Casa Giovanni - Modica Spread over three floors opposite the Duomo di San Giorgio, Casa Giovanni occupies a corner of the former Jewish quarter in the upper town of Modica. The city is one of the UNESCO-listed baroque centres of south-eastern Sicily. Three Floors and Two Entrances The house was formed by combining two homes, and the finished design retains two independent entrances. The upper door, just below the neighbourhood belvedere, leads into a bright living floor with kitchen and service bathroom. A balcony here looks straight at the dome of San Giorgio, and the exposed timber roof rises to around 4.5 metres at its peak. An internal staircase descends to a bedroom, a shower room and a second small balcony. Below again is a large vaulted room at street level with its own entrance. A small storeroom across the lane holds the water cisterns and pump, with space for general storage. A Neighbourhood that's both Noble and Nobel The poet Salvatore Quasimodo, Nobel laureate, was born in the palazzo next door, and his birthplace is now a well-known cultural site. Restaurants, cafes and the monuments of the centre are a short walk through the stepped lanes, with parking available near the belvedere above the house. Around the neighbourhood, restoration work can be seen breathing new life into numerous historic streets and alleyways. When you need to come and go, a limited range of flights are available through Comiso airport, only 20 km away to the north. Catania's international hub is reachable by car in only 90 minutes by road, offering connections throughout Europe and even direct flights to the Eastern US. Costed Works and Letting Potential Casa Giovanni is usable now, but we would recommend pricing some work into your budget. We suggest a review of the roof, the rebuilding of one balcony and, in time, new windows. Internal estimates suggest around €15,000 for facades and balconies, plus €5,000 to €6,000 for glazing. With its own entrance, the vaulted lower floor could become a guest suite, studio or holiday-let space. Under professional management it could bring in an indicative €10,000 to €12,000 a year. A natural cavity in the rock behind one wall, still to be verified by a surveyor, could add a highly distinctive design feature and some extra living space. This would make an affordable entry into the baroque heart of Modica.

Casa Francesco - Sant'Agata With two furnished floors and views to the Aeolian Islands, Casa Francesco is a hillside house above Sant'Agata Militello. High in the Nebrodi Hills The house is around 480m above sea level and under 3km from the coast. It stands in a quiet cluster of about ten homes, near the old San Basilio cross. From this north-facing hillside the view runs across the Gulf to the Aeolian Islands. The town centre, with its shops, schools and train station, is a fifteen-minute drive down the hill. The A20 motorway between Palermo and Messina is just as close. Two Apartments of 85m2 Each Casa Francesco is split into two fully independent floors. One is entered at ground level and the other by a short private ramp higher up. Each has its own kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms, and the upper floor's wraparound balcony holds the sea in view. Two families could buy and live here side by side, or one family could keep the second floor for guests. Furnished, with Room to Improve The sale includes all the furniture, from the long wooden kitchen upstairs to the pellet and wood stoves on each floor. A modest round of updates would bring the house fully up to date at a low cost by Sicilian standards. That means new window frames, a boiler to reconnect the existing radiators and rendering for the facade. The sloping roof would also take solar panels well. Remarkable Value for Money This is a furnished, two-apartment home with open sea views, a short drive from both the coast and the Nebrodi Natural Park. It suits a family wanting space and privacy, two households under one roof, or a main home with a separate wing for guests. The updates it needs are cosmetic rather than structural, so you can move in and improve at your own pace. At this level of the Sicilian market, it leaves room in the budget for the work described above. FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Air conditioning, double glazing with mosquito screens, excellent internet and external security cameras make the house as practical as it is charming. Outside, a paved and furnished veranda under a wooden canopy adds real living space for most of the year. Beaches, Reserves and the Valley of the Temples Nearby The coast is less than two kilometres away, with the wild WWF reserve of Torre Salsa on one side and the popular beach at Siculiana Marina a quarter of an hour from the door. The Scala dei Turchi and the Valley of the Temples at Agrigento are both around half an hour away, while the village of Montallegro, seven minutes by car, covers daily essentials. 5,800m2 of Land with Mains Water on the Way The level ground around the house has been cleared and is ready to use, while a lower strip of the plot invites a project of your own, whether terraces, an olive grove or a Mediterranean garden. Water comes from a 10,000 litre cistern for now, with a connection to the municipal mains already planned for the area. As a newly built, low-maintenance holiday home with land, beaches and world-class archaeology all within easy reach, Casetta Marcella occupies an appealing corner of the Sicilian market.

