Description

In the authentic heart of Pantelleria, just a few steps from the port of Scauri and immersed in the tranquility of one of the island’s most promising areas, an enchanting dammuso of about 145 sqm is offered for sale, with private land of about 5,000 sqm. The property, a typical expression of Pantellerian architecture, is laid out on a single level and offers bright rooms harmoniously connected to one another. The living area consists of a kitchen, living room and dining room—three distinct yet interconnecting spaces—each with direct access from the outside, a feature that enhances the home’s livability and its continuous relationship with outdoor areas. The sleeping area includes two bedrooms and an alcove. The latter, a typical niche in dammuso architecture, can be used as an additional sleeping area for guests, as an intimate reading corner, or as an evocative relaxation space. Thanks to the layout of the rooms and the various openings to the outside, the interior arrangement can also be easily reorganized to suit one’s needs, allowing, for example, the creation of an additional bedroom or a private study, ideal as well for those who wish to work remotely. Outside, a large terrace covered with reed screening and enhanced by wooden pillars offers an ideal setting for outdoor lunches and convivial moments, with a pleasant partial view of the sea and the surrounding landscape. The approximately 5,000 sqm of land ensures privacy, ample space, and interesting opportunities to enhance the property. Within the area there is a ruined stable, duly registered in the land registry, which—together with the large size of the land—offers the possibility of building a new or second structure. Supporting this potential, a building permit is already in place and currently needs renewal; its renewal will be handled and paid for by the selling party, representing an important added value for any future development. Further development opportunities also include the possibility of creating a garage or a tool storage room, potentially located between the two real estate units. There is also the option to build a swimming pool, an element that would further enhance the setting and quality of life within the property. The property is completed by an evocative historic cistern for water collection, built “in the Roman style,” with a capacity of about 80 cubic meters. Water supply can be ensured through rainwater collection, water tankers, or with the possibility of connection to the local desalination plant, which operates periodically. At present, use is mainly based on rainwater collection. The location is particularly attractive: a short distance from the port of Scauri and the main services, in an area of the island that is increasingly appreciated and growing. An authentic and charming solution, ideal both as a private residence and as an investment in one of the Mediterranean’s most exclusive destinations.

Location: Pantelleria, Sicily

Recognized as the “Black Pearl of the Mediterranean,” Pantelleria is a Sicilian island located in the heart of the Strait of Sicily. Its strategic position and the extraordinary richness of its land have shaped its history: a crossroads of Mediterranean peoples and cultures, the island preserves an immense heritage of biodiversity and numerous archaeological remains that recount its millennia-old past. Among the island’s most authentic villages is Scauri, a small locality on the south-western coast overlooking a striking natural inlet. An ancient fishing village, it still retains a simple, genuine atmosphere of dammusi built in lava stone, white houses, and small harbors where life flows at a slow pace. From here you can admire some of the island’s most spectacular sunsets and easily reach some of the coast’s most fascinating coves. From an architectural standpoint, Pantelleria is famous for its dammusi, distinctive dwellings made with thick lava-stone walls and dome-shaped roofs whitewashed with lime. Outside the built-up areas they are the only traditional building type and today they are the most authentic and exclusive option for staying on the island. Among the wonders of Pantelleria stand out: - Lake Specchio di Venere (Mirror of Venus), so called because, according to legend, the goddess Venus looked at her reflection there before meeting Bacchus. It is a natural lake occupying the crater of an ancient volcano, renowned for its thermal muds and for the rich flora and fauna surrounding it. - Pantelleria Castle, an imposing medieval lava-stone structure used as a prison until 1975 and now a museum that houses important archaeological finds from the island, including the famous Imperial Heads. - Balata dei Turchi, one of the island’s most spectacular bays, characterized by crystal-clear seabeds and a rocky cliff with intense colors; according to tradition, it was once a landing place used by pirates. With its wild, evocative landscapes, open-air thermal springs, crystal-clear sea, constant wind, and authentic cuisine, Pantelleria is the ideal destination for those who want to enjoy an experience of nature, history, and silence in the heart of the Mediterranean.
