Taormina City Centre
Taormina , Sicily, Italy
Status: Active

In the splendid Taormina, an elegant and exclusive location, symbol of tourism in Sicily, and visited every year by the international jet set, we find for sale, this extraordinary luxury property overlooking the sea.

Known since the 1950s and ’60s, decades when it was frequented by actors, famous artists, and heads of state who attended events and parties, Taormina is a protagonist of a blend of history, culture, and curious anecdotes intertwined with the wonderful natural landscapes and marine beauties of Sicily.

The villa, which over the years was frequented by prominent figures in the Italian cultural scene, belonged to a well-known artist – much appreciated at the time by figures such as Ungaretti and Pasolini – who chose it to live and work in a paradisiacal place, far from the chaos.

The property is built on the rock, directly overlooking the sea, in the most panoramic point of Taormina overlooking the entire bay, with a view ranging from the sea to the Greek Theater, up to the summit of Mount Etna. A harmonious exchange with nature and the sea is experienced year-round both from the outdoor spaces, the marvelous indoor environments, and the stunning terraces on various levels of the property.

The villa was built at the end of the 19th century, then underwent careful restoration and thorough enhancement in the last decade by a well-known entrepreneur from Taormina. The meticulous renovations have allowed the recovery of the historical parts, giving new life to this residence that extends for over 1,000 square meters on three levels, immersed in 1,000 square meters of park with terraces, swimming pool, and private parking. The villa can be accessed both through the driveway entrance from the circular road, leading to the private parking that accommodates up to four cars, and through the pedestrian entrance.

The main level, reached through the driveway access, opens with a magnificent entrance leading to the living area with a monumental antique fireplace and a large window overlooking the sea, which gives ample space and brightness to the living area. There’s also a study area, a spacious dining area with large vertical sliding windows, and a spacious kitchen, all spaces served by various panoramic terraces. On this floor, there are also two bathrooms and an additional study. A grand staircase, characterized by a glass covering, leads to both the upper and lower levels. The upper floor houses the spacious sleeping area with bathroom, a study, and additional terraces.

The lower level features two bedrooms with respective en-suite bathrooms, a second kitchen, an additional living area overlooking the sea and the property’s park.
