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.

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.

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

Maison Brigitte - Santa Flavia A renovated one-bedroom apartment with a solid track record in the rental market, Casa Brigitte occupies the second floor of a small building on the main street of Santa Flavia, just twenty minutes from Palermo by train.

The apartment has previously featured in Airbnb’s selective Plus program. WALKABLE TOWN, CONNECTED COAST Santa Flavia’s train station is five minutes away on foot, with direct services to central Palermo (20 minutes) and along the coast towards Cefalù (under an hour). Cafés, shops and a greengrocer are steps from the front door, while larger supermarkets are close by in Bagheria. The fishing village of Porticello, the archaeological site of Solunto and several beaches, including the clear waters of Sant’Elia, are all within easy reach. Palermo airport is about 40 minutes by car. A SOUND ENTRY INTO A GROWING MARKET Casa Brigitte generates approximately €10,000 in gross annual rental income, with established guest reviews and occupancy history. The holiday rental market in Santa Flavia continues to strengthen as international visitors seek out authentic coastal alternatives to busier resort towns. At the time of writing, a third-floor apartment in the same building – with a 65m2 roof terrace – is also available, offering scope for expansion. This is a well-priced entry point into one of Sicily’s most promising coastal rental markets. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Colibrì - Santa Flavia A one-bedroom holiday home with a strong track record in the rental market, Casa Colibrì is a 1970s apartment that's been perfectly renovated and is sold with all furniture and fittings.

Direct trains connect you to central Palermo (20 minutes) and Cefalù (60 minutes). All daily amenities, including cafés, restaurants and grocery stores, are within five minutes' walk. The fishing village of Porticello, ancient Solunto archaeological site, and multiple beaches including Sant'Elia and the dramatic Kafara beach are all easily accessible. This is authentic coastal Sicily with modern infrastructure. You won't need to depend on your car, but can easily reach major cities, beautiful beaches and cultural landmarks. Palermo airport in 40 minutes away by car or only a little over an hour by public transport.

This is exactly the kind of premium amenity that drives higher rental rates and enthusiastic guest reviews. Santa Flavia has seen property values double over the past five years as international buyers discover this authentic alternative to overcrowded tourist destinations. The apartment's gross annual revenue has approached €15,000, and there is significant appreciation potential to this home in one of Sicily's fastest-growing coastal markets. We estimate that you would fully recoup your capital in just 10-12 years. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Ignazia - Cefalù A renovation project with real promise in one of Sicily’s most famous coastal towns, Casa Ignazia is found in the Kalura district of Cefalù, just twenty metres from the sea. CHARACTER THAT SHINES IN THE MORNING SUN Part of a historic coastal building divided among several owners, Casa Ignazia is arranged over two floors. The first-floor apartment has a bright bedroom with two windows, a living area with kitchen and an east-facing balcony that fills the rooms with morning light. The exterior is finished in attractive exposed stone, with a small enclosed garden. Upstairs in the attic, original wooden roof trusses present a striking architectural feature waiting to be revealed by a considered renovation. On the ground floor, two further rooms of around 20m2 each provide scope to expand the home into a generous two-level layout. One has its own independent entrance, and both could be connected internally to create a proper kitchen and living area below. RIGHT BY THE BEACH KNOWLEDGEABLE LOCALS FAVOUR The small rocky coves of Kalura are a well-kept secret. Many visitors to Cefalù never discover them, while the locals head here to escape the crowds in high season. The beach catches the morning sun and the water is clear and sheltered. Several hotels, bars and restaurants are within a short walk, including the Michelin-noted Il Capone at the five-star Hotel Le Calette. A lovely twenty-minute stroll past the lighthouse takes you into the heart of Cefalù, with its medieval streets, Arab-Norman cathedral, atmospheric piazzas and famous golden beach. You can park right outside your front door, too, which is a real advantage over the old town. The Madonie Natural Park is twenty minutes inland, and Palermo’s international airport about an hour to the west. A RENOVATION PROJECT THAT MAKES FINANCIAL SENSE A full renovation, from roof replacement to new systems and finishes, is estimated at €70,000 to €110,000. The total investment, including purchase, would still be well below the going rate for a finished home in this location. Demand for summer holiday rentals in Cefalù is strong, making this an attractive prospect for a buyer who wants a coastal retreat that can also earn its keep. Additional rooms within the same building may become available in the future, offering the chance to grow the property further. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Giulia - Trapani With a private terrace, a garden plot and an asking price well below the Sicilian average, Casa Giulia is an affordable renovation opportunity on the outskirts of Trapani. A BLANK CANVAS AT GROUND LEVEL The property is a ground-floor apartment with an open-plan living area, kitchen and bathroom, plus a large storage room with direct vehicle access from the street. The interior layout is ready to be reimagined by a new owner. Above the property is a rooftop terrace that belongs to the apartment alone, and adjoining it is a private plot of land. These outdoor spaces can be connected to create a garden – a combination you would not expect to find in a city-fringe property at this price. GATEWAY TO THE EGADI ISLANDS AND WESTERN SICILY'S FINEST BEACHES Casa Giulia sits less than a kilometre from the motorway exit for Trapani. The city’s beaches are three kilometres away, and the port – where ferries leave for Favignana, Levanzo and Marettimo – is a short drive. The famous salt flats stretch along the coast to the south, and the medieval citadel of Erice is reached by cable car or a winding drive up the mountain. San Vito Lo Capo, the Zingaro nature reserve and Palermo are all within easy reach. In the immediate neighbourhood you will find a supermarket, pharmacies and local shops. The property is in the municipality of Erice, but at sea level – the lower district that blends seamlessly into Trapani, not the medieval hill town above. A RENOVATION WITH RENTAL POTENTIAL The property needs a full renovation: electrical work, bathroom fixtures and new windows. It is currently unconnected to electricity and water, though the mains run along the street outside and connection is straightforward. All planning documentation is in order, including a certificate of habitability. A well-finished property in this location would have clear appeal on the short-term rental market, with the Egadi Islands and Trapani’s beaches drawing visitors throughout the year. At its asking price, Casa Giulia is an accessible way into one of the most undervalued corners of the Sicilian property market. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Enza - Casteldaccia Ready to use from day one and already generating rental income, Casa Enza is a modern four-level villa in a leafy residential street on the edge of Casteldaccia, on Sicily's north coast between Palermo and Cefalù. TWO APARTMENTS IN ONE VILLA The dual-entrance layout divides the property naturally into two independent homes. The owners currently live in the bright, well-equipped lower apartment, complete with bespoke kitchen, double bedroom and outdoor cooking area with a wood-fired oven. The lower apartment measures 123m2 and offers a contemporary open-plan living area with its own independent entrance. Upstairs two double bedrooms open onto corner balconies with a glimpse of the sea, and a loft conversion adds a mansard apartment with automated skylights that can function as a studio. Air conditioning throughout and excellent thermal insulation keep the villa comfortable in every season. SEA VIEWS FROM THE ROOFTOP TERRACE- A HOLIDAYMAKER'S DELIGHT At the top the loft conversion opens onto a spectacular private terrace with a panoramic sea view. The neighbourhood is green and leafy, and on the horizons the hills of this rugged stretch of coastline are on full display. The three upper floors operate as a licensed holiday rental with CIR and CIN registrations in place. You could easily continue that arrangement and generate a strong income stream, or unite everything into one large family residence. 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.

