Set on a tranquil rise overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, on the northern coast of Sicily near Torre Faro and the northern tip of the island of Sicily, this charming early-20th-century villa offers a rare combination of history, privacy and authentic Mediterranean living. Passed down through generations, the property retains the character of a traditional Sicilian country estate, where family heritage and a deep connection with the surrounding landscape remain an integral part of its identity.
Thanks to its features, the house would make an appealing private family residence or exclusive holiday retreat, while its generous grounds and established character also offer potential for a carefully conceived hospitality project.
The estate extends over approximately 12,500 m² of private land, providing a secluded setting amid greenery, with attractive views across the countryside and towards the Aeolian Islands. Its mature gardens and extensive outdoor spaces create a peaceful atmosphere, making the property particularly appealing to those seeking a private retreat close to the sea.
The villa offers five bedrooms and three bathrooms, alongside a spacious kitchen and several comfortable living areas, some featuring traditional fireplaces. Generous panoramic terraces extend the living spaces outdoors, providing an ideal setting for alfresco dining, entertaining guests or simply enjoying the mild Sicilian climate and the surrounding scenery. Inside, the villa preserves much of its traditional character, enhanced by fine antique furnishings and handcrafted Sicilian furniture dating back to the early 20th century. These details lend the interiors a distinctive sense of history and individuality, complementing the natural beauty of the estate.
A particularly distinctive feature of the estate is its grove of centuries-old olive trees, which continues a long-standing agricultural tradition. The property produces approximately 1,000 litres of extra virgin olive oil every two years, adding an authentic rural dimension to this historic residence.
The outdoor areas also include a 12 × 6 m private swimming pool, surrounded by the property’s peaceful grounds, as well as ample private parking for several vehicles. A private well provides an additional water resource, while a modern photovoltaic system contributes to the property’s energy efficiency.
Despite its secluded position, the property enjoys convenient access to the coast and the nearby beaches of Santo Saba and Montagne di Sabbia. The city of Messina, the motorway network and Reggio Calabria Airport are also within reach, making the villa suitable both as a permanent residence and as a holiday home.
This Messina location offers direct access to the Strait of Messina with nearby ports and marinas ideal for yachting. It is a short drive to Messina’s city center, ferries, and main train station, ensuring excellent regional connectivity. The area provides proximity to cultural landmarks including local museums and churches, alongside Mediterranean dining options and coastal outdoor spaces.

Riccardo and Marta met during their high school years. Since then, their paths have never parted. United by shared dreams and aspirations, they married in 1999 and are today parents of three children. In 2004, driven by their passion for their native land, art, and beauty, they chose the historic heart of Tuscany – the charming village of Anghiari – as the birthplace of a project that already carried the warmth of home: Romolini Immobiliare. A story founded on courage, dedication, and profound values that, paired with their vision, quickly earned them recognition within both the national and international real estate markets. In 2008, an important achievement further strengthened their reputation: Romolini Immobiliare was appointed exclusive affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, the world’s most prestigious name in luxury real estate – a testament to their authenticity and unwavering commitment. Romolini, however, is more than a business: it is a family. Those who have joined Riccardo and Marta in this endeavor were welcomed for their human qualities, integrity, and outstanding professionalism, becoming not just exceptional team members, but part of a greater family. Each brings a unique approach, a personal style, and a shared dedication to the values that have always defined Romolini. In 2020, Danilo, their eldest son, chose to join the company. Having grown up amid the dreams and challenges of the family business, he brought a visionary spirit and a profound love for beauty. Danilo pioneered a new way of presenting properties in Italy, creating emotional and engaging video narratives that captivate and inspire. With his contribution, Romolini Immobiliare embraced a new chapter. A refined approach to communication, an even greater attention to detail, and a client-centered philosophy have established the company as a leading figure in the luxury real estate sector. Romolini is not just a name. It is a legacy. It is a family dream brought to life. It is a journey that moves forward with passion and purpose.
