This project, which was begun in 2008 and is still in need of completion, presents the perfect opportunity for the new owner to design the internal layout and put their own stamp on the property. External doors, shutters and windows are being fitted by the current owner and internal and external stairs are planned. The property has humidity venting under the building. It has a wooden roof. Electricity, water and telephone are available in the lane. A butane gas tank is being installed in the grounds for cooking and heating. Solar panels could be used successfully here.
The land around the farmhouse is currently planted with vines, olives, various fruit trees and chestnut and walnut trees.
Planning permission was originally obtained for this property for agricultural use. It would be ideal as a B&B or as an agriturismo so planning permission would need to be changed for commercial use but this shouldn’t be a problem.
It is likely to need €60.000 - €70.000 to complete the building work and €120.000 in total for fittings and landscaping.
The plot is 700 meters above sea level which offers plenty of fresh air even in the heat of the summer. It is close to Mount Moncuso which is a large wooded area offering walks and picnic areas. Views from the property are to the Bay of St Euphemia and Etna on a clear day.