Villa Roberto - Trabia Recently renovated to one of Italy’s highest energy ratings, Villa Roberto is a modern three-bedroom semi-detached villa perched above the Tyrrhenian coast in Trabia, between Palermo and Cefalù. GREEN CREDENTIALS AND LOW RUNNING COSTS The A4 energy rating is backed up by a 6kW photovoltaic system with 10kW battery storage, thermally broken windows and new air conditioning throughout. An EV charging point in the four-car parking area completes the picture. Running costs will be a fraction of what you would expect from a traditional Sicilian property, and the environmental footprint is minimal. SEA VIEWS, EXPOSED BEAMS AND CONTEMPORARY DESIGN Built on an elevated plot, the villa rewards a short climb with panoramic views of the Tyrrhenian Sea from a broad wraparound terrace. The open-plan ground floor is flooded with light through large windows that frame the coastline, with a modern kitchen alongside the dining and living area and a bathroom finished in jumbo-format tiles. Upstairs, the master bedroom has an exposed wooden ceiling and its own private sea-view terrace. A second bedroom opens onto a shaded rear terrace, and at the top a loft conversion provides a third bedroom with en-suite bathroom and balcony. The interiors throughout combine clean contemporary lines with natural materials that give the home a genuine warmth. HALFWAY BETWEEN PALERMO AND CEFALU' Trabia is on the motorway between Sicily’s two most popular north-coast destinations. Palermo and its international airport are about half an hour to the west, Cefalù the same distance to the east. The fishing village of San Nicola l’Arena is just minutes away, with boat hire, harbourside restaurants and sandy beaches along the coast. POOL POTENTIAL AND ROOM TO GROW The terraced garden has ample space for a private pool, and a generous 15m2 ground-floor room offers the flexibility to add a fourth bedroom or a home office. At this asking price, a well-built, energy-efficient property with sea views and genuine room for further improvement represents serious value on the Sicilian north coast.

