These exceptional properties put on sale at a high price in the Basti region

The Bastia region is not particularly known for being one of the areas that host exceptional residences. These villas, castles, former convents and even mansions can be found in large numbers in the far south of Corsica or in the Ajaccio region and in Balagne. In smaller quantities, Nebbiu and Cap Corse nevertheless bring their share of luxurious goods. There we also find some nuggets on sale at prices largely inaccessible to ordinary mortals. “These are rare properties for sale, intended for a few initiates who love beautiful stones and are sufficiently motivated to agree to undertake major work on them, explains Frédéric Olivieri, head of the “Corsica Sotheby’s International Realty” agency, specializing in luxury real estate. It's u“I'm lucky for the island's architectural heritage to see these places regain their former grandeur.”

Here are four properties that caught our attention from Cap Corse to Bastia, passing through Nebbiu.

A former convent rehabilitated in Bastia

This former 17th century convent, rehabilitated into a 160 m2 house, catches the eye because of its authentic character, its positioning in the heart of an 11,880 m2 estate located in the hamlet of Cardo, but also its price. The whole is sold for 1,645,000 euros by the Arthurimmo.com agency. “Outside, there are several garden sheds, a water source, ponds and much more… This maintained property is populated with fruit trees, a green atmosphere reigns around this residence.”
