Casa Li Bianchi - Pollina PARTIALLY RESTORED THREE-BEDROOM HOUSE IN THE MADONIE SPACIOUS AND BURSTING WITH POTENTIAL On three storeys (though mostly on two), with balconies offering magic views of the Madonie Natural Park and as far as Mount Etna on the horizon, Casa Li Bianchi is a restoration project that would make a second home, popular guest house or the perfect spot from which to smartwork in dazzling surroundings. With room for three, perhaps four bedrooms and all the character of a Sicilian home, this house will make a perfect place to bring a large family for holidays, or even to start a new life in the sun. SEA VIEWS AND GREEN HILLSIDES Pollina is a delightful hilltop village with astonishing views, up into the hills of the park but notably out to the Mediterranean sea, which lies just a few kilometres to the north. A stone's throw from Cefalù, within easy reach of Palermo and with the Aeolian Islands in full view on a clear day, this little escape 400m above sea level has remained beautifully untouched by the throngs of mass tourism and retains an unmistakeable Sicilian charm. A JOB ALREADY HALF COMPLETE Renovating old property on the island can be fraught with challenges, but this is a superb opportunity for a first timer. The entire skeleton, save for one small internal room, has been recently rebuilt to a high, seismic-safe standard, with new walls, roof, floors, doors, and balconies. Even the pipes are still gleaming! Take advantage of the chance to do the fun part – the interior design, the finishing touches – and end up with the Sicilian hideaway you always dreamt of, with a fraction of the time and expense needed to take on the majority of the renovation projects the island has to offer.

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.

Plot Dispenza – Collesano A beautiful stretch of sea-view land on the hillsides of northern Sicily, Plot Dispenza offers nearly two hectares of meadow and olive trees, bursting with potential. The plot is beautiful and the location scenic, but the real key asset here is the fact that it has been classed as Zone C 'buildable' land. In contrast to most land which becomes available to the international market, this allows for a far larger-scale development project. Ready to develop, with permission to build On 'Zone C' land it is permitted to build 0.1m3 of habitable structure for every m2 of ground space. In the case of Plot Dispenza that translates to 600m2 of housing or accommodation. This is enough to build a medium-sized holiday village or glamping resort for tourists, a residential complex suitable for timeshare or second homes, or simply four or five detached villas, depending on the scale of each. Of course, it would also be possible to build a single structure, a really vast luxury home. But from an investment standpoint the best returns are likely to come from dividing the land. Five kilometres from the beach, in the foothills of a stunning Natural Park The site is directly adjacent to the SP9 road which runs downhill from Collesano, on the lower slopes of the picturesque Madonie Natural Park, to Campofelice di Roccella on the Tyrrhenian Sea. With the iconic beach town of Cefalù less than half an hour to the east, and the international airport at Palermo just an hour to the west, the location is a perfect one. Collesano is an extremely popular destination with the international market, and even in this out-of-town district we have recently helped buyers from Austria, Germany and the USA buy villas and land in the immediate neighbourhood. It is a wonderful, open-minded community where the best of traditional Sicilian heritage blends seamlessly with new arrivals from all corners of the world. If you are ready to take on a challenge, Plot Dispenza is incredibly rich in potential. Don't miss the full listing on our site.
