House in Mistretta
Mistretta, Messina
Casa Marinella - Mistretta A fabulous value-for-money proposition for a buyer with a little time to invest and the appetite for a renovation, Casa Marinella is a four-bedroom villa with an unbeatable view. Miles of Stunning Hillside Laid Out in Front of You On the western edges of the Nebrodi Natural Park, less than four kilometres from the hilltop town of Mistretta, Casa Marinella stands on the western bank of a dramatic valley, which plunges 400m downhill over just a couple of kilometres, directly to the rear of the house. With the mountains opposite rising up to peaks over a thousand metres above sea level, and the waters of the Mediterranean visible on the horizon away to your left, it's a magical panorama almost completely undisturbed by human activity. The two-storey villa has been built to take full advantage of this, at the top of a 4,000m2 plot filled with over a hundred olive and fruit trees, but offering an uninterrupted view over their green canopy from the ground floor terrace and the balcony upstairs. The lower level has nearly 50m2 of mostly covered patio, including an outdoor kitchen with traditional stone fireplaces and grill. This is a property which will transport you to a simpler way of life, in contact with nature and the food chain. 220M2 OF LIVING SPACE ON TWO FLOORS Of course, there is also a conventional kitchen indoors with an antique bread oven, none the less spacious and with room for a family dining table. Joining it on the ground floor are a living room whose window overlooks the valley, and a bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Each of these last two spaces have patio doors straight out onto the terrace. On the first floor you'll find four more rooms and a second bathroom, although the fixtures for this are yet to be installed. Two of the rooms have valley views (even taking in the sea seven kilometres to the north, on a clear day), and the home is flanked by the balcony on two sides. To the rear there is another terrace, a large flat space which takes full advantage of the gradient of the land. A RENOVATION PROJECT WITH A FABULOUS PAYOFF There is a lot of work to be done before Casa Marinella can be said to be truly complete – the upper floor in particular is very much a work in progress. The walls need to be plastered and even, in some points, raised to the level of the roof. The floor is still in cement, and all of the decoration will need to be done from scratch. Of course, the advantage of this is that you can set the place up to look exactly as you would like. The ground floor could be used straight away, and indeed you could live there while working upstairs. At some point it, too, will need a fair amount of work however, with the wiring, windows and bathroom all in particular need of attention. Casa Marinella is definitely a project house – but for the sum of the purchase price and an investment around €100,000 you could own a really stunning big home fifteen minutes from the sea in one of Sicily's most underrated regions.

Land in Collesano
Collesano, Palermo
Plot Cinzia - Collesano Expansive and unspoilt, the huge hillside estate that is Plot Cinzia is a dream for the kind of buyer who is at peace with nature and doesn't back away from a challenge. While the old cottage that currently stands on the southern edge of the plot will need to be rebuilt from scratch, the raw beauty of this Sicilian country land is bursting with possibility. A BIRD'S EYE VIEW ON THE COAST The estate spreads over some 20 acres (80,000m2) of countryside on the western edge of the Madonie Natural Park, a few kilometres north of the picturesque little village of Collesano. The land slopes down towards the bottom of a valley which feeds into the Tyrrhenian Sea at the coastal town of Campofelice di Roccaella. The majority of the estate is woodland, home to a diverse range of trees and wildlife. The emptier pastures open up on the lower slopes to give a fabulous view of the sea in the middle distance, 8 kilometres away and about 400m downhill. The two existing buildings on the land are 100m2 and 40m2 respectively. You could work off this footprint, but the size of the pot means that the option would be available to create a much larger villa, complete with a guest house and swimming pool. HAVEN OF BIODIVERSITY You will find the soil fertile, with olive oil produced from trees in this region considered to be of particularly high quality. There are over a hundred olive trees on the plot at present, and one could easily imagine a buyer adding many more. You will also find a wide variety of trees and bushes, many of which bear fruit and nuts of all varieties. The land is home to numerous species of bird as well as hares, lizards and small mammals. There is already a well on the land, and you would certainly be able to achieve true sustainability and energy independence if you were to invest in solar panels to power and heat your new home. LESWS THAN HALF AN HOUR TO THE BEACH While the drive into Collesano is no more than six or seven minutes, you will also find it very easy to reach the towns at sea level. Both Campofelice and Lascari have lovely stretches of coastline, and the famous resort of Cefalù is only a 35 minute drive. Palermo and its international airport can be reached in an hour.

