In beautiful Taormina, an elegant and exclusive resort that is a symbol of tourism in Sicily and visited every year by the international jet set, this extraordinary luxury property overlooking the sea is for sale.
Known since the 1950s and 1960s, years in which it was frequented by actors, famous artists and heads of state attending events and parties, Taormina is the protagonist of a succession of history, culture and curious anecdotes that are intertwined with Sicily's marvelous natural landscapes and marine beauty.
The villa, frequented over the years by prominent figures on the Italian cultural scene, belonged to a well-known artist, at the time highly regarded and linked to the likes of Ungaretti and Pasolini, who had chosen it so that he could live and work in a heavenly place, far from the chaos.
The property is built on the rock, facing directly onto the sea, in the most panoramic point of Taormina overlooking the entire bay, with a view that sweeps from the sea to the Greek Theater, to the summit of Mount Etna. A harmonious exchange with nature and the sea is experienced year-round both from the outdoor spaces and from the wonderful interiors and amazing terraces on the various levels of the property.
The villa was built in the late 1800s, only to undergo careful restoration and enhancement in the last decade by a well-known Taormina entrepreneur. The meticulous interventions have allowed the recovery of the historical parts, giving new life to this mansion that covers more than 1,000 square meters on three levels, immersed in 1,000 square meters of parkland with terraces, swimming pool and private parking. The villa is accessed either through the driveway entrance from the ring road, which leads into the private parking area that accommodates up to four cars, or through the pedestrian entrance.
The main level, located at the level of the driveway access, opens with an important entrance that leads to the living area with monumental period fireplace and large window overlooking the sea that gives ample breath and brightness to the living area. We then find the study area, large dining area with large vertical sliding windows and spacious kitchen, all spaces served by several panoramic terraces. Finally, on the floor there are two bathrooms and an additional study. A major staircase featuring glass roofing leads to both the upper and lower levels. The floor above houses the spacious sleeping area with services, study and additional terraces.
The lower level, on the other hand, features two bedrooms with respective en-suite bathrooms, second kitchen, additional living area overlooking the sea and the property park. An external staircase leads to the park embellished with century-old plants and Mediterranean essences, with terraces leading to the annex, which houses an additional apartment consisting of sleeping area, living area and kitchen.
Continuing toward the pool, we find an additional detached loft on two floors, featuring a large living area with fireplace, dining area, kitchen and services, and two bedrooms with bathroom on the upper floor.
The jewel in the crown of the luxury villa is the wonderful infinity pool with Jacuzzi that creates a continuity with the background sea and the breathtaking view.