Casale Torrazza - Valderice A historic ruin on almost 1.2 hectares of land, Casale Torrazza is found in the hills of Trapani province, with views towards Mount Erice and the surrounding countryside. A Two-Storey Ruin, Ready to Restore The ruins occupy the highest point of the plot across two storeys, with much of the perimeter walling still standing, in places close to four metres high, hinting at how large and airy the original rooms once were. Two sections of the building are registered for habitable use, with a combined floor area of around 420 square metres between them. One of the two current owners is an architect and has already lodged the initial application with Sicily's heritage authority, which should save a buyer some of the usual wait before building work can start. A private well on the land supplies water independently of the mains, and the pending application already includes provision for a swimming pool. In the Hills of Trapani Province The property looks out over vineyards, olive groves and old bagli scattered through the hills of Trapani province, with the hilltop town of Erice above and the city of Trapani sixteen kilometres away. San Vito lo Capo's beach is around twenty kilometres and half an hour by car, and Trapani's airport is a similar distance, with Palermo's around ninety minutes further along the coast. A Restoration Ready to Begin Depending on your design choices and the materials you want to use, restoring a property like this typically costs somewhere between €1,500 and €3,000 per square metre. Of course, this is on top of the purchase price, but our project management service can offer local know-how and negotiation skills to guarantee the best possible return for your money. We would take care of the whole process from planning permission to completion, working alongside the architect who has already begun the paperwork here. Whether you picture the final result as a single expansive home or a handful of holiday apartments, this would make a spectacular and potentially cost-effective entry into the Sicilian property market FOR A FULL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE

Casa Franco - Mistretta Surrounded by five hectares of olives and fruit trees, Casa Franco is a two-storey country house of around 180 m2 in the hills above Mistretta, at the end of its own private drive. A 180 m2 House to Renovate The ground floor holds the kitchen, with a brick fireplace in one corner, a large living area and a further room for dining or sleeping, all connecting directly with the terrace outside. Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a large central room, with small balconies over the hillside and ceilings of 2.75 metres. The house needs renovation before it meets contemporary standards, but it is a solid base rather than a ruin. An essential refit might cost around €50,000 to €90,000, while a complete refurbishment, including a three-bedroom layout upstairs, could run from €100,000 to €180,000 or more. Five Hectares, a Spring and Two Outbuildings According to the sellers, the olive grove can yield more than 300 litres of oil in a favourable year, with apricots, pears, persimmons and prickly pears growing alongside ornamental planting. A natural spring flows all year round, supported by a 5,000-litre cistern. A stone outbuilding near the house and a former store along the drive could become guest quarters or an independent annexe, subject to the necessary permissions, opening the way to hosting family or small-scale rural tourism. Daily Life in Mistretta, Beach Days at Santo Stefano di Camastra Mistretta's shops, pharmacies, bars and restaurants are a few minutes by car, the coast at Santo Stefano di Camastra is 25 to 30 minutes away and Cefalù about 45. The airports of Palermo and Catania are roughly equidistant from the estate. For buyers who want land, water and privacy on a realistic budget, and the chance to build value through renovation, the whole project adds up here.

Villa Antonella - Sciacca With three independent homes and an olive grove, Villa Antonella occupies gated grounds in the coastal countryside of Maragani, a short drive west of Sciacca. It would suit an extended family, a group of friends or a holiday letting investment. Two Apartments, a Cottage and Shared Outdoor Spaces Around 200 square metres of living space are divided between a red-fronted villa, split into two apartments, and a separate white cottage. Each apartment has a kitchen-diner of about 16 square metres, two bedrooms, a bathroom and its own entrance and outdoor space, with double glazing, mosquito screens and air conditioning. The cottage adds an open-plan living room and kitchen, a bedroom and a bathroom served by a 300-litre solar thermal system. Between the buildings, a 32 square metre communal kitchen with bathroom fronts a shaded veranda where all three households can eat together, and there is a 20 square metre garage plus parking in the paved courtyard. Solar Power and 22,000 Litres of Water Storage A 6 kW photovoltaic system with around 15 kWh of battery storage supplies all three homes, while mains water is backed by two cisterns totalling roughly 22,000 litres, a serious advantage through the Sicilian summer. Double glazing, shutters and mosquito screens keep the apartments comfortable in every season. Holiday Lettings or One Reunified Villa The sea is 350 metres away and the fenced grounds extend to about 1,700 square metres, with room for a pool in the olive grove subject to consent. As it stands the property can host several families at once, an ideal shape for holiday letting, with Selinunte under half an hour away and Agrigento's Valley of the Temples about an hour and a quarter. The floor plans identify the partition wall dividing the main villa, so a buyer could also recreate a single four-bedroom home with a guest annexe. The price takes account of the work still to do, leaving room in a sensible budget for the transformation. Contact us for plans, photographs and a viewing.

