The freshly constructed Residence Giardini Torre Conca is a private estate of 18 holiday homes just outside Cefalù, at the heart of Sicily’s north coast. With high quality builds, classic design and beautiful shared spaces, this is a luxurious and hassle-free way in which to purchase your very own place on the Mediterranean’s most welcoming island.

With a resident site manager on hand to help with everything from maintenance issues to local tips, you will be able to relax in total comfort, safe in the knowledge that everything you could need is directly on hand.
A single storey apartment, the Villa Belvedere is a three bedroom, two bathroom property with exclusive use of a private swimming pool (under construction in the second half of 2022).
Bathed in warm sunshine all year round, and with unbeatable sea views, this lovely Seafront villa in Cefalù is the escape you have always dreamed of, available whenever you can find time to visit. Whether you are planning to buy property in Sicily as an investment or a new home for retirement or relocation, this is an opportunity worthy of serious consideration for anyone looking at this price point.
The Property
The spacious, deep living room with sea view and patio. A corridor connects to the trio of bedrooms – two especially lovely ones have the same sea view and direct access to the chic paved terrace through French windows. The third has a garden view window. Completing the floor plan are two bathrooms, each of which has already been fitted with a simple white bathroom suite and a shower.
The windows are in smart white, offset in sturdy plastered walls, and the floors are flagstones. Air-conditioning units have already been installed in every room.
Outside a private garden contains a lawn framed by a few olive trees, cacti and other typical local greenery. A little passageway runs around the rear of the house. In the front, a lower terrace has been levelled and set aside for the private swimming pool, which has yet to be constructed. The list price for Villa Belvedere includes all the construction expenses for a standard pool of 8m x 4m – but buying early gives you the scope to set your own stamp on the design of this and the surrounding deck area.
There is ample parking space directly outside the villa, which has a total plot of 4,500m2.
Surroundings
The immaculate Giardini Torre Conca complex includes all the leisure amenities you could need for a stress-free escape to the sun. As well as your private pool, you will find a tennis court, football pitch and hiking trails which extend both up into the green hills and down to the idyllic Torre Conca beach.
This shingle-covered bay is protected from the brisk Tyrrhenian winds by a curve of cliff face, and the water is both shallow and warm. Crystal clarity is a given in this picturesque part of the Mediterranean. You will be able to swim as late as October or November – indeed, many visitors bathe year round, although the still-traditional locals may consider this a rather mystifying act of self-flagellation! The Giardini Torre Conca provides guaranteed beachfront parking for residents at this wonderful seaside spot – in addition to the space outside your property on the estate. It is just 500m downhill from the estate, and home to a fantastic new restaurant run by a decorated Belgian chef, Kobe Desremaults.
The location, between Cefalú and Pollina, is practically perfect. Blissfully distant from the busiest tourist thoroughfares, it nonetheless offers easy access to the picturesque hills of the Madonie Natural Park (where the hilltop medieval town of Pollina can be found, with superb views and a wonderful outdoor theatre) and to the beaches visible from your seafront villa. In Cefalù you’ll find cobbled streets and secluded little piazzas, dotted with adorable boutiques and colourful bars. Every few moments the warm sea breeze brings the scent of sumptuous home cooking or the fresh produce of the kitchens at some enticing eatery.
Visible out to sea on a clear day, the spectacular volcanic archipelago of the nearby Aeolian Islands makes a thrilling boat trip. In fact, you will need no more than a couple of hours in a car to reach any of Sicily’s myriad attractions, from the majestic Greek temples of Agrigento and the salt flats of Trapani, to the towering cauldron of Mount Etna in the east.
The nearest international airport can be reached in just over an hour by car or train. Palermo, the largest and most exciting of Sicily’s cities, offers direct flights to all major European destinations.
Potential
As a newly renovated property in a new residence, you will of course find no maintenance work to consider. You will need to install a fitted kitchen, and add your own furnishings and decoration, but our friendly multilingual team has years of experience in managing refurbishment projects, and we’d love to introduce you to trustworthy professionals in the area, from designers to traditional local furniture manufacturers.
When budgeting, please be aware that there is a condominium charge for all properties in the Giardini Torre Conca, to be paid monthly. This will be defined (on the basis of property size) at a later date – but we are here to answer your questions on this subject and to supply up-to-the-minute information on demand.
If you like the look of the Giardini Torre Conca, but are hunting for something a litle simpler, take a look at two sister properties in the same residence. Appartamento Platani is a larger ground floor apartment, while Bilocale Torre Conca is a one bedroom space with an enticing price tag.
