Property Description

Real Estate in Pollina

Casa Castello is a town house dating back to the turn of the twentieth century. For decades it was home to the local police department, but it is now on the market for private occupancy.

The rooms are very spacious with a square hallway on the ground floor opening into a pair of reception rooms. Moving upstairs there are a pair of rooms, each with a balcony, and a kitchen. On the second floor is another pair of rooms – their balconies offering beautiful views . A bathroom overlooks the dome of the nearby church. Another kitchen contains an antique wood burning stove, and has another balcony.

The ample windows ensure the house is always light and airy, with a welcoming atmosphere.

Furnishings

The house is in need of a full renovation. If your intention in looking for property in Sicily is to make an investment, this is a wonderful opportunity to buy affordable real estate and develop it with the assistance of a long-established local partner. We are very familiar with the area and would be able to help put you in touch with a range of local architects, laborers and craftspeople, and can also offer comprehensive assistance in obtaining the relevant permits and approvals.

Original ceramic floor tiles and wooden doors add to the authentic, traditional charm of the structure.

Investment opportunities

Pollina’s location, just 8 km from the UNESCO World Heritage site of Cefalù and within easy reach of the international airport in Palermo makes this an incredible opportunity to invest in Sicily.  This is a fantastic example of how it pays to look beyond the splashy ‘1 Euro houses in Sicily‘  promotions and invest in an area with real authenticity.

With our local connections and good relations with the municipality we could guarantee a smooth path through the red tape and permits needed to renovate the property.  If you are planning to relocate to the area, the government of the island offer generous tax breaks to people renovating houses here and becoming residents. If the demands of your life won’t let you be here in person, we would be delighted to help you manage your new property in Sicily from the ground. You can see our full list of services here.