Palazzo Lorenzo - Sant'Agata di Militello A huge 1950s building with the space and layout to run your own hospitality business, Palazzo Lorenzo is found close to the old town of Sant’Agata di Militello, a year-round Sicilian town on the northern coast rather than a seasonal resort. If you have ever considered swapping the commute for a bed and breakfast by the sea, this is a property to take seriously. Six Apartments, Three Garages and a Roof Terrace The ground floor holds three garages covering around 350 square metres, enough to park six cars and take parking off the table for future guests. Upstairs, six apartments of between 75 and 120 square metres bring the residential total to around 570 square metres, with the whole building coming to over 900m2. A 140m2 roof terrace crowns the building, ready to become a breakfast spot, a lounge or a garden. A Blank Canvas for Your Own Guest House The building needs a full renovation: damp treatment, new windows, new doors, a heating system and extra bathrooms. But if the plan is to design a guest house from scratch, this is an advantage rather than a drawback. You have complete freedom to redraw the layouts, fit en-suite bathrooms and create exactly the kind of space your guests will want to come back to. 250 Metres From the Beach The smart, palm-lined seafront is a short walk away, with a deep sandy beach and a promenade that would feature heavily in any holiday listing. The old town, with the Castello Gallego and piazza Duomo, is three or four minutes on foot, and a well-connected train station puts Cefalù and Palermo within easy reach. For a buyer ready to build a hospitality business on the Sicilian coast, this listing has the scale, the location and the price to make it happen.

The Twelve Labors had finally come to an end. The Nemean Lion had been strangled, the Lernaean Hydra beheaded, the Erymanthian Boar captured, the Augean Stables cleansed. Hercules, the greatest of the Greek heroes, had challenged monsters, titans, and gods, sailed stormy seas, and crossed the dark underworld. But now, weary and marked by battle, the mighty demigod sought a place to lay down his club and set aside the lion's skin. A place where no one could find him, where the noise of the world was nothing more than a distant whisper. The winds carried him to a land blessed by the gods. It was Sicily, the most beautiful island in the Mediterranean, where the sun kissed the earth and the sea shimmered with a blue that not even the sky could match. Hercules ventured into the hills, following the scent of olive trees and ancient carob trees, until he reached a hidden valley nestled among four hills. There, where nature had carved a perfect amphitheater, he decided to stay. With his immense hands, the same hands that had once held up the heavens upon his shoulders, he began to build. He did not want a city, nor a royal palace. He wanted a refuge, a secret home where the warrior could become a man. So, stone by stone, he raised a house that no one was ever meant to find. Its walls were as thick as his chest, its ceilings as high as his stature, and its windows opened onto a view that only a hero could deserve. But the giant did not stop at architecture. With the same determination he had shown against the Hydra, he dug deep into the earth to uncover hot springs. He wanted his body to heal, for muscles worn by endless labors to find relief in the warmth of the earth. He created pools where the water flowed as if by magic, and chambers where steam embraced the body like a divine embrace. That place was more than a house: it was a temple of well-being, a sanctuary where even a demigod could rediscover peace. The centuries passed. The city of Modica grew around that secret refuge, climbing over the four hills like a bride dressing herself for her groom. The earthquake of 1693 leveled almost everything, but Hercules' dwelling endured, protected by the supernatural strength that only a god could bestow. And when the city rose again, more beautiful than before, embracing the Baroque style with irresistible passion, the demigod's house transformed as well, adorning itself with balconies and stone grotesque masks that still ward off evil spirits today, like silent guardians of an ancient secret. Today that dwelling stands in Piazza Principe di Napoli, in the heart of Baroque Modica, which UNESCO has crowned a World Heritage Site. Stepping into this house means walking on the very stones that Hercules laid with his divine hands. Time seems to have stood still, yet everything is extraordinarily modern. The whirlpool tub is the heir to the thermal springs the giant once discovered. The sensory shower and the sauna pay tribute to his need for renewal after battle. The cozy bedrooms are the place where the warrior could finally close his eyes without fear. Three bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a terrace overlooking the city of bridges: every detail tells the story of the one who built this refuge with love and sacrifice. Today, after three thousand years, Hercules' dwelling seeks a new hero. Someone who has completed their own labors, faced their own battles, and deserves to possess a fragment of legend. Because this is not a vacation home, nor merely a property: it is the secret refuge of the greatest of heroes, the place where myth became stone and comfort became history. The few who have had the privilege of crossing its threshold have called it a dream. But they do not know what you know. They do not know that it is not just a house, but the home that Hercules built for himself.

