Kavel in Castelbuono

Plot Giardina - CastelbuonoHilltop development plot with planning permission near castelbuonoThis four thousand square metre estate of undeveloped hillside land is not only of interest for its picturesque location in the Madonie Natural Park, or the endless panoramas offered between the olive and fruit trees scattered across its fertile soil.Plot Giardina has development permission already in place, with plans approved by the local authorities for the construction of a three bedroom house with private swimming pool.A professional plan in placeWhile the temptations of building your own home in Sicily are obvious, the process is a notoriously complex one. In order to build, land owners can spend tens of thousands of Euro, and lose many stressful months in pursuit of the requisite consents. The bureaucracy here is fiendish, and a single misfiling can set a project back months.The seller of Plot Giardina is himself a well-known local architect, and his blueprints are listed for sale along with the land. If not for a change in life circumstances he would be developing the site himself in 2023, and so you can be guaranteed to find yourself dealing with a project that has been cared with both professional skill and personal passion.Create your own designOf course, if you have a different vision for Plot Giardina it would be entirely your choice to start over from scratch and commission a new architect. But for a new developer, or one looking to extract maximum value from the purchase price, the option to use the existing plans is one we'd strongly recommend.The proposed villaThe designs, which you can explore in full via 's complete listing (see below for details) are for a two storey home with a pitched roof and superb views throughout. A huge sunny terrace would wrap around the villa, with direct entrances from all rooms.A modern, open plan living space would be flanked on two sides by huge full-length windows, creating a space where the natural sunshine of Sicily can ba harnessed to offer a warming brightness all year round.With the swimming pool below to put an unmistakable flourish on the villa of your dreams, we think there's huge untapped value on offer in this spacious, rich and colourful estate.
