An American bought a house in a Sicilian village for only 5,555 euros. However, that was not planned.
Sambuca – Meredith Tabbone probably thought nothing of it when she was about to change her life forever. In April 2019, the American bought a house in Italy. Ironically, in Sambuca, Sicily, where her great-grandfather was born. She only found out about the auction in advance by chance. Because five is her favorite number, Tabbone offered 5,555 euros. The house was number five and was in a village of 5,500 people.