Apartment in Bagheria
Bagheria, Palermo
Appartamento Bitta - Bagheria Compact but practical, and with a great old town location, Appartamento Bitta is a one-bedroom, ground floor flat in the heart of Bagheria. With all of the attractions of the town within easy walking distance, and the beaches of the Capo Zafferano peninsula just a stone's throw away, this is a great opportunity to get yourself a holiday home in Sicily without leaving the area of Palermo. Smartly Designed and Well Presented With about 50m2 of internal space made to feel deceptively spacious by high ceilings and a minimalist design, the apartment is divided into four spaces: kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom. There is also some storage in a little loft. The bedroom is the biggest of the four, with plenty of space for a double bed and other furniture. The exposed wooden beams on the ceiling lend a nice rustic touch. The living room and kitchen are neat and functional, and the bathroom contains a box shower. A Lively and Traditional Community Bagheria is a socially active town of about 25,000 people, which buzzes with activity all year round. The community boasts not one but two Michelin-starred restaurants, and some excellent options for traditional Sicilian cuisine. The small villages which surround the town to the north, around the edge of the peninsula, are havens for great fresh seafood. The centre of Palermo can be reached in a matter of twenty minutes by train, bus or car. The Sicilian capital has expanded in recent years, but there is still a strip of green belt before you get to Bagheria, which allows the market town to retain a distinctive sense of its own identity. Hassle-free and Affordable There is no need to spend anything on Appartamento Bitta, it is in good condition and ready to be used right away. As a budget option to serve as a base for holidays in Sicily which is convenient all year round, and not just in the high season, it is a great option for the price point, and unlikely to stay on the market for long.

Just outside the small town of San Salvatore di Fitalia, 10km inland and 550m above sea level, they are a chance to escape from the stresses and intensity of the world in total harmony with the surrounding countryside. The houses can be bought separately or together. Each has its own sizeable plot of land, and shared use of an access road. Casa Vasi is ready to be lived in straight away, while Casa Calderaro is a restoration project. A home to use straight away... With 70m2 of living space on the upper floor and a 25m2 basement, Casa Vasi is compact but efficient in its use of space. A long, thin home with four rooms, it opens directly into a large living room with an open fireplace and garden-view window. The bedroom is probably the nicest space, with plenty of light, especially in the morning. It offers a balcony with a fabulous view, looking down along the valley to the sea. There is also a neat kitchen with a larder and a bathroom with a shower. Casa Vasi is in good condition, with a recent renovation having completely overhauled the property. The wiring and plumbing are in good condition, as is the roof. You'll find neat, well-maintained plaster on the walls, aluminium windows with wooden shutters and a roof that's in a fine state of repair. It is sold fully furnished, with all contents as seen. ...and one to renovate Casa Calderaro is a similar size and shape to Casa Vasi, and also has that wonderful valley-view balcony. There the similarities end, however, as this house has been completely stripped of all plaster, partitions and utilities. With the exception of a few floor tiles which you might choose to reuse it's a blank canvas. The windows on the long side of the space have a lovely hillside view, better in fact than the other apartment has to offer. The roof seems to be well maintained too. And there is the same basement underneath the main living area. However, a significant investment of time and capital will be needed to turn this back into a modern living space.

Italy
Property for sale in Italy divides between move-in homes and restoration projects, and the asking price rarely shows which is which. Prices run from around €20,000 (£17,000) to over €2m, with 504 homes under €100,000.
Tuscany and the northern lakes sit at the top, while Umbria, Abruzzo, Apulia and Sicily return far more house for the money. Use the filters to narrow by region, price and property type.
Why buy property in Italy
Italy offers the widest gap between entry and prime of any market we cover. Prices run from around €20,000 for a village house needing work to over €2m for a Tuscan estate, with 1,693 homes inside a €300,000 budget. Tuscany, Umbria and the northern lakes carry the recognisable names and the prices to match, while Abruzzo, Apulia, Sicily and Sardinia return considerably more space for the same money. Restoration is the norm rather than the exception, and the cost of the work is rarely reflected in the asking price.

What is the property buying process in Italy?
A typical Italy purchase follows:
(1) offer accepted,
(2) due diligence (title, mortgages/charges, planning and cadastral conformity),
(3) preliminary contract (compromesso) with deposit (caparra),
(4) mortgage/finance (if needed) and final checks,
(5) completion at the notary signing the deed (rogito) and transferring funds,
(6) notary registers ownership with the land registry and updates cadastral records.
In Italy, verifying urban planning + cadastral conformity (often with a geometra) is a major risk-reducer, especially for older homes.

What is a “Codice Fiscale” and why do I need it to buy in Italy?
The Codice Fiscale is your Italian tax code and it’s required for key steps in a property purchase—signing contracts, opening utilities, paying taxes, and often for banking. Many overseas buyers apply early because it can delay the preliminary contract (compromesso) and completion if it isn’t ready.
Your lawyer can usually guide the application process, or you can obtain it via the Italian tax office or consulate route depending on your situation.