Casa Paolino - San Vito Lo Capo A rare find in one of Sicily’s most sought-after coastal towns, Casa Paolino is a fully renovated four-bedroom apartment with a private roof terrace, just 400 metres from the white sand beach of San Vito lo Capo. In the midst of a comprehensive renovation, it will be delivered in time for summer 2026. FOUR EN-SUITE BEDROOMS IN A RESTORED PALAZZO The apartment stands on the first floor of a small palazzo, which is being restored and remodelled from top to bottom. High-quality finishings will be matched by modern, fully certified wiring and plumbing and climate control systems. The 100 m2 of indoor space has been laid out to maximise the sleeping capacity with comfort for all guests, and a quartet of double bedrooms will each served by its own private bathroom. An open-plan living area will incorporate a modern fitted kitchen, and a bright entrance hall is going to connect the communal and private spaces. This is a configuration rarely found in San Vito, where most properties cater to smaller groups. A clever dual-access bathroom means the fourth bedroom can function as an independent suite or serve as a guest facility for the living area. A 100 m2 PRIVATE RETREAT ABOVE THE ROOFTOPS The exclusive roof terrace matches the apartment in size, and offer fabulous views of the sea on one side and the dramatic face of Monte Cofano on the other. Big enough to have an outdoor dining room, solarium and games area, it's private outdoor space on a scale that's absolutely priceless in this town. In peak season, when San Vito’s famous beach fills up, this huge private space will become an absolute haven in which to escape the crowds – a private retreat for long lunches, sunny afternoons and unforgettable dinners under the stars for you and your guests. EXCEPTIONAL RENTAL RETURNS IN A PREMIER LOCATION San Vito lo Capo’s booming short-term rental market and long tourist season make this an outstanding investment. Comparable properties sleeping eight guests command upwards of €2,000 per week in the summer, and the four en-suite bedrooms and panoramic terrace place Casa Paolino at the very top of the local market. The nearest supermarket is a two-minute walk away and the Riserva dello Zingaro just twenty minutes by car. Trapani and Palermo airports are both roughly an hour’s drive away, and premier tourist attractions from the seafront of Castellammare del Golfo and the ancient ruins of Segesta to the mountaintop fortified town of Erice and the salt pans of Trapani are all within easy reach.

Casa Bianca - Castellammare del Golfo Fully renovated and ready to move into, Casa Bianca is a chic two-bedroom apartment in an impeccable location. With panoramic views over the gulf and harbour of Castellammare del Golfo, it would make an incredible second home or a very promising investment. OLD TOWN CHARM WITH A STYLISH CONTEMPORARY INTERIOR The apartment is found on the first floor of a terraced building on Via Arco Florio, above one of the towns popular pizzerias. A short walk away are all of the beautiful attractions of the Arab-Norman old town, including its tenth century castle, wide pedestrianised avenues and bustling marina. The city beach is directly beneath you, down a staircase that's long enough to ensure you get a cooling sea breeze without any unwelcome sand blowing in. Around 90 m2 of living space has been transformed by a comprehensive renovation which has seen everything from the roof and floors to the certified electrical and plumbing systems completely remodelled to luxury standards. Grey resin flooring, designer furnishings and a kitchen by the sought-after Italian brand Lago give the interiors a sleek, modern feel which contrasts beautifully with the historic setting outside. TWO BEDROOMS, TWO BATHROOMS, GULF VIEWS The master bedroom has a four-poster bed, en-suite bathroom and a Juliet balcony. A second double bedroom and guest bathroom complete the sleeping quarters. The 27 m2 open-plan kitchen and living area is oriented towards the sea, with a sloping ceiling that rises to a maximum height of four metres and a large window perfectly framing view of the water below.

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 Davide - Solanto Overlooking the little piazza at the heart of its historic fishing village, Casa Davide is a two-bedroom apartment in the Borgo di Solanto, within the municipality of Santa Flavia. With private access to a beach just a few metres away and Palermo's airport only a 45 minute drive, it would make a gorgeous holiday home on Sicily's north coast. PRIVATE ACCESS TO THE SEA The Borgo di Solanto grew up around a castle built in the twelfth century to protect the local tuna fishery and later became a retreat for Sicilian aristocrats and Bourbon royalty. The exclusive atmosphere continues to this day, as Casa Davide enjoys a private right of way down to a beach club on the small stretch of seafront just a few metres away. Housed within a little condominium with just two other apartments, it benefits from a dual entrance, with a raised front porch overlooking the sunny town square and a shared courtyard at street level to the rear. PERIOD CHARACTER AND MODERN COMFORTS High ceilings, original tiled floors and solid wood window frames give the apartment the feel of a proper Sicilian home. The spacious living room is big enough for a sizeable dining table and shares with the compact kitchen a lovely view of the piazza in front of the property. To the rear, beyond the two double bedrooms, the bathroom has been recently renovated with smart new tiling and a large walk-in shower. An underground cistern of 18,000 litres and air conditioning in the living area ensure year-round comfort. MINUTES FROM PALERMO, BUT COMPLETE PEACE AND SERENITY On the headland of Mongerbino and Monte Catalfano, just ten kilometres east of Sicily's boisterous capital city, Solanto feels a world away. Facing out onto the long lazy Gulf of Termini Imerese, it has views of twinkling sea and green hills that rise up to the mountains of the Madonie Natural Park. Nonetheless, the metropolis can be reached in just twenty minutes by road or rail - Santa Flavia station is under two kilometres away. You'll find convenient supermarkets and everyday infrastructure in nearby Bagheria and Casteldaccia. Cefalù is about forty minutes by car, and the international airport under 45 minutes. It's actually remarkable that despite this convenience and the heritage of Solanto, the village itself is almost totally undisturbed by mass tourism. There would, however, be a market for such a charming and well-located apartment as a short-term holiday let. READY FOR IMMEDIATE USE The property is fully habitable, with all services connected and a recently modernised bathroom. Some cosmetic updates could give it an extra layer of polish, but there would be absolutely no pressure to do any work before you move in.
