In the characteristic hamlet of Itala Superiore, adjacent to the ancient Arab-Norman Abbey of SS Peter and Paul, this estate is set in a context of great charm thanks to its hilly position and short distance from the sea.
The property, falling within a partially flat area and accessible by a private driveway, extends over more than 6 hectares and includes a late 19th century farmhouse with an ancient millstone.
The harmoniously sloping land, mostly cultivated with citrus fruits, olive trees, centuries-old pines and other luxuriant vegetation - until a few years ago also vineyards - is served by a system of channelling irrigation water from the spring and several collection basins that ensure total independence from this point of view.
Particularly evocative is the path, flanked by a fine colonnade, that runs along the garden and leads to the belvedere: a paved area with stone seats from which to enjoy a splendid view of the sea and the hills.
The ground floor of the farmhouse houses the old millstone and two large rooms used as cellars and storage space, currently in an unfinished state. The first floor, measuring approximately 270 square metres and characterised by its high frescoed ceilings, houses the residential part with a reception area consisting of an entrance hall, waiting room, study, large living room, kitchen, bathroom and pantry, and a sleeping area with four bedrooms plus bathrooms, as well as a large terrace on the level.
The property has not been lived in for several years and is in need of total renovation - including fixtures, electrical and plumbing.
It is connected to the town's water and sewerage system.
Adjacent to the building is a collaborating unit of approximately 100 sq m, a volume that can easily be used to extend the surface area of the farmhouse on two levels.
It is possible to build a beautiful swimming pool as there are no Superintendence restrictions.
Privacy, tranquillity and the charm of the place are the elements that characterise this beautiful property located in the vicinity of the town and the many places of tourist interest along the Ionian coast, such as Itala Marina, a 5-minute drive away, Alì Terme, S. Teresa di Riva, and other small towns up to the splendid Taormina, which is just over 30 km away.
The ideal solution for those seeking a charming residence with an attached farm, it undoubtedly offers good potential for tourist accommodation development.
