Enjoy Sicily Unpacked on the BBC

2012-01-04T20:08:00.000Z

When we think of Sicily we often conjour up all sorts of romantic and yet confusing emotions. If you have never been, then leave behind all your preconceptions and prepare to indulge in one of the most relaxing yet inspirational regions of Italy.

But no need to simply take our word, the BBC is now presenting a 3-part mini-series - Sicily Unpacked - in which Art critic Andrew Graham-Dixon ventures on a journey with chef Giorgio Locatelli around the wonderful island of Sicily.

Sicily is a book of history and art, a compendium of the greatest civilizations and cultures of all time. A sunny island whose landscape is rich in contrasts, with a splendid coastline and a refined, delicious and varied cuisine of traditional flavours and exquisite aromas: the quintessence of Mediterranean culture, yet also dense with intellectual complexity and refinement, so well represented by the literary masterpieces of Luigi Pirandello, Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa, Leonardo Sciascia, Gesualdo Bufalino and today, Andrea Camilleri. Every style, every movement in art is richly represented in Sicily.

The series highlights the rich heritage of the island to show you the Sicily you may not be aware of, showing us the unique literature, politics and religion, architecture, art, not to mention the food, wine and inspirational landscape

Sicily Unpacked explores these various elements of Sicilian culture showing how they interact in surprising ways.

Once you have enjoyed the series, you may be interested in a visit to Sicily to view properties, and this is where we specialise. not only will our partners show you wonderful buildings for sale, you will also be able to sample Sicilan hospitaly and family cuisine at first hand.

Our favouites area of Sicily is Ragusa and the whole south-east corner of Sicily, This area continues to offer property buyers all the ingredients necessary for a wonderful holiday home: a year round warm climate, sandy beaches and wide selection of holiday properties at attractive prices. The new airport of Comiso in the south of the island is located just a few kilometers from Ragusa. Direct flights from the UK already exist to Catania, but when Comiso opens (Ryanair and Jet2 both ready to fly there) this will open up the southern coast of the island to second home owners, so now is the time to take advantage of the excellent prices, before the rush starts!

The southern Sicilian coast around Ragusa is an ideal destination for those who want to combine a relaxing vacation on the beach with cultural sightseeing in one of the most renowned Baroque areas of Europe. Add to this a new 800 boat marina and Ragusa is an even more exciting holiday home destination

Life is sweet in Italy

2011-03-30T10:24:00.000+01:00

When we think of La Dolce Vita it usually conjures up sun soaked beaches, balmy Mediterranean evenings and sparkling wines accompanying delicious Italian cuisine. This week in Turin the term La Dolce Vita (The Sweet Life) takes on a slightly different meaning.

Turin, the capital town of Piemonte is celebrating its reputation as Italy's Chocolate Capital with the Cioccolato chocolate show running from March 25th to April 3rd. Festivities will feature 6,000 chocolate makers from Piemonte and other parts of Italy, with tastings, exhibits, cooking courses, tours and river cruises.

Visitors will be treated to the tasty stages of chocolate making, from the base to its final form. A fully functioning Gianduia factory will be in operation. Gianduia is a hazelnut and chocolate confection for which Turin is famed. Gianduia was first sold in 1865, becoming the first chocolates wrapped in glittering foil.

The Accorsi Ometto Museum will show visitors how aristocrats of the 1700's indulged in hot chocolate, when it was still a privilege of elite circles. Turin's chocolate-making roots began in 1559, when Emanuele Filiberto di Savoia first brought cocoa beans home to Piemonte. Chocolate was served in the region exclusively as a hot beverage until 1826, the year entrepreneur Pierre Paul Caffarel introduced the production of solid chocolate. Caffarel is still a leading Italian chocolate brand.

Today, the Piemonte region produces 80,000 tons of Gianduia, 40% of Italy's total production. Gianduia was also central to the fortunes of Italy's chocolate multinational Ferrero. Pietro Ferrero started manufacturing chocolate in the Piemonte town of Alba in 1942. His first product was a hazelnut and chocolate spread called "Giandujot," a precursor to the company's world-famous Nutella.

We are also featuring a high quality developer set in rural Piemonte - La Faumlenta. For more details click here.

Clients often ask our advice when preparing for their property viewing trips to Italy. So we would like to offer some tips that will enable you to get the most out of your visit.

Only use an agent who responds in a timely, informative manner and actually answers the questions you have asked!
Make sure your agent is representing your interests only. Italian agents represent both buyer and seller
In Italy, both buyer and vendor pay commission on sales plus VAT. Being a UK based agent Realpoint does not charge VAT on commission.
Use an agent with a wide selection of properties. One point of contact who can organise everything, makes your viewing trip much easier.
Chose an agent who can speak the language of your choice.
Work only with registered agents.
Insist on an itinerary for your visit, avoid spending valuable viewing time looking at unsuitable properties.
If you are interested in a renovation project ask that a Geometra or Architect be present so you can discuss your renovation plans.
Do not sign anything until you have had a period of reflection - preferably when back at home It is a buyer's market in Italy so the house of your dreams will probably still be available.

And finally... be prepared for the unique experience called.... Italy.

2010-07-21T07:42:00.009+01:00

Castles and Palazzi (large noble houses in towns), can often be architecturally stunning, artistic with frescoed walls and ceilings, brimming with history and have features like massive wine cellars or terraces on the battlements to enjoy the view.

