Detached house for sale in Castellammare del Golfo, Scopello

A stone's throw from the historic Balata di Baida Castle: independence, nature, and great potential in the heart of western Sicily. Nestled in the picturesque Trapani countryside, at the foot of the historic Balata di Baida Castle, this property represents a rare opportunity for those who wish to live in an authentic setting, where history and nature blend harmoniously. The medieval Balata di Baida Castle has dominated the surrounding countryside for centuries and is one of the area's historic symbols. The surrounding landscape is characterised by rolling hills, springs, olive groves, and pristine countryside, creating an atmosphere of absolute tranquility. Its location is strategic: just minutes away are Scopello, the Zingaro Nature Reserve, Castellammare del Golfo, and the splendid beaches that lead to San Vito Lo Capo and Cornino. The property is accessed via a convenient sliding gate that leads to the private outdoor area, part garden and part land, ideal for creating a vegetable garden, planting fruit trees, or creating a pleasant outdoor space. A magnificent lemon tree also enhances the garden. The main building consists of a completely detached house of approximately 76 square meters, comprising four rooms, featuring functional spaces, a charming mezzanine area, and a recently redone roof. The property is in good condition and is immediately habitable. Some rooms offer a picturesque direct view of Balata di Baida Castle, a detail that makes this home even more charming. Serving the house is an attached warehouse, useful as a storage room, workshop or support room.
