Close to the port and marina area of Cefalu is a charming line of stone Terraced Houses which were once home to the local Fisherman but now offer a number of high quality living spaces which vary in size and layout.
Having been lovingly restored, by local craftsmen using local materials, they now represent some of the desirable residential accommodation is Cefalu. At street level, the terrace now houses a high quality restaurant, bar and wine shop with the living accommodation being on the first and second floors. Behind each home is a private terrace area and garden which affords spectacular, uninterrupted, sea views – ideal for outside entertaining.
This particular home (the last one available) is situated on two floors and provides 70 square metres of living space, an outside terrace of approximately 15 square meters and more than 100 square metres of private garden. On entering the property it is evident that no expense has been spared in its restoration. Every space within the property has been put to optimum use and all fixtures and fittings are of the highest quality and the price includes a fully fitted, bespoke kitchen. Original stone walls provide a wonderful feature throughout the property and are in perfect sympathy with the contemporary, open plan design which offers day time living on the first floor and night time accommodation on the second. The architect has chosen to make this a single bedroom accommodation although the second floor is large enough to convert to into two separate sleeping areas if desired.
In addition, there is the possibility of acquiring a commercial outlet which is situated beneath the property at road level – offers in region of an additional £75,000.
For the sea lover, this is a truly fantastic setting. With large windows overlooking the sea, it is possible to watch the sunset from the living area before retiring upstairs where the sound of the waves will lull you to sleep.
Cefalu and the Madonie Park
Cefalu started as a simple fishing village perched between the sea and a steep, craggy limestone promontory. Thanks to a long sandy beach and a coastline considered to be one of the most beautiful on the island, Cefalu is now a thriving holiday destination. However the town has retained its medieval appearance and its glorious Romanesque cathedral still towers over the network of narrow streets lined with buildings featuring elaborate architectural decoration. The fishermen’s quarter, with its old houses clustered along the seafront, is a reminder of days gone by and is still in operation to this day.
Cefalu provides the gateway to the Madonie Park. Established in 1989, the area plays host to a wide variety of indigenous birds and animals including some 70 species of brightly coloured butterflies. Extending over some 98,000 areas, the park is densely wooded and provides endless scope for walkers, hikers and campers.
