Description
In Taormina, a renowned tourist destination in Sicily, Villa Margherita stands, a luxurious residence for sale located in an exclusive and panoramic position overlooking the sea. Built on Mount Tauro, just above the bay of S. Nicola, this villa represents an authentic oasis of luxury immersed in the natural beauty of the surrounding vegetation and the crystal-clear sea. Dating back to the mid-19th century, the villa was originally built by Hughes, an English accountant of Admiral Nelson, who moved to Sicily to manage the properties of the Duke of Bronte. After meticulous restoration work carried out by Architect Bambara and under the supervision of the Superintendency of Cultural and Environmental Heritage of Messina, the villa has been restored to its former glory, retaining its historical charm and adding touches of contemporary luxury. Spread over three levels with breathtaking 360-degree views of the sea, the villa offers refined and bright interiors, enriched with local artisanal details such as antique French oak plank floors and intricately crafted internal doors. The main level features a spacious living area with panoramic views, a winter garden overlooking the sea, and a Boffi-designed kitchen. The second level houses a study, a bedroom with bathroom, a fitness area, and a large terrace. The sleeping area, on the third level, comprises a master bedroom with walk-in closet, private bathroom, and a vast sea-facing terrace, along with a second bedroom with en suite bathroom and dedicated service spaces. Outside, the terraced park with swimming pool offers a relaxation oasis, complemented by two dependencies overlooking the sea, perfect for guests or additional spaces. A stroll through the park towards the sea reveals further green terraces and shaded areas, ideal for fully enjoying the magnificent view and outdoor spaces.
