Scaletta Zanclea, Messina, Sicily, Italy

A residence immersed in the tranquility of the Sicilian countryside, surrounded by olive and citrus trees, with a captivating view over the Strait of Messina.

Located on a small promontory in Capo Scaletta, on the border between Messina and the charming coastal town of Scaletta Zanclea, the property enjoys a private and panoramic position where light, sea, and landscape become an integral part of everyday life.

The estate extends over 8,400 sqm of private land, approximately 3,000 sqm of which are flat and planted with olive and citrus groves.

Construction began in the late 1990s; in 2007, the ground floor and first floor were completed, while in 2015 some finishing works related to the service areas were finalized, although these spaces have not yet been inhabited. The semi-basement level, measuring approximately 260 sqm and still in shell condition, is partly intended as a garage and partly as service rooms. This level offers interesting possibilities for customization and expansion of the functional spaces.

The ground floor features a spacious double-aspect living room with provisions for a fireplace and an open-plan kitchen. The well-separated sleeping area includes four bedrooms and two bathrooms. All rooms open onto a large wraparound veranda and the rear garden.

The first-floor attic level hosts a bright living area with kitchenette and access to a panoramic sea-view terrace, three bedrooms, a large hallway suitable as a study, and two bathrooms. This floor offers a particularly welcoming atmosphere thanks to the wooden roof with exposed beams, as well as breathtaking views over the sea and surrounding landscape.

The municipality is also included among those eligible for favorable tax regimes designed for new international residents, making the property particularly attractive also from a tax optimization perspective.

A unique place where life flows peacefully among the scent of olive trees and the sea breeze, with magnificent views across the Strait between Messina and Reggio Calabria.
