Villa with garden and terrace Palermo (Italy)
The house was built in the early 1900s for the Knight Antonio Matranga, an officer of the cavalry, who made it his family home. The house was then occupied by the American army in 1944, becoming one of their branch offices for a few years before being returned to the Matranga family who have remained the owners until today. It is located in the Via Libertà area. The original gate with its steps lead to a majestic entrance with a wooden and iron staircase and a typical window of the time. On the left we find a first small living room and then the main living room which overlooks the first terrace. Continuing we find the dining room which instead overlooks the garden. On the right we find the corridor with wainscoting from which we continue with the guest bathroom, the anteroom and the kitchen.

Farmhouse with garden Bagheria (Italy)
This ancient Water Tower is located in the municipality of Bagheria, in the province of Palermo, and dates from around the mid-19th century; it dates from when the old senie e castelletti irrigation system was replaced by a new irrigation and adduction system using innovative hydraulic machines that made use of steam engines, later replaced by combustion engines. In spite of the fact that, in the province of Palermo, there are many such Towers, ours has its own uniqueness in that it also has the annexed masseria. Today the Tower is no longer in use, but the building maintains its original architectural features: the Piezometric Tower stands 30 meters high, and there can still be found the collection tank and the farm building, original of the time, inside which are the mechanisms necessary to make it work, by means of a hydraulic steam engine; finally it also has a semi-basement floor. The building enjoys views overlooking the Gulf of Palermo and the Conca d'Oro; in addition, the property comes with a rendering showing us the property in its maximum expression post-renovation. The entire complex is listed as a monumental property, as an artifact of historical significance. The property also includes an underground garden of about 5,000 square meters, from which the famous pietra d'Aspra (material used for the construction of the Teatro Massimo in Palermo) was extracted. Two rural buildings of about 80 square meters complete the property. In 2009 the famous Oscar-winning director Giuseppe Tornatore chose the property for the shooting of the film Baaria. La Torre is 1 km from the sea, 14 km from Palermo and 45 km from Palermo's Falcone e Borsellino airport.
