Palazzo Peri - Collesano A vast complex covering 800m2, right in the heart of a historic Sicilian town, Palazzo Peri stands at the very heart of Collesano in the Madonie Natural Park. An eighteenth century building with wonderful history, it would be a wonderfully inspiring project to take on. With over twenty rooms, on three storeys, and an entire deconsecrated church included in the sale, we're not overselling this when we describe it as one of the most remarkable real estate opportunities to have passed across our desk since we first entered the industry A STATELY HOME WITH A BAROQUE FACADE The living space is huge, with sixteen rooms plus kitchens and bathrooms. Almost all of these are large enough to become a spacious double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. Two at the front of the property have ornately decorated balconies, and those on the top floor have fabulous views over the rooftops of Collesano to the green hills of the surrounding natural park. The marble staircases and tiled floors are still in very good condition for a building of this age. The plastering will obviously need to be completely redone, and the connections for plumbing and electricity installed as if from scratch. But there are beautiful elements to salvage, like the sturdy antique doors and the built-in pizza oven on the second floor kitchen. THE OLD CHAPEL, COURTYARD AND STOREROOMS The church is a large space, the size of a typical chapel, with a three-storey high roof and a simple layout. Off this, to the side, is a Sacristy which occupies two floors. To the rear is an L-shaped courtyard which is currently covered in grass, and runs up a slope. It receives sunshine in the middle of the day and could become an attractive little garden. Lastly, on the far side of this courtyard, you will find a complex of seven separate storerooms which are each big enough to hold machinery or large quantities of produce. AN OPPORTUNITY YOU REALLY DON'T SEE EVERY DAY The chance to restore a building with this kind of history – and this much sheer space – is a really rare and precious one. It could become a one-of-a-kind luxury villa for an investor who wants to entertain large numbers of guests in truly lavish style. Alternatively, perhaps its future lies as separate apartments – it should be possible to realise at least six or seven, all of good size. As a final possibility, it would be very easy to picture Palazzo Peri as a boutique luxury hotel, with a spa and sun terrace, offering huge characterful rooms in a magical medieval context. The bells of the old Chiesa Madre of Collesano echo from the fortified tower just across the street, and the cobbled streets of this enchanting old town are as atmospheric as the surrounding mountain- and sea-views are breathtaking.

Casa Marino - Gangi IN ITALY'S ORIGINAL “MOST BEAUTIFUL VILLAGE”: TWO BEDROOM RENOVATED PROPERTY FOR SALE IN THE MADONIE NATURAL PARK Where is Italy's most beautiful village? Opinions will vary as widely as traditional pasta recipes, but the community of Gangi in the Madonie hills of Sicily has a better claim than most. In 2014, a heritage association called I borghi piu belli d'Italia (“Italy's most beautiful villages”) held what became an annual competition to find the nation's most picturesque community – and Gangi ran out the inaugural winner. Casa Marino is a beautiful restoration project in the historic old town of this magical hillside settlement. With a centuries-old construction giving it the sturdiest possible skeleton and no expense spared on the painstaking revamp, it is a fabulous opportunity to own a heritage property for a reasonable price A UNIQUE SHAPE AND DESIGN The house is on the end of a pair of terraces, tapering towards a wedged end that makes it look more of a tower than a family home when approached from one side. However, the four long storeys in fact combine to offer a surprisingly large 137m2 of habitable space. The narrow end of the building is a stairwell, and the wider part follows the same floor plan for the first three floors: a corridor leading past a bathroom with a large shower to a living or bedroom at the property's broadest section. LOCAL CRAFTSMANSHIP The materials used in the recent renovation are top quality, with locally produced floor tiles, sparkling bathroom fittings and crisp plaster accentuating the sections of the original, nearly metre-thick, stone walls which have been left on display in large sections of the property. The roof has also been repaired and is now in excellent condition. Only the stairwell is in need of work at this stage, and there are certainly no issues which would stop you moving in as soon as you complete the purchase. A really unique property, you won't regret taking a longer look at Casa Marino.
