Aeolian terraces over Santa Marina di Salina

The property is situated in a privileged location just outside the historic centre of Santa Marina Salina, on Via Belvedere, in one of the most authentic and picturesque settings of the Aeolian archipelago. Here, the scents of the Mediterranean scrub, the colours of the lava stone and the white of the traditional architecture blend together to create an atmosphere of rare beauty and tranquillity. The villa is a characterful interpretation of the typical Aeolian house, deeply rooted in the surrounding landscape. The property is arranged around a cosy, panoramic courtyard, where the buildings interact harmoniously, creating a fascinating interplay of light, shadow and views of the landscape. The spaces have been designed to ensure independence and privacy, making the property particularly versatile and ideal for hospitality. At the entrance, there is a first unit comprising a living area with kitchen and a mezzanine bedroom; this is followed by a spacious kitchen with a traditional Aeolian oven, connected to a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. A third independent unit features an outdoor kitchen and a bedroom with a private bathroom, whilst on the upper floor there is a further bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. A distinctive feature of the property is the magnificent system of terraces and verandas that bring to life the traditional Aeolian ‘bagghiu’: spaces designed to fully enjoy the outdoors, enhanced by the typical ‘bisola’—tiled masonry seats—and the iconic ‘pulere’ that support the thatched roofs. The result is a property with authentic charm, offering an immersive experience of the Aeolian setting, combining privacy, tranquillity and breathtaking views.
