Bed and Breakfast (B&B)

In the most suggestive section of the southeastern coast of Sicily, at the gates of Ispica, charming waterfront villa for sale, immersed in a unique natural context, where the waters of the Mediterranean Sea blend with those of the Ionian Sea. The property, consisting of multiple independent stylishly renovated buildings, expresses a sober and contemporary elegance, perfectly integrated into a bright and relaxed Mediterranean atmosphere.

The complex develops over a total internal area of approximately 200 m² and is organized into a main house and two guesthouses, harmoniously distributed within the garden and connected by external paths.

The main villa (90 m² – 968 ft²), located closer to the sea, represents the centerpiece of convivial life: here is a cozy living room, a kitchen with a dining area characterized by a large fully openable glass window facing outside, and a double bedroom with en suite bathroom, direct access to the outdoor spaces, and a private terrace with sea view.

This property represents a unique opportunity to own a fully integrated vineyard estate that unites luxury living, architectural elegance, and high-quality wine production. It is equally suited as a private residence, a boutique winery, or a hospitality venture in one of Italy’s most desirable wine regions.

VINEYARDS AND WINERY

In a very panoramic and quiet location in the Casentino mountains, not far from Talla, rural hamlet to be restored with 112.2 hectares of land for sale. The buildings are located on a rocky outcrop at the confluence of two streams, and the original nucleus of the settlement most likely dates back to the 7th century, when the small church was built: the area was part of the Byzantine possessions, a last offshoot of the so-called “Byzantine corridor” that connected Ravenna to Rome, and the Greek influence on the church is evident. The road leading up to the property is part of that connecting artery that once united the Cassia Vetus (nowadays the Setteponti Road) and the Flaminia Minor (then called Via Romea once it enters Emilia-Romagna). From the property, Mount Penna, on which stands the Franciscan hermitage of La Verna, can be seen in the distance.

The buildings (more than 2,200 m² in total) were later added over the centuries and eventually encompassed what was most likely a small castle placed to defend the road between Casentino and Valdarno. The structure of the hamlet is oriented east-to-west so as to shelter the buildings from the cold winds from the north and denotes great attention to detail.

Importantly, the hamlet was inhabited until relatively recently: sixty people still lived there in the 1970s. One of the features that make the property very interesting is the presence of a virtually endless supply of water thanks to a very rich natural spring that has always bubbled up in the upper part of the estate.

The estate stretches for a total of 112.2 hectares (277.2 acres): of these, most are covered by the typical Casentino woods (80.0 ha that also include a chestnut grove) while the remaining area is devoted to arable land (19.8 ha) and pastures (11.7 ha). The presence of a large amount of water, both from the spring and from the two streams, opens the way for multiple possibilities of use of the farm.

On the hills at the border between Umbria and Lazio, in a quiet and panoramic location less than an hour from Rome, 69.8-hectare estate is for sale.