An Elegant City Home with Character This is a property for those who want to live in Palermo’s historic centre without giving up space, elegance and comfort. The apartment has been renovated to offer modern usability while preserving the character of the historic building.

Appartamento Melina - Palermo On the eleventh floor of a well-managed complex in south Palermo, Appartamento Melina is a three-bedroom, 165m2 penthouse with incredible views of the city's rooftops and the Tyrrhenian Sea to the north. Space, Light and a Sociable Floor Plan Windows on both east and west elevations mean the apartment stays bright and airy light throughout the day, with sea-view sunrises on one side and city sunsets on the other.

The living room opens onto a long balcony overlooking rooftops and green space, with double exposure ensuring the living areas are never short of natural light. The kitchen-diner, is the pick of the family spaces, a generously sized and versatile hub with a large cooking area at one end and a dining section that can comfortably seat the whole family at the other. There's even room for a comfortable little lounge with sofas and the stylish built-in bookshelves around the archway entrance. A Quiet Address with Excellent Connections Appartamento Melina is on via Santa Maria di Gesù, a calm residential street in Palermo’s Guadagna district, directly opposite a public park. The city centre is five minutes by car. Palermo Guadagna railway station is a fifteen-minute walk, with direct services into central Palermo in about ten minutes.

Casa Nido - Porticello Tucked into a quiet square just steps from the harbour, Casa Nido is a cosy studio apartment in the fishing village of Porticello. Originally a storage room, this raised ground-floor apartment has been converted into a compact 24m2 home, with a glazed front door that brings natural light in. Stairs lead up to a mezzanine bedroom with a double bed, framed by a second arch in the old Sicilian style. Ornate ironwork of a kind usually found above grand palazzo doorways has been repurposed as a window through this archway, keeping the sleeping area secure while still letting air flow freely. Downstairs, peach-coloured walls and a simple kitchen with gas hobs, a fridge and a washing machine complete a practical, good-looking interior. There are even two small bathrooms, one on each level. Five Minutes from Everything Step outside and the sea is barely 150 metres away, with the village's newly relandscaped seafront park, Piano Stenditore, just two minutes on foot and a sandy beach close by. The harbour's fish stalls, a handful of restaurants and a local bakery cover daily life, and parking is easier to come by here than in most Sicilian harbour villages. A little further along the coast, the old fishing hamlet of Sant'Elia has a pretty cove of its own, while the archaeological park of Solunto and the nature reserve of Monte Catalfano rise above the village. The Baroque town of Bagheria is a short drive inland, the train station is about ten minutes on foot, and from there Palermo is half an hour away and the airport about 45 minutes by car. A Canvas to Make Your Own Priced to reflect its size and its potential, Casa Nido is one of the most affordable ways to gain a foothold in the Sicilian property market, without any need to renovate or invest further. We see potential in simplifying the layout by removing one of the two bathrooms, and the downstairs could use some decorative touches. It is, however, ready for immediate use.

The Perfect Spot for a Sea-view Infinity Pool Only minor cosmetic work is needed, and a gently sloping garden with a sea view leaves scope for an infinity pool, alongside the option of upgraded heating and solar power. Split living, a family base or a partial rental income are all realistic here, on a stretch of coast where fully renovated houses tend to command notably higher prices.

