2 Bed House for sale
Campofelice di Roccella, Palermo, Sicily, Italy
Full Description
More than just a large family house which needs some work but offers incredible potential, Tenuta Barbera is a working agricultural business, growing a huge crop of Sicily's most iconic produce
40,0002 LEMON FARM, FULLY OPERATIONAL AND WELL-MAINTAINED
The huge estate has been planted with around five thousand White Zagara lemon trees, beautifully maintained and generating three harvests a year. There is a comprehensive sprinkler irrigation system, and the roads that criss-cross the orchard are all paved.
On a good year for lemon prices, the value of the annual crop can approach €90,000, and even in a typical market it will be well over half that. As the property is sold including a 55m2 barn, a working Goldini tractor and all of the other equipment necessary to manage the agricultural operation this is very much an investment opportunity as much as a real estate one. Or you could take the plunge, move to Sicily and know that you're also guaranteeing your own job opportunity.
TWO-STOREY FARMHOUSE WITH HUGE POTENTIAL
The home offers over 200m2 of indoor space, split into two separate apartments with an external staircase leading up to the first floor. At present this is unfinished, with the buyer needing to invest around €60,000, we believe, in order to divide the spaces, plaster, add a floor and decorate. When that's finished, however, the villa could be a huge family home that might have as many as five bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The lower apartment alone, which is finished and habitable, if not in the most modern state of decoration, has two or three bedrooms and a bathroom with shower. The large living room contains a fully-fitted kitchen and there is also a box room which could be a home office. The entire villa has wonderful views of the lemon groves outside.
SEA VIEWS AND A STELLAR SEAFRONT LICATION
The house is just 1500m from the beach of Campofelice, an idyllic sandy strip which runs for twenty kilometres from Termini Imerese to Mazzaforno. You can have the sand between your toes in just a five minute drive. Only a little trip along the coast is the magical town of Cefalù, and Palermo is just 45 minutes to the west.
The building is set 100m above sea level, which means that you can enjoy an uninterrupted view of the sparkling turquoise water from your veranda, and an even better one from the first floor balcony. This is one of the most scenic properties we've ever been able to offer.
