The ground-floor apartment features a sitting room overlooking the olive grove and sea, a separate dining room, a traditional masonry kitchen with dining space, and a laundry room. There are three bedrooms, including one with an en-suite bathroom, a second bathroom and a separate WC. A study provides space for work or visiting guests. Marble floors, hardwood doors and herringbone parquet give the interiors a refined, traditional character.

The first-floor apartment has its own entrance via an external staircase. A bright open-plan living, dining and kitchen area sits beneath high, sloping ceilings. Two bedrooms, a bathroom and a technical room complete the accommodation. Terraces on either side look across the surrounding countryside and olive grove towards the sea.

The generous grounds offer room for unhurried outdoor living. Breakfast on the terrace, sheltered evening meals and olives from your own trees bring a tangible connection to the Sicilian countryside. The layout suits two families sharing a holiday home or owners who enjoy hosting while retaining their privacy. Living in one apartment and letting the other is also an option to explore, subject to checking the requirements for the intended rental use.

The beaches of Seccagrande, Borgo Bonsignore and the River Platani estuary are approximately 15 minutes away by car. Sciacca is around 20–25 minutes away, while nearby Ribera provides shops, pharmacies and services throughout the year. Palermo and Trapani airports are approximately 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours away by car.

Technical condition and development options

According to the seller, the property holds a habitability certificate. However, ground movement has caused cracking in part of the building, and consolidation work is required. The owners have geological and geotechnical reports, together with a quotation for the strengthening works and subsequent repairs to finishes. An independent specialist should review the documentation and proposed works before purchase.

The planning status of the outdoor kitchen and shower also requires verification and, if necessary, regularisation. The grounds offer space to consider a swimming pool, subject to technical assessment and the necessary approvals.