In one of the most authentic areas of the hinterland between Campania and Basilicata, in a strategic position between Matera and the coast of Maratea, this land of approximately 7 hectares (70,000 m2) extends, located in the municipality of Paterno, approximately 630 metres above sea level. The setting is typical of the inland hills of the southern Apennines, where the landscape still retains a genuine and uncontaminated character. The gentle undulations of the land alternate with more open and panoramic areas, immersed in the natural greenery of the hilly scrub, providing a constant sensation of space, silence, and continuity with the surrounding environment. The landscape changes with each season: in spring and summer it lights up with intense green hues and full light, while in the winter months, colder especially between January and February, it takes on a more intimate and evocative atmosphere. The land extends over a single, large area, covering approximately 70,000 m2 in total, a feature that makes it particularly rare in the area. The conformation of the lot offers a wide range of possibilities for use and enhancement: from traditional agricultural activities to larger projects linked to nature, rural tourism or landscape redevelopment interventions, always in full respect of the environmental context. Another valuable feature is the presence of natural water sources that flow year-round within the property, an increasingly rare feature and particularly appreciated both for agricultural uses and for projects related to the naturalistic enhancement of the land. The location is another strong point: the land guarantees privacy and total immersion in nature, yet is just a short distance from the town of Paterno and the main services in the area. The proximity to connections to Matera and the Tyrrhenian coast of Maratea adds further value in terms of accessibility and potential. A significant extension, covering approximately 7 hectares (70,000 m2), it represents an ideal solution for those seeking large spaces, authentic nature, and the possibility of developing a project in a still unspoiled and undeveloped context.

Casetta Chiara - Sant' Agata Di Militello Looking out towards the Aeolian Islands from a quiet hillside lane, Casetta Chiara is a stone cottage above Sant'Agata di Militello, on Sicily's northern Nebrodi coast. A View that Rewards the Climb At close to 480 metres above sea level and under three kilometres from the coast, the cottage looks north over the Tyrrhenian Sea towards the Aeolian Islands, sharp and clear on the brightest days and a fixture of the view all year round. Around the house there is little but country lanes, light woodland and open meadow, an easy place to feel properly removed from the crowds. A Practical One-Bedroom Retreat A driveway climbs from the lane to a terraced front garden, where a traditional oven is built into the cottage's stone wall, ready to be brought back to life as a wood-fired barbecue or replaced with a small outdoor kitchen. Inside, the larger room has a dual aspect and will fill with light once the west-facing window is unshuttered, while the smaller room next door opens straight onto the garden, sea view included. A hidden door in the living room leads through to a bathroom space, and the exposed timber beams overhead are worth keeping on show. Renovate on a Modest Budget The solid stone walls keep the rooms naturally cool in summer and cosy in winter. The roof has recently been redone, but kept on show, perfectly in keeping with the rustic feel of the property. Electrics, plumbing and drainage will be the three biggest challenges to address, with the site not currently connected to the municipal main. However, a pipe passes nearby, so connecting to it will not be a complicated task. A septic tank will be needed, too, but we suggest a realistic budget to turn this into a charming and fully habitable retreat would only be around €40,000. Easy Reach, Far From the Crowds Sant'Agata di Militello, with its shops, cafes and services, is a short way downhill. Cefalù is under an hour's drive away, and Messina and Milazzo, both within around 80 minutes, offer ferries to the mainland and boats out to the Aeolian Islands themselves. Catania and Palermo airports are roughly equidistant, and Mount Etna begins to rise just 30 kilometres to the south.

