Description
BRA: Nella prestigiosa collina di San Matteo, una delle zone residenziali più apprezzate della città per panorama e tranquillità, villa libera su tre lati, completamente ristrutturata e riqualificata energeticamente nel 2019. La proprietà si caratterizza per il grande comfort dei suoi spazi abitativi e per l'importante luminosità che accompagna ogni ambiente della casa. L'ingresso si apre su uno splendido soggiorno con camino a vista, un ambiente caldo ed accogliente che rappresenta il cuore della proprietà; la cucina è abitabile ed è direttamente collegata alla zona living. Sempre al piano terra, ben disimpegnati, troviamo una prima camera, un bagno di servizio ed una comoda zona lavanderia. Un'elegante scala in legno conduce al primo piano, che ospita la zona notte: qui trovano spazio una camera da letto, con bagno privato ed uscita sul balcone, due ulteriori camere da letto, entrambe con sfogo sul secondo balcone, ed un ampio bagno con doccia. Tramite una scala a chiocciola si raggiunge poi il piano mansardato, concepito come un unico ampio ambiente open space, con bagno ed uscita sul terzo ed ultimo balcone della casa. Impreziosiscono la proprietà un giardino privato pianeggiante di circa 2.000 mq, sul quale si può realizzare una bellissima piscina interrata, ed un'ampia autorimessa esterna. Questa proprietà rappresenta la soluzione ideale per famiglie alla ricerca di una villa di recente ristrutturazione, in posizione panoramica e riservata, con ampi spazi interni ed est

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.

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.
