Description
WATER AND FIRE
Nearly 700m above sea level, the detached villa is just seven kilometres inland, meaning that it enjoys an unobstructed view of the Ionian Sea over the resort town of Taormina. On a clear day you can even see the Italian mainland, 50km away across the Straits of Messina. The front garden is a perfectly manicured spot from which to enjoy this view
The back garden, by contrast, is wild and a little rugged. Planted with 30 mature oak trees, it seems almost fantastic on a cloudy day. Beyond it, the natural park of Mount Etna begins almost immediately, meaning that at night you will have an unmatched view of the eruptions and lava flows.
AIR AND EARTH
The mountain air is invigorating, and the only sounds you'll hear in this remote location are the birds and the rustle of the tall trees of your front garden in the sea breeze. The villa is an historic old stone structure, with the thick walls of the original construction on full display. They're hewn from a dark, local stone that once came from the volcano itself.
The property has been completely renovated in the past two years, with a new roof, a fabulous outdoor kitchen and a total overhaul of the open-plan, barn-style interior. You'll love the brightness that comes in through the large windows, especially in the morning when the early sun shines straight into this east-facing home.
SOLD FULLY FURNISHED, IN PERFECT CONDITION
Aside from the open plan living space, with areas for cooking, relaxing and eating, there is a cosy double bedroom with ample cupboard space, and a home office built up on a mezzanine floor. The bathroom is compact but stylish, with a cubicle shower, and a laundry room has been built in a little outbuilding behind the property.
Villa Marina is sold as seen, with all fixtures and fittings included for the most convenient possible move to Sicily. Don't miss the chance to find out more about this magical home and its unique 360° views.
