Building for Sale

The beautiful property is one of the oldest in the historic center which, among the largest and best preserved in Sicily, maintains a character of originality that makes the municipality of Mistretta among the best known in the province, a small pearl of art set among the woods. From the top of its ancient castle, the eye sweeps towards the Tyrrhenian and Aeolian Islands, the snow-capped Etna and the lush green of the surrounding woods. Less than half an hour from the Messina coast, Castel Di Tusa, Santo Stefano di Camastra and many other places of great tourist, artistic and naturalistic interest can be reached.
In this context that seems to have stopped in time, the building stands out which is located on the corner between Via Mercato and Via Catalani near a green area with benches accessible by a large and comfortable stone staircase. Pedestrian access is from Via Mercato 1, through an arched passageway which leads into a delightful internal courtyard with a water well, still in operation. From here, an internal staircase leads to the three floors in which the building is divided according to the following distribution: two apartments - one on the ground floor and one on the first floor - and a garage, partly currently used as a cellar, in the basement with vehicle access from Via Catalani. The internal staircase also allows you to reach a terrace which from the second floor dominates the roofs of the town, offering a unique panorama thanks to the changing colors of the seasons.
Both apartments have three bedrooms, living room, kitchen and two bathrooms. The building is free on three sides, being placed at the corner between two streets and overlooking a green area and so all the rooms have a wide and bright view; in particular two of the bedrooms on the ground floor overlook the internal courtyard with the delightful ancient well and an open view of the equipped green area, while the living room on the first floor enjoys a large terrace shaded by a beautiful climbing vine which characterizes many of the homes in Mistretta.
The load-bearing masonry building tells the story of the family who lived there, with its original majolica floors, the fireplace in the cellar, the brick well and the details of the period furnishings.
Currently the two apartments are independently identified in the land registry, as are the cellar and the garage in the basement and therefore can be sold separately.
Among the unique features, the apartment has a well with a constant source of natural, precious water in the months in which water is rationed and there is also a 3000 liter tank. Furthermore there is the availability of connecting methane.--862fc9c1a89f523f4e7f0f6cb0a6e957!
