The apartment occupies the entire first floor of a colourful, well-maintained building. Its practical layout and abundance of natural light create an immediate sense of space. The entrance opens directly into the living room, which has access to the balcony. Next to it is the large kitchen-diner, offering ample room for a fully equipped kitchen, a family dining table and an additional informal seating area.

The sleeping area includes a spacious principal bedroom and a second room that can be used as a guest bedroom, children’s room or home office. There is also a bathroom with a shower enclosure and small bathtub, a utility room and a practical storage cupboard.

One of the apartment’s most attractive features is the long balcony wrapping around the southern and western sides of the building. It can be accessed directly from the living room, kitchen and principal bedroom, creating a natural extension of the interior. It is an inviting place for breakfast in the sunshine, outdoor dining or a quiet evening accompanied by the sea breeze. Views extend towards the green surrounding hills, local architecture and the wide Sicilian sky.

The apartment retains marble-tiled floors, white walls, wooden internal doors and functional aluminium window frames. It is connected to a shared 30,000-litre water cistern serving the four apartments in the building. The property is structurally sound and ready to use, while repainting, installing a modern kitchen and potentially upgrading the windows would give it a more contemporary finish.

Aspra has preserved the genuine character of a Sicilian fishing village, with small beaches, restaurants, bakeries, shops, pharmacies and everyday services within easy reach. Nearby destinations include the turquoise coves of Sant’Elia, the archaeological site of Solunto and the fishing harbour of Porticello, known for its daily market and seafood restaurants.

With two bedrooms, generous interiors and proximity to the coast, the apartment would make a comfortable second home for a couple or family. As Aspra remains active throughout the year and benefits from convenient connections to Bagheria and Palermo, the property also offers potential for both holiday and long-term rentals.
