▶️ Casa Mulino

At Contrada Marina Vescovato, in front of the ancient walls of Belisario in a quiet area of the historic center of Tropea, conveniently close to all amenities, our agency is offering a piece of Tropean history for sale: The Ancient Saracen Mill.
The mills currently found along the Lumia stream, which flows down to the ancient Tropean shipyards (where fishing vessels and galleys were once built, including those that took an active part in the famous Battle of Lepanto), are among the few remaining of a larger series of mills, which once filled the valleys of Tropea. The Lumia stream, whose name is believed to be of Arab origin, flows from Sant’Agase into Tropea along the Marina road, with four grain mills belonging to different families.

These mills are called “Arab” due to their half-barrel shape that recalls Islamic architecture. “But their origin and use dates back to the 17-1800’s.”
The property is currently in fair condition, consisting of the following:
Private fenced-in garden on 3 levels of approximately 600 m2 with sea view, and verandas of approximately 40 m2.
Ground floor composed of a kitchen, living room and a closet.
First floor consisting of 3 bedrooms with a sea view, and a 2 bathrooms one with shower and one with bath tub.
The entire interior space measures approximately 160m2. The structure also includes an ancient cistern which is currently not in use.
There are also 4 parking spaces.
The property is full of traces of a deep past, giving it a mysterious and almost magical air.
It goes without saying that whoever purchases this property also purchases a piece of Tropean history to be preserved as a testimony for future generations.
Given its historical interest and suggestive location, the property is also very well-suited for anyone wishing to generate tourist income. Guests would find themselves in a truly unique and intriguing environment, that few other locations in Tropea could offer.

The real estate agency, through an associated and respected construction company, is also available to assist the client in the restoration of the property.
