Magnificent Villa With Panoramic Views And Historical Artifacts In Taormina

About the Property

In Taormina, Italy, this prestigious villa, built in 1911, is set within a sprawling estate of over 50,000 square meters, offering unparalleled panoramic views of the bay of Giardini Naxos. Once belonging to the family of Admiral Nelson, this remarkable property is rich in history and features extraordinary archaeological artifacts, including a Roman tomb dating back to the 2nd century AD. The villa spans three levels and comprises 14 rooms, including bedrooms and living areas, along with 7 bathrooms. The terraced garden, designed like an amphitheater, provides breathtaking vistas of the sea and Mount Etna. Its strategic location enhances its allure, being just a 5-minute drive from Isola Bella and the heart of Taormina, and only 8 minutes from the Greek Theatre, with which it shares a direct line of sight. The estate also includes a three-story guesthouse, and the grounds extend to the outskirts of central Taormina. Adorned with historical and exquisite elements, the villa features Tuscan order columns made of Melilli stone, mullioned windows, bronze statues, a temple dedicated to the god Pan, and the Cave of the Falcons, from which the villa derives its name. This estate stands as a unique opportunity to restore a property that once welcomed King George V and Queen Mary, along with Prince George and Princess Victoria, during their visit in April 1925.
