Kavel in Collesano

Bauland Plot Oliveto - CollesanoCollesano This plot is 22,000 m² in size, slightly hilly and faces north - the sea - and is perhaps 2 km from Campofelice as the crow flies. The main feature of this property is the beautifully tended olive trees, which number around 450 and are very productive. A power line runs past the property, so that only a well needs to be drilled, as there is no water connection. Alternatively, a pipe could be laid from the nearest water pipe across the neighbors' plots. The access road is currently somewhat precarious, as the shortest connection to the north has become difficult to pass due to a storm. Before selling, we need to clarify with the neighbors whether these 50 m could perhaps be repaired through a joint investment. This would only cost a few 100 € each, the price asked by the owners is in the region of around 100,000 €, which is in this area.If you build your dream house on this plot, you can realize over 200 m² of living space, of course the house can also be smaller. Other families, including some Germans, have already built their homes on similarly sized neighboring plots.Surroundings The welcoming and versatile town of Collesano was initially a Moorish fortress on Monte d'Oro, the so-called Gold Hill, before it was renamed Golisanum. Conquered by the Norman Count Roger in the 13th century, it became the center of a large feudal lordship with strong military protection and economic interests that stretched from the sea to the heart of the Madonie.Today's Collesano stretches almost as far as the sea and borders the coastal towns of Campofelice di Roccella and Lascari to the north. To the east, it touches another of our most popular real estate tips in the region, Gratteri.The town, with a population of around four thousand, caught our eye when we noticed a recent boom in international buyers in the town, who have formed a very welcoming and active community. Not that the local way of life is in any way under threat, as many of Collesano's residents are descended from families who have made their home in the town for centuries. The old mystery plays "la Cercha" and "la Casazza" are still performed to celebrate Holy Week, and the festivals around the "Chiesa Madre" bring the town to life.More recently, the town has made a name for itself as a center for beautiful handmade ceramics and has entered motorsport folklore as the venue for the legendary Targa Florio, the world's first rally of its kind. The small village's hairpin bend was a precursor to the famous bend in Monte Carlo - and perhaps even the inspiration for it.All the stores, bars and restaurants you and your guests need for a relaxed day out can be found just a few minutes' walk from your stunning front door. This is the most historic and beautiful part of the city. On the northern edge of the city, the architecture becomes a little more modern, but the view of the sea is truly unforgettable.The nearest sandy beach is only 20 minutes away, and the famous golden sandy beach of Cefalù can be reached in just a little more time. Sicily's main city, Palermo, is only an hour to the west, and if you prefer to take the train, you can catch a train at sea level in Campofelice.
