Houses/Villas for sale in Sicily, Italy

Casa Carbonara - Cefalù A large property on a beautiful 11,400m2 estate, Casa Carbonara offers a fabulous sea-view panorama from its perch above the seaside gem of Cefalù. SLEEPS EIGHT, WITH PLENTY OF SPACE TO SHARE Inside, the two-storey villa comprises four bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large living room and a spacious family kitchen. With minimal space lost to hallways it makes the most of its 195m2 of interior, although a reconfiguration would make the compact bathrooms more comfortable. There is renovation work to be done on the interiors, but the views from the trio of sea-view bedrooms up the smartly marbled flight of stairs speak to a promise well worth the unlocking. The house is well presented, with a recently installed water filtration system providing clean tap water from the estate’s own wells. OLIVE GROVES, FRUIT TREES AND DARK SKIES The three-acre triangular plot is planted with mature, fruit-bearing trees in a range of Mediterranean varieties. A new perimeter fence encloses almost the whole land, and a gravel access road serves the property. The gardens and terrace surrounding the house, complete with pizza oven, will host a wonderful array of sunny afternoons and starlit dinners. Just 3km inland and 600m above sea level, Casa Carbonara is in the foothills of the Madonie National Park, with the famous beach town of Cefalù a short drive below. The nearby village of Isnello is home to an international astronomical observatory that takes advantage of some of the darkest skies in southern Europe. A SOUND INVESTMENT IN ONE OF SICILY'S STRONGEST MARKETS A renovation budget of around €100,000 would cover new windows, updated bathrooms, a heating and cooling system, new electrics and photovoltaic power. More ambitious work, including opening up the ground floor and adding a swimming pool, would take the budget higher but the result would be a property of real distinction in one of the island’s most resilient tourist markets. The total investment, including purchase and renovation, would still represent strong value for a four-bedroom sea-view villa with three acres of land in the Cefalù municipality.

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

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.

Villa Caterina - Cefalù A three or four bedroom villa to renovate in one of Sicily's most sought-after locations, Villa Caterina is a 220m2 detached house on 1,200m2 of land. In the hills of the municipality of Cefalù, around ten minutes from the famous beach town itself, it offers a beautiful view of the Gulf of Termini Imerese, facing west towards the region's spectacular sunsets. SUNSET OVER THE WATER Positioned 300m above sea level in a sparsely populated district known as Campella or Contrada Monte, the villa is set up to take full advantage of that expansive view of the Conca d'Oro, the great coastal arc that sweeps from Campofelice di Roccella to Palermo. Looking inland, the verdant hills of the Madonie rise up at your back like a carpet of green. Best of all, the area is heavily protected by local planning regulations, which guarantee that no new developments can infringe on your view or sense of privacy and seclusion. A CLEAR PATH TO A FULLY RESTORED HOME The house sustained fire damage around a decade ago, but the load-bearing structure held firm thanks to the quality of its relatively recent construction. An extensive insurance dispute resulted in detailed court-commissioned surveys and laboratory analyses, providing comprehensive documentation of the building's condition. A full engineer's cost estimate has been drawn up for the renovation, covering a new roof, structural consolidation, replacement windows and floors, modern electrical and plumbing systems, heating and cooling, and solar panels. With the purchase and renovation combined, the total outlay is estimated at under €500,000. THE PEACE OF THE COUNTRYSIDE, WITH CONVENIENCE AND HISTORY ON HAND Despite its secluded hillside setting, the property is only a ten-minute drive from the centre of Cefalù, with its UNESCO-listed cathedral, golden sandy beach, and full range of shops and restaurants. The Madonie Natural Park is on the doorstep, and Palermo's international airport is about an hour away by car. Few locations in northern Sicily combine this kind of rural tranquillity with such easy access to the coast and its amenities. For buyers looking for space, views and value just outside one of the island's most desirable towns, Villa Caterina is as good a proposition as anything you'll find.

Villa Infinito - Capo d'Orlando A contemporary designer villa with sweeping sea views and a private pool, Villa Infinito commands a privileged hillside position in the sought-after Scafa district of Capo d'Orlando, on Sicily's Tyrrhenian coast. SENSATIONAL VIEWS AND A DESIGN TO SHOWCASE THEM With around 220m2 of living space on two floors, the villa is defined by its huge windows, which dominate the sea-facing northeastern wall of the property. The master bedroom has been meticulously laid out to allow the sea, and the Aeolian Islands on the horizon, to be the very first view that greets you as you wake. The open-plan ground floor boasts almost an entirely glazed wall facing the water, and the high-end steel kitchen, feature fireplace and scenic dining area are all set up in a way that you'll almost never have to take your eyes off the twinkling turquoise expanse unfolding a couple of hundred metres below you. Upstairs, three bedrooms all enjoy those sea views out towards the archipelago, and open onto a luxurious raised terrace that shows the panorama off to perfection. INFINITY POOL AND MEDITERRANEAN GROUNDS Nor is the estate lacking in natural beauty down at ground level. The 4,500m2 grounds are planted with over forty olive trees and ornamental palms. Taking pride of place alongside an inviting terrace, the infinity pool is an obvious centrepiece for the whole property, its edge appearing to merge with the sea beyond as you cool off in its clear, filtered waters. A covered carport, tool shed and well-kept driveway lined with tall trees complete the outdoor amenities. READY TO LIVE IN, READY TO EARN The property is in excellent condition with full planning compliance. It even has the necessary documentation to be used as a vacation rental if you're not planning to make it a year-round home and want to recoup some of the running costs when you're not here in person. Less than four kilometres from the centre of Capo d'Orlando and its modern marina, and roughly equidistant from Sicily's two main international airports, Villa Infinito is a great combination of luxury, privacy and practicality. Connected to municipal water and sewage, it also boasts gas-powered central heating, with radiators in every room. Air conditioning is also installed throughout.

