This Is What A €5.2M Baroque Villa In Palermo Looks Like

With its dramatic double staircase, handsome balustrades and elegant stuccoes, this Palermo villa certainly makes an impression. It dates back as far as 1730, though it was gradually restored in 1990 to create a truly unique period home.

Inside, the breathtaking entrance hall leads you to a reception room and bar, nestled beside a spectacular wellness area complete with a sauna, Turkish bath and five massage rooms. You’ll also spot 15 spacious bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom and magnificent garden views.

The property amasses more than 2,500 square feet of living space, with a network of light-filled halls boasting towering windows and handcrafted ceramic flooring. Outside, expansive terraces look out across the Sicilian countryside – and there’s even a swimming pool, a private chapel and a historic walled garden in the three-acre grounds.

Sound dreamy? It might be a picture-perfect botanical oasis, but the villa is also just ten minutes from the fine white sand and glittering turquoise waters of Mondello Beach – and only 20 minutes from the centre of Palermo. You can’t ask for much more (though you’ll need to be armed with just over €5.2 million if you want to make it yours…).
