Dolce and Gabbana's villa in Sicily is up for sale for £5.8 million

Fancy buying a property owned by Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana (yes, the Dolce & Gabbana)?

You can… if you have £6million to spare.

Domenico and Stefano are selling their luxurious villa on the Stromoli Island, Sicily, for the bargain price of £5.8 million, exclusively through estate agents Lionard.

It’s a pretty snazzy listing.

For one thing, the location is glorious. If you dream of coastal views and warm weather, Stromboli Island is a great shout. The villa sits near a cliff edge overlooking the ocean.

And if you turn away from the sea you’ll get to look out over the island, spotting the nearby active Iddu volcano.

Plus it’s been visited by all sorts of celebs. Dolce and Gabbana have owned the villa since the 90s, and regularly spent their summers there throwing parties for their A-list friends. Think Naomi Campbell, Emilia Clarke, and Madonna, to name a few.

The villa itself is pretty special. The interiors have been furnished with unique items found by the designers, Dolce & Gabbana fabrics, and bits and bobs from local artists.

If the new owner ignores the urge to redecorate, they’ll live in a place with bursts of colour – a bright green in one bedroom, teal in a living room, a gorgeous mosaic wall.

Each suite has its own colour theme chosen by Dolce and Gabbana, with many featuring ‘hand-painted majolica that adorn the walls and floors’.

And the basics are splendid too. The property has seven bedrooms, nine bathrooms (each with lava stone cladding), and gorgeous outdoor areas with cosy nooks for deep meaningful chats.

The island also has its own helipad, in case you have guests flying over.

It’s not known why Domenico and Stefano are selling the home after so many years. While they ended their romantic relationship in 2005, the designers have continued to share the villa as one of their multiple properties as they continued to work together.

The pair also own villas in Portofino and Monte Carlo.

Regardless of why they’re selling the home, we can all gaze upon the listing’s photos and wish we had enough money to buy such a stunning villa. Behold:
