Villa Macaluso - Collesano

FABULOUS THREE-BEDROOM FAMILY VILLA WITH SWIMMING POOL IN SICILY'S MADONIE PARK A large, three-bedroom family villa on the lower slopes of the Madonie Natural Park, Villa Macaluso offers over 277m2 of internal space, plus terraces, immaculate gardens and a swimming pool. The 2800m2 plot has been cultivated, planted with fruit trees, a small olive grove and all of the typical Sicilian foliage that creates such an unmistakeable array of scents and colours. THREE BEDROOMS, AND SPACE TO SLEEP EIGHT WITH EASE The villa itself is divided into two floors, with the bedrooms downstairs at garden level, off a huge open-plan family room. There are a pair of bathrooms, each with showers and one with a claw footed bath. Upstairs the living room is bright and fresh in the summer, opening onto one of the villa's many sunny terraces – but impressively cosy in the short Sicilian winter, thanks to the beautiful open fire at one end. The kitchen is spacious and practical, and the seller is prepared to include all fittings and contents in the eventual sale price. This includes an oven, gas hob, fridge-freezer and dishwasher. FABULOUS VARIETY OF OUTDOOR SPACES The gardens are magnificent. Particular care and attention has been paid to the lush Bermuda grass lawn, defying the warm dry climate to thrive thanks to irrigation from a private well. The centerpiece of this outdoor space, though, is the gloriously inviting swimming pool, covered by a practical retractable roof to keep it in perfect condition. EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY With the entire picture framed by a thoughtfully cultivated array of cacti, trees and flowers, Villa Macaluso is an indulgent and luxurious haven in which to escape from the world and soak up the sunshine – at a price that belies its size, facilities and quality of work.
