Property Description

Real Estate in Termini Imerese

This plot is a well-kept piece of agricultural land, planted with olive trees which has permission for development with a house of up to 80m2 and an outbuilding (for instance, a garage, stable, storeroom etc.) – which could later become a living space. The plot is perched about 160-170m above sea level, enough to attract a cool breeze in summer and afford marvellous sea views, but still close enough to the coast to feel like a ‘seaside’ home.

Rosalia has been in the same family for generations, and the 85-year-old couple cultivated all the trees themselves. Their family now live in the far north of the country and so, with heavy heart, they are looking for a buyer.  The price is below average for this kind of a development plot with sea view in Sicily. Snap it up now and start planning your dream Sicilian home!

Terrain

The rectangular, 8000m2 plot has a flat area ideal for the house, and a gently sloping hill which is planted with 110 olive trees. The uppermost part of the hill is pure pasture. In the dividing central area there are numerous fruit and nut trees, including the citrus varieties for which Sicily is famed the world over.

The property is fenced, although this needs some repair. There is already a driveway in place. As is a water connection, but not yet electricity. The nearest pylon is 600m away.

Surroundings

What we love most about this property is the great view. You don’t just get the sea, but also, on the southern side, the slopes of the Madonie. All year round this beautiful national park is home to a wide variety of rare and endangered flora and fauna, and in the winter the peaks are above the snow line.

Classical buffs will love that nearby is a Roman excavation site and a Greek temple, and for those in search of an outdoor spa experience, the town of Termini Imerese boasts hot springs.

The access road is currently unpaved, and about 3.5 km. This, however, brings you to a main provincial road, from which you can reach the motorway in two minutes. The international airport at Palermo is within an hour’s drive.

A range of gorgeous sandy beaches are close, the much-loved seaside town of Cefalù just 20 minutes by car.

Potential

With right to develop already ensured, you can start to dream of your perfect Sicilian home straight away. We could picture a nice villa with perhaps three bedrooms, a couple of bathrooms and a large open kitchen-living room. A swimming pool? Why not. We can provide you with a copy of the Certificato Destinazione Urbanistica, in which the local council in Termini Imerese guarantees the right to build a house of this size.

In a good year the olive trees will yield 300 litres of good quality olive oil, enough to support a small business venture.

From your opening enquiries to the exchange of contracts, design and eventual build of your dream Mediterranean home on this charming development plot with sea view in Sicily – Property in Sicily is here to help.
