE YOU AN AMBITIOUS BUDGET The property needs a comprehensive programme of work: new plumbing and wiring, heating installation, new window frames, bathroom refurbishments and facade repairs. The ground floor, which has been unoccupied longest, requires the most attention, while the second floor is in notably better condition. The low asking price leaves significant room to renovate in a way that will stand the test of time, and the result could be a substantial and characterful home – or three or four - in one of northern Sicily’s best-connected towns.

House in Gratteri
Gratteri, Palermo
Casa Pinuccia - Gratteri With 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 CORE There 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 PARK The 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