Villa Marco - Cefalù Set on a hillside that rises steeply from the Tyrrhenian shore, Villa Marco is a traditional stone villa just ten minutes from the beach and old town of Cefalù. It's completely detached from the summer crowds, while the iconic seafront stands just ten minutes away. Pool, Pergola and Panorama Positioned 350 metres above sea level and under a kilometre inland, Villa Marco enjoys stunning views and has been designed to take full advantage of them. Many of its best spaces are outdoors, including the large panoramic terrace, partly shaded by a bamboo pergola and paved in traditional Sicilian terracotta. An above-ground pool on a raised wooden deck is equally spectacular, with both areas orientated towards the turquoise expanse of Tyrrhenian Sea below. The view takes in the famous Rocca of Cefalù and, on clear days, the silhouettes of the volcanic Aeolian Islands, fifty miles out to sea. Everything is framed by a spacious 3,600m2 of beautiful natural grounds. Deceptively Modern in Traditional Stone Although the villa actually dates back only to the 1990s, its architecture and choice of materials are deeply rooted in the traditions of the region. Exposed wooden beams, natural stone walls, hand-painted traditional tiles in the masonry kitchen and a large fireplace in the living room give the interior a character that takes decades to acquire naturally. An adjacent stone outbuilding adds an outdoor kitchen with a wood-fired oven, a utility room and overflow sleeping space. Cefalù, Ten Minutes Downhill Cefalù draws visitors from across northern Europe throughout an extended summer season, and its pull only grows in autumn and spring when the crowds have gone but the weather remains beautiful. For a property of this character, with a pool and Tyrrhenian views, demand is consistent and the location is one that rarely needs explaining to prospective guests. Villa Marco is offered for sale fully furnished and all paperwork in order, making the path from purchase to occupancy or rental use a fabulously short one. There is also room to invest and add sleeping capacity. Although currently there is only one bedroom, we have identified two cost-effective routes to adding a second on a modest budget. For more on this and an extended insight into everything Villa Marco has to offer, take a look at the full listing on our site.

Appartamento Filippo II - Marina di Caronia A ground-floor flat with two terraces and two bedrooms, Appartamento Filippo II is a fully furnished and immediately liveable apartment in the quiet seafront town of Marina di Caronia, on Sicily’s northern Tyrrhenian coast. TWO TERRACES, TWO WAYS TO ENJOY THE OUTDOORS The sea-view terrace at the front of the property faces east across the bay and is ideal for sunbathing and breakfast in the morning light. A long corridor connects it to a second terrace that opens directly from the kitchen, a more sheltered spot suited to outdoor lunches and evenings outside. The interior covers around 55m2 net, arranged as a kitchen-diner of 17m2, a twin bedroom, a 16m2 master double with a view onto the courtyard, a hallway and a bathroom with a modern cubicle shower. The washing machine is already plumbed in. Both entrances are from Via Vespucci. SOLD FURNISHED AND READY FOR IMMEDIATE USE Appartamento Filippo II is sold fully furnished and fitted with double-glazed PVC windows, air conditioning in every room, a 1,000-litre water cistern and a gas boiler for hot water. Nothing needs to be budgeted beyond the purchase price. The apartment does not form part of the building’s condominium arrangement, which means no service charges and a straightforward ownership structure. A QUIET CORNER OF SICILY’S NORTHERN COAST Marina di Caronia is at the foot of the Nebrodi mountains, with a beach fifty metres along the road and a train station five minutes on foot. Sant’Agata di Militello is around twenty minutes by car for supermarket shopping and hospital services. Palermo’s airport, the nearest international gateway, is under ninety minutes’ drive. For a beachfront apartment in north Sicily that is furnished, complete and ready to use, Appartamento Filippo II is a strong proposition.

Villa Alessandro - Altavilla Milicia Renovated from top to bottom and ready to move in, Villa Alessandro is a three-bedroom sea-view property in Altavilla Milicia, steps from Sicily’s northern coast. THREE FLOORS, THREE SEA VIEWS The villa rises over three levels, each with its own outdoor space. On the ground floor, a 16m2 covered veranda looks out to sea and connects to an open-plan living space of more than 35m2. A tiled parking area for two cars and an ornamental garden path complete the ground-level approach. The first floor holds the master bedroom with its own 16m2 terrace, a second bedroom that opens onto a private rear garden planted with olive, orange and fig trees, and a bathroom with a sea view. On the top floor, a third bedroom with en-suite opens onto the largest of the three terraces, with a 180-degree panorama. READY TO MOVE IN, OR READY TO LET A recent comprehensive renovation has left the property in excellent order, with certified electrics and plumbing, double-glazed windows, updated bathrooms and four heat pumps across the three floors. The valid habitability certificate is in place. For buyers with rental income in mind, this area of the northern coast sees strong summer demand from international visitors. A fully documented three-bedroom sea-view property with multiple terraces and a walk-to-the-beach location is well placed to perform. WELL CONNECTED TO PALERMO AND BEYOND Altavilla Milicia’s shops and services are under 5km away. The local train station brings central Palermo under 20 minutes by rail, and the international airport is roughly 45 minutes by car. Bagheria and the Capo Zafferano coast are under 15 minutes in the other direction. At this price, a fully renovated property in this position on Sicily’s northern coast offers compelling value.
