Description
Rif: 32461202-61 Classe energetica: G Rif. B202-61 A pochi minuti da Chiaramonte Gulfi, immerso nel silenzio della campagna ragusana, sorge un antico casale dellOttocento, luogo dove il tempo sembra essersi fermato e ogni dettaglio racconta una storia. Varcando lingresso, si viene accolti da un grande baglio centrale, pavimentato in pietra bianca attorno al quale si sviluppano gli antichi corpi di fabbrica un tempo dedicati alla produzione dellolio che oggi ospitano un vero e proprio museo con macchinari antichi di fabbricazione napoletana, completi di date incise e perfettamente conservati: un patrimonio darcheologia rurale unico nel suo genere. Accanto al baglio principale, si trova un secondo baglio più piccolo, una struttura autonoma composta da tre antiche stalle che si raccolgono attorno a uno splendido ulivo, creando un cortile intimo, ombreggiato e suggestivo. I bassi sono caratterizzati da affascinanti dettagli medievali come la bifora originale e una bocca di camino di dimensioni eccezionali, considerata unica nella zona.

Una chiesetta privata veglia silenziosa sulla corte, accanto a un maestoso gelso secolare che ombreggia gli spazi aperti e conferisce al luogo unatmosfera quasi mistica. Al piano superiore si trova la dimora principale: 273 mq di ambienti luminosi, pavimenti originali in pece e arredi depoca. La zona notte è com

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.