In Venice there are many palazzi on sale but often, because the secretive nature of Venetians, the palazzi are not sold on the open market and you will need to know the right people to even to hear about such properties. The palazzi are usually being sold by Venetian noble families and prices, as you would imagine are high, 10,000 euro per m2 in some cases.

Another town of Palazzi is Florence and in the centre of town, close to the Duomo, the same rules apply - knowing local contacts and having the where with all to pay.

Castles are usually in the countryside and prices per m2 vary considerably depending on condition, whereas town centre palazzi are costly whatever their condition may be.

Although the idea of owning such a property - a castle for example - is attractive to many people there are some issues that need to be addressed. Firstly what is the purpose of the purchase? If you are thinking of a private residence then you may be buying something of which you only use a small part - the rest of the rooms are left unused. Also castles and palazzi were not built to present day energy conservation standards and with high ceilings and drafty corridors your heating bill could well as high as one of the ceilings!

You may think about stripping the property and put in a modern interior and fix the exterior to stop the drafts. This can be done but the Italian national trust for architecture often have such buildings under their tutelage, and changes to the facades such as windows and doors are not allowed and any renovation has to be carried out in keeping with the original look, feel and materials.

If however you think a palazzi in the centre of town of a medieval castle in the Tuscan or Umbrian countryside could make an excellent 5 star country club then you could well be right. The amount of land that comes with theses estates is often large and a golf course, tennis courts and pools are all options. Also the size of such properties suggests a commercial venture or dividing the property into apartments, and selling off the individual apartments freehold. This is popular to many purchasers, it means they can turn up to their apartment without worrying about maitenance or if the place will be clean, as everything is taken care of by a management company.

Luxury modern villas on the Tuscan and Ligurian coast are always a good investment not only for capital growth but also rental income. Locations such as the Maremma in Tuscany or Sanremo on the Italian Riviera are places where bargains can still be had, but Portofino or Forte dei Marmi really are the most expensive locations on the coast - prices up to 14,000 euro per m2. As you can imagine you will be rubbing shoulders with national and international personalities and the villas are often in stunning locations, built with luxury in mind : marble everywhere (Massa Carrara is just down the road from Forte dei Marmi) and with every modern convenience. The Russian market like Forte dei Marmi.

You need to weight up not only the location but also the property itself. In the centre of Florence where are you going to park? Can I get workman who knows how to restore stone castles - usually yes, but they are becoming rarer!

Property in Liguria and the Italian Riviera

2010-07-14T14:04:00.006+01:00

I recently travelled to Liguria to refresh our relationship with some of our best partners operating in the Liguria region. This region has changed since my last visit - and all for the better. Staying at Ventimiglia I learned that a new marina, on the cards for the last 20 years, is now taking shape.

I learned about the inreasing price differentials between neigbouring France, making the Italian Riviera much more afforable than the French Cote D'Azur.

In particular the cost of living is much better in Italy and many French people travel over the border for their weekly supplies of food and wine.

Known as the Riviera dei Fiori (The Riviera of Flowers), Liguria is an absolute jewel. With 300 km of coastline, beautiful beaches, picturesque little towns, colourful outdoor markets and wonderful food, it is not suprising that Liguria property is so popular with second home owners. Accessibility is not a problem either, with airports at Nice and Genova.

Property prices in Liguria have drawn people away from its slightly aloof neighbour, the Côte d'Azur. There are properties to suit all budgets and we think our selection will prompt you to take a closer look at this wonderful region, it really does offer the best in Italian living!.

For example this charming property in the Pompeiana Borgata Conio area. Just 3 km inland from the coast in a quiet, characteristic village setting. The house is stone built on 3 floors and has a large roof terrace from which there are panoramic sea views.

The New Ferrari 458 Italia.

2009-11-21T05:46:00.007Z

While it’s true that every Ferrari is innovative by definition, it’s equally true that in the course of the Prancing Horse’s history, certain cars have marked a genuine departure from the current range. This is very much the case with the Ferrari 458 Italia, which is a massive leap forward from the company’s previous mid-rear engined sports cars.The new model is a synthesis of style, creative flair, passion and cutting-edge technology, characteristics for which Italy as a nation is well-known. For this reason Ferrari chose to add the name of its homeland to the traditional figure representing the displacement and number of cylinders.The Ferrari 458 Italia is a completely new car from every point of view: engine, design, aerodynamics, handling, instrumentation and ergonomics, just to name a few.

The world’s most famous and favourite red of Ferrari hails from Emilia Romagna. The racing cars which carry the logo of the prancing horse are not only beautiful sports cars but also a legend. A legend which finds its roots in Maranello, the birthplace of Ferrari in the province of Modena: a legend which has taken on and conquered the entire world. A Ferrari is more than just a car to get you from A to B, a Ferrari is an experience, an attitude, a lifestyle. The car can be seen as a reflection of who you are - stylish, fast-edged, and all class. Thousands, if not millions, of people around the world are fans of this stylish racing machine. With its glamorous design and roaring engine, the Ferrari can't help but turn heads wherever it goes. It's a car that gets noticed, a car that people dream about.

However, Ferrari is not the only automotive giant in Emilia Romagna, for Maserati and Lamborghini and their respective museums and factories also call this region home.
