Restored Italian Villa and Beachfront Property on Favignana Island, Sicily
Favignana, the largest of the Egadi Islands located off the western coast of Sicily, is renowned for its crystal-clear waters, stunning beaches, and rich history.
This Sicilian island offers a slower pace of life, an idyllic paradise not completely disconnected with the modern world. Regular ferry services connect Favignana to Trapani on the Sicilian mainland, making it easy to access.
This beautifully restored villa offers more than just a beachfront home; it provides an immersive experience in one of Favignana's most "attractive spots" on the Strada Comunale Costiera di Tramontana, boasting stunning views of Levanzo island in the distance, and proximity to the island's vibrant center.
The unique coastal home offers direct access to the pristine sea and a yellow sand beach, with an amphitheater-shaped breakwater creating a natural pool. This unique feature allows the watercourse to change with the tides, offering a dynamic and ever-changing seascape.
The property offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious, open-concept living room, kitchen, and dining room, spread across 2206 sq ft (205 m2) of living space. Large glass doors open out onto the surrounding terraces, offering stunning sea views.
The restoration of the villa thoughtfully preserves the essence of the original building, utilizing vintage materials like multicolored cement tiles for the floors.
This careful attention to detail ensures the villa blends seamlessly with its natural surroundings, nestled between the sea, sand, and rock. Advanced modern technologies have been employed to keep the house dry and comfortable.
A dry stone wall encircles the property, dividing the garden's interior spaces, which are composed entirely of sea sand. Various shaded areas and wood sheds are strategically designed to maximize enjoyment of the outdoor environment throughout the day.
The villa and garden also feature two saltwater pools, providing perfect spots for relaxation and rejuvenation.
Villa Marina is situated in a pristine environment, allowing residents to appreciate the natural beauty of Favignana year-round.
The property also includes two large freshwater tanks, ensuring a reliable water supply.
