Detached house for sale in Riposto

Remax offers a historic building to renovate just steps from the Port of Riposto. In Riposto, in Via Cristoforo Colombo 87, in a central location and a very short distance from the tourist port and the seafront, we offer a charming detached period building, arranged on several levels and completely in need of renovation. A property with an authentic character, which still retains numerous elements of Sicilian architecture of the period: high, vaulted ceilings, large openings, internal wooden doors, large rooms and a distribution of spaces typical of ancient manor houses. The property is spread over three levels. On the ground floor, there is a large room currently used as a storage space, featuring generous spaces and original construction elements. This space, as part of a comprehensive renovation project and subject to the necessary permits, could be used for a variety of purposes, including as a utility room, storage space, or garage. The two upper floors house numerous spacious rooms, connected by the original internal staircase. The vaulted ceilings are particularly striking and, after careful restoration, could become one of the property's defining features. Completing the property are a terrace and a small outdoor space/courtyard at the rear, valuable features for a property located in the historic heart of the city. The building requires a complete renovation, but its size, independence, and multi-level layout allow for the creation of various projects. It could become a prestigious private residence, possibly reserving a section of the building for hospitality, or it could be transformed into a hospitality facility such as a B&B, guest house, or small charming residence, subject to urban planning feasibility and the necessary permits. The property's proximity to the Port of Riposto, the sea, and key amenities makes it a particularly attractive investment opportunity for tourism, strategically located between Mount Etna and Taormina. A property designed for those seeking not just a home, but a Sicilian palace to restore to its former beauty, showcasing its history, space, and potential.
