Description

Ref. Tenute La Rocca - Collesano - Three kilometres south of Collesano in the Madonie Natural Park, Tenuta La Rocca is a huge country estate with a guest house, agricultural buildings, a house to restore and a fully functional restaurant.


A WORKING RESTAURANT WITH OVERNIGHT ACCOMMODATION
In the past, Tenuta La Rocca was a popular out-of-town restaurant, with a pair of dining rooms capable of holding over eighty guests in a single service. It did good trade with locals and tourists alike, especially on festivals and feast days when it would provide set menus to large family groups, and had review scores over 4.5/5 on both Google and Tripadvisor. Everything you need to reopen the business is included in the asking price, including two fully equipped dining rooms, recently renovated bathrooms and a 40m2 working kitchen.

Built around a spacious courtyard, the restaurant building also features seven guest bedrooms, which give it enormous potential if well marketed as a venue for weddings or other events. Some investment will be needed on the renovation of this accommodation to make it the irresistible prospect it deserves to be, but if you're able to do this you could have a sensational and versatile venue on your hands.


ELEVEN HECTARES OF PEACEFUL LAND
The estate is a vast plot on the north-western side of one of the intermediate hills in the beautiful Madonie Natural Park. This gives you great views of the mountains above you and the sea below, visible on the horizon beyond the town of Campofelice di Roccella.

The estate is not currently farmed, but a pair of enormous barns give you more than enough room to keep livestock (one of these was previously a stable building) and store crops (the other was a hayloft). With over 27 acres of land at your disposal you won't be short of space, whatever type of activity you have in mind.


A RUINED COTTAGE TO RENOVATE
Towards the higher end of the estate is the ruin of a 100m2 house, which would be a perfect renovation project. It would eventually give you and your family the chance to live on-site with the comfort of being several hundred metres away from the restaurant and accommodation. A lot of work will be needed, but in the end your investment would be rewarded with a home built completely to your own specifications and some lovely sea views.

About Property in Sicily, Cefalu

PROPERTY IN SICILY is an international Real Estate Agency with family-run values.

Based in Palermo in Sicily, we work exclusively in this region and with international buyers. We speak six languages – including English, obviously – but our roots are firmly in our community here.

We have also been in your shoes. Half of our team arrived in Sicily as ex-pats, and we learnt through experience that when you buy a property overseas you need complete trust in the people you're dealing with. It's important not to have middle-men, to speak to someone who's seen the property you're buying with their own eyes. Every property in our portfolio has been selected by us, based on decades of industry experience and learning the needs of overseas buyers.

We are accredited members of the FIAIP (the Italian Federation of Estate Agents) and registered realtors at the Italian Chamber of Commerce. This makes us privileged to be able to represent both you and the local vendors. Doing so in a way that is impartial and honest is more than an aim for us – it's a founding principle, the reason we got into this business. We are also members of the ADDIOPIZZO anti-mafia organisation.

We are accredited by UK-based AIPP (Association of International Property Professionals) and by US-based NAR (National Association of Realtors).

Our pre-sale services include everything from property scouting and reports to representing clients who need a trusted local representative when dealing with other agencies. After you have completed we will be delighted to help you manage building projects and renovations, the logistics of moving to Sicily, running holiday lettings... even learning the language!

Property in Sicily is big enough to take on any project, but small enough to care. We can't wait to help make your Sicilian dream a reality.
