Villa D'auteur Exclusive Avec Parc Botanique Et Vue Sur La Mer — Aci Catena, Sicile

In the heart of the enchanting Riviera dei Ciclopi, just minutes from the Baroque charm of Acireale and the crystal-clear coastal waters, Von Poll Real Estate offers for sale one of the most extraordinary residences in the area. This property, over 400 sqm, is an oasis of privacy, luxury, and ecological sustainability, designed for those who wish to experience the essence of Sicilian lifestyle.

Set within a garden of about 4000 sqm with authentic lava stone walls, the villa is surrounded by an English lawn and a unique tropical orchard (mango, avocado, passion fruit, cherimoya). The staggered-bloom citrus grove ensures fresh fruit from November to June, while the perimeter olive grove produces over 100 liters of private organic oil annually.

The garden is an emotional journey featuring artistic lanterns, ancient jars, a pond with a waterfall, and a 12x6 meter saltwater mosaic pool complete with hydromassage and a shower nestled among lava rocks. Water and energy autonomy is total thanks to a private well with large collection tanks and a 10 kW photovoltaic system with a carport.

The heart of summer life is the spectacular 400 sqm paved terrace. Here, in a commanding position overlooking the panorama and the Ionian Sea, stands a beautiful gazebo in perfect Aeolian style, designed for moments of absolute relaxation.

Next to the porch is a professional outdoor kitchen with a wood-fired oven, ideal for hosting private chefs and high-end catering. Guests can sit around four large enameled lava stone tables, beside an ancient working sundial that marks the slow passage of Sicilian seasons.

The main building spans two levels, meticulously detailed, plus a basement cellar and a high-tech technical room connected to the solar thermal system.

The ground floor is dedicated to representation and consists of an open space housing the living room with a sculpted fireplace, dining area, and an American billiards table. A 4-meter sliding glass door opens onto the terrace, creating a seamless connection with the pool. The visual centerpiece is a large cylindrical aquarium imported from the USA, wrapped by a monumental glass and stainless steel staircase leading to the sleeping area. The U-shaped kitchen is a masterpiece of functionality, equipped with industrial ventilation and connected to a convenient pantry/laundry room.

On the sleeping floor, a U-shaped corridor distributes the rooms, including the master suite facing east to wake up with the sunrise over the sea. It features a modern fireplace, an 8-meter walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a two-person hydromassage tub, mosaic shower, and Finnish sauna. The floor also includes a fully equipped gym, a panoramic study, guest rooms, and staff quarters.

Total security is guaranteed by a camera system controllable via smartphone. An elite, self-sufficient property ready to live in.

The villa’s location in the renowned Poggio Belvedere residential area is strategic for tourism, high-level hospitality, and entertainment. The proximity to the Torre Casalotto Golf Club makes the villa very appealing to sports enthusiasts. The property is immersed in the greenery of traditional Sicilian citrus groves and lies at the foot of the Timpa di Acireale, a lava cliff overlooking the sea that offers an atmosphere of absolute tranquility while being close to the main hubs of nightlife and culture along the Ionian coast.
