Description
Nel cuore pulsante di una delle zone più eleganti e desiderate di Bologna, dove la tranquillità residenziale incontra lo stile cittadino, sorge una residenza che ridefinisce il concetto di "casa". Situato al terzo piano di uno stabile signorile e servito da un comodo ascensore, questo appartamento è il risultato di una visione architettonica audace e di una ristrutturazione che non ha ammesso compromessi. Varcando la soglia, si viene immediatamente avvolti da un'atmosfera di rara bellezza: la luce danza sugli spazi generosi della zona giorno, dove il salone con cucina a vista diventa il teatro perfetto per la convivialità mentre il balcone, naturale estensione del living, regala uno sfogo esterno prezioso. La zona notte è un santuario di riservatezza e comfort. La camera padronale non è una semplice stanza, ma una suite privata arricchita da un bagno interno dal design impeccabile. Le altre due camere, ampie e versatili, si prestano a ospitare sogni o ambizioni professionali. Il secondo bagno, brilla per qualità delle finiture ed è organizzato da una zona lavanderia perfettamente attrezzata, integrata con discrezione in un mobile su misura che scompare alla vista per preservare la purezza delle linee e l'eleganza dell'ambiente. Ogni angolo di questa dimora parla di cura, dai materiali scelti con sapienza artigianale alla distribuzione fluida degli spazi. Non è solo un immobile di metratura importante, ma un'esperienza sensoriale dedicata a chi cerca una casa unica, pronta per
Location
Open in Google MapsLiving in Bologna
Italy's culinary capital — home to ragu, tortellini, and mortadella — with a walkable medieval center of terracotta-colored porticoes. The oldest university in the Western world keeps it young and progressive, and it's a major rail hub (Florence in 35 min, Milan in 60). Cheaper than Rome, Milan, or Florence, with a strong sense of local identity that rewards learning Italian.
Espresso at the bar every morning, pasta made the way your grandmother wished she could, and a culture that treats every meal, every sunset, and every conversation as something worth lingering over.
Visa
Digital Nomad Visa — requires remote work for foreign clients/employers, min €28,000/yr net income, and 6 months work experience. Valid 1 year, renewable. Elective Residence Visa — for retirees and those with passive income (€31,000/yr minimum, no work allowed). Both offer a path to long-term residency.

Next steps for moving to Italy
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
