With a fabulously convenient location and a recent renovation, Casa Antonella is a perfect pick for a buyer who wants a medium-sized holiday home they can use or rent out with complete convenience.

A PERFECT POSITION FOR FLYING VISITS
The little villa lies thirty kilometres west of Palermo, with the city's busy airport only half an hour away by car. In the other direction is the great West Sicilian city of Trapani, with the ferry port that connects you to the sensational Egadi Islands and a growing international airport of its own.

As well as being able to come and go with ease, then, you'll also be right around the corner from some of Sicily's most beautiful and intriguing landmarks. Besides those two cities you can also reach Marsala, Castelvetrano and Medieval Erice in under an hour, and the idyllic beaches of the Zingaro nature reserve are just across the bay. Not that you even need to travel that far to find a beautiful bathing spot – the closest sandy beach is only a kilometre from your front door.

RENOVATED AND READY TO USE
The home has recently been re-done, both indoors and out. Only the front door and windows are somewhat in need of an upgrade. Everything else is smart and modern, especially the replastered fascias and newly-installed kitchen.

As well as this kitchen you'll find a pair of double bedrooms with southern aspect, a bright living room that overlooks the garden, a spacious bathroom with a tub and two ample storerooms. Outdoors the gardens have some nice medium-sized trees including olives and an orange, and an outdoor shower. There is off-street parking for a couple of vehicles.

CREATE THE PERFECT ROOF TERRACE
If you can find the capital, we think Casa Antonella has the potential for one final adjustment that would create a fabulous family space and send its rental or resale value through the roof (pun somewhat intended). The current terrace is a narrow strip that hugs the line of the supporting walls on two sides. It gives you a sea view to the north and you could put a narrow table up here or use it for drying clothes, but it's not nearly maximising the potential of the roof.

If you can find the funds to flatten the sloping surface and create a walkable terrace that covers the whole area of the villa, you would really be unlocking the potential of the property. This huge elevated expanse would give you a great panorama of the Gulf of Castellammare, and all the space you needed to relax, eat outdoors and soak up the sun. You could even put a little outdoor kitchen up here and it would be unbeatable.
