Historic 15,000 Sqm Tower with Panoramic Views and Development Potential

About the Property

A historic 15th-century tower, meticulously restored in 2019, stands majestically on a 15,000 m² estate in Falerna, Calabria, Italy. This ancient Norman watchtower, originally constructed around 1400 AD, offers breathtaking 360° panoramic views of the Gulf of Sant’Eufemia and the Aeolian Islands, including the dramatic silhouettes of Stromboli and Filicudi on clear days. Located just 10 minutes from Lamezia Terme International Airport, this property presents a unique opportunity for a prestigious private residence, luxury relais, boutique hotel, or refined agriturismo. The main tower features a grand reception hall with a central fireplace and an impressive triple-height ceiling, complemented by four double bedrooms and two bathrooms across its first and second floors. A spectacular panoramic rooftop terrace provides stunning sea and mountain vistas. Additional spaces include a kitchen, entrance hall, double garages, and service rooms partially carved into the hillside. Several exterior structures are in an advanced shell condition, allowing for customization or expansion. The estate also encompasses “Villa del Prete,” which requires restoration and includes a small deconsecrated private chapel, along with scattered rural cottages needing renovation. Agricultural facilities such as stables, barns, sheepfolds, and pigsties are present, alongside productive olive groves, cork oak woodlands, and an orchard. The property benefits from two natural potable water springs, one of which supplies the private swimming pool, and two natural basins for livestock watering. Price: €1,300,000 including fees (paid by the seller). Exclusive listing by Cristina Sacco – Your Real Estate.
