Sicily, Palermo, Casteldaccia, Italy

Ref. App. Gregorio - Casteldaccia - Perched 65 metres above the Tyrrhenian Sea on a hilltop plot in Casteldaccia, Appartamento Gregorio is a two-bedroom apartment with views across the Gulf of Termini Imerese from both bedrooms and some lovely design touches that make it feel instantly homely.



A QUIET GATED PLOT WITH DIRECT ACCESS FROM THE CARPORT

The apartment forms part of a low-rise condominium, although it offers the privacy of an independent home. A private entrance leads straight in from a shaded front porch, screened from the road by trees and shrubs, and a carport is within a few steps of the front door. The property is part of a small block of flats with shared gardens and use of an automatic gate from the street. Other amenities include a huge water reserve from an communal reservoir.



SPACIOUS INTERIORS WITH QUALITY FINISHES

The home has two large bedrooms, each with parquet flooring and its own balcony, and a striking formal living room with a fine, expertly laid parquet floor. There is also a separate dining room large enough for eight, a built-in Sicilian kitchen with tiled work surfaces, a separate laundry area and a large family bathroom with a window.

Decorative ceiling friezes, panels of coloured internal glass and a careful choice of tile work add character throughout, in a way that suggests an owner who has cared deeply about the small details.



A SMART MOVE ON THE COAST EAST OF PALERMO

Appartamento Gregorio sits at the top of a hillside overlooking the sea, with the centre of Casteldaccia a short walk or drive away. In the other direction, down the hill, some popular beach clubs and public coves are easily accessible, as is the historic Duca di Salaparuta winery.

The local train station is around ten minutes’ walk and brings you into central Palermo in about 25 minutes. The international airport is less than an hour by car, and Cefalù under an hour up the coast in the other direction.


A DURABLE FAMILY HOME OR A HIGH-POTENTIAL INVESTMENT

The home is ready to occupy as it stands, with the vendor committing to refurbish the exterior balconies before completion. It has everything you need for a full time relocation to the Sicilian sun, including step-free access that makes it perfect as a retirement property.

On the other hand, the spacious layout could support a division into two completely self-contained one-bedroom apartments of nearly 100m2 apiece, each with its own sea-view balcony and fully independent entrance. Whether you want a home to use yourself, a pair to resell or rent out or even one of each, this is a beauty and offers great value at the asking price.