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

Casa Matteo - Gratteri In the small village of Gratteri, seven kilometres inland and 650m above sea level in the heart of the Madonie Natural Park, Casa Matteo is a must-see for buyers interested in renovating an historic . MAGNIFICENT VIEWS OF THE SEA AND MOUNTAINS The steep terrain and the height of this terraced palazzo building combine to offer unobstructed sea views from the second and third floors. The former even has a balcony that offers you the chance to enjoy the fabulous coastal panorama in the open air. At the moment, the top floor kitchen only has a small window facing north towards the Tyrrhenian Sea, but we think that even a mid-budget renovation project would be able to create a terrace on this level that would give you a bird's eye view of an enormous swathe of northern Sicily. To the rear, Casa Matteo has a view of the surrounding village from the upper floors, which is as charming as the front is dramatic and memorable. FOUR STOREYS AND OVER 150M2 OF LIVING SPACE The home is divided into six rooms, which could be configured in a variety of ways. Most of these are over 15m2, and the largest space, a second floor pair of rooms connected through a broad archway, offers over 40m2, plus the sea-view balcony at the front. We imagine the finished home with two bedrooms on the lower levels, a beautiful living room-cum-diner on the second floor and an unforgettable kitchen with full-wall glazing opening onto a roof terrace at the top of the property. A RENOVATION CHALLENGE THAT OFFERS A RICH REWARD As you'll see from our virtual tour and photography, it is obviously going to be necessary to dedicate time and budget to the historic home. The exact budget will depend on your needs and tastes, as well as how much of the work you're in a position to take care of yourself. We estimate that the final investment will need to be in the region of €110,000 – really, a bargain for the chance to own a piece of Sicilian heritage that's been remodelled to your exact taste. Some features that we think it would be a shame not to incorporate into the final design include a staircase made from the rare and exceptionally durable Billiemi stone, two floors' worth of clay tiles and the antique bread oven which has been built into the kitchen. Take a tour and let your imagination start to work on this fascinating restoration project! FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Sea View Project - Collesano A partially completed hilltop villa offering panoramic views across olive groves to the Tyrrhenian Sea, Sea View Project is situated midway between Collesano and Lascari on Sicily's north coast. THE STRUCTURE AND LAND The load-bearing structure was completed around 1995 and covers approximately 150m2 across two floors – 100m2 on the ground floor and 48m2 on the first floor. Internal heights reach 4 metres at the ridge, and large openings provide excellent natural light. Both upstairs rooms have sea view balconies. The internal layout is completely flexible as only partition walls remain to be installed. The plot extends to nearly 18,000m2 of unfenced land currently planted with olive, almond and peach trees alongside Mediterranean scrub. The terrain slopes from 280m to 260m above sea level, with the steeper front section suitable for terracing and the gentler slopes ideal for cultivation. LOCATION AND ACCESS The property lies along the SP128 road connecting Lascari (5–7 minutes) to Collesano (20 minutes). Cefalù and its beaches are 20 minutes west, whilst Palermo and its international airport are an hour away. Access is via a dirt road requiring some basic repairs. The position offers total privacy with no direct neighbours, just rolling countryside and that exceptional view north across the Gulf of Termini Imerese. COMPLETION REQUIREMENTS All systems need to be installed from scratch, giving complete design freedom for water, electricity, heating, cooling and photovoltaic systems. Completion to a high standard would require approximately £200,000, addressing visible damp from weather exposure, installing all infrastructure, and fitting out to your specification. A swimming pool would cost an additional £30,000. The property shows no obvious structural damage despite decades of exposure, though terrace subsidence on the left side requires assessment during renovation.

Villa Ester - Porto Empedocle A detached countryside property split into two independent apartments, Villa Ester stands just two kilometres west of Porto Empedocle on Sicily's southern coast. TWO INDEPENDENT THREE-BEDROOM APARTMENTS Each apartment has three bedrooms and one bathroom. The upper apartment, raised slightly above ground level, features an open-plan kitchen and dining room with traditional tiled floors and patterned tiles in the master bedroom. A corridor leads to the bedrooms, with the middle room enjoying windows on two sides and the master opening onto countryside views. The lower apartment, partially below ground, has its own living space with a kitchen area and breakfast island. The bedrooms include one large enough to sleep four. All windows throughout the property have been replaced with new ones, though one bedroom on the lower level has no windows. SETTING NEAR SICILY'S MOST FAMOUS LANDMARKS The villa sits within grounds planted with 120 olive trees, offering both character and productive potential. A traditional pizza oven in the driveway adds rustic charm. The property is 1.5 kilometres from the coast at Lido Marinello, three kilometres from the Scala dei Turchi, and fifteen minutes from the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. Porto Empedocle's shops are ten minutes away, and both Palermo and Trapani airports can be reached within two hours. SOLID STRUCTURE BUT SOME RENOVATION NEEDED The structure is sound with no damp or structural issues, and the floors are in good condition. However, the façade requires attention where reinforcing steel has corroded, and the electrical system needs updating to modern standards. An old outbuilding's building volume could potentially be relocated elsewhere on the land. With these works completed, the property would suit buyers looking for rental income, multigenerational living or flexible guest accommodation in one of southern Sicily's most attractive and historically rich areas.

Case Anna - Rodi Milici In 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 CHARM The 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 TERRACE The 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 SETTING Everything 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. Nearby Milazzo is the gateway to the volcanic Aeolian Islands, and chic Taormina is only 30km to the south. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE
