Accedendo all'abitazione troviamo al piano terra una zona giorno spaziosa e luminosa, caratterizzata da ambienti accoglienti e ben distribuiti, mentre la cucina ad angolo si inserisce armoniosamente nello spazio e risulta pratica e funzionale. Un elemento che valorizza particolarmente questo ambiente è la grande vetrata, che permette alla luce naturale di entrare generosamente e che conduce direttamente al portico esterno, perfetto per pranzi e cene all'aperto durante la bella stagione. Dal portico si accede al grande terreno di circa 1000 mq, oggi utilizzato come giardino privato, uno spazio verde ideale per il relax, per chi ama vivere all'aria aperta o per famiglie con bambini. Il terreno è però edificabile ed offre quindi la possibilità di realizzare una seconda unità immobiliare, caratteristica che rende questa proprietà particolarmente interessante anche in ottica di investimento o per soluzioni abitative multifamiliari. Sempre al piano terra si sviluppa la prima zona notte, composta da due ampie camere da letto matrimoniali, entrambe ben illuminate e confortevoli. A servizio del piano troviamo un bagno finestrato completo di tutt

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.

Italy launched its digital nomad visa in 2024, making it much easier for remote workers than the old elective residence route. Italian bureaucracy is notoriously slow (3-6 months processing), so patience and a good immigration lawyer are essential.

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.
