Description
Rif: 40001095-275 Classe energetica: G - EPglnr: 100.00 kWh/m² Lagenzia Immobiliare Internazionale RE/MAX presenta in vendita esclusiva una Dimora Storica Siciliana, in provincia di Ragusa. Immagina di entrare in un palazzo storico indipendente nel cuore di Ispica, un vero gioiello risalente alla fine del 700 ed inizio 800, costruito da Bruno di Belmonte Franzo e sapientemente restaurato recentemente per unire il fascino del passato alla comodità del presente. Qui ogni dettaglio respira lo stile liberty: volte in pietra nei dammusi, pavimenti con maioliche colorate, lampadari di cristallo che illuminano soggiorni e sale da pranzo con tavoli antichi e sedie intarsiate, camere da letto accoglienti con letti in legno massiccio e testiere ornate. La proprietà si sviluppa su più livelli depositi e dammusi spaziosi al piano terra per totali 163 mq con alti soffitti perfetti per usi versatili come magazzini, laboratori o ampliamenti abitativi, e circa 330 mq di abitazione tra piano primo e secondo, con un lungo balcone panoramico sulla via dingresso che regala scorci suggestivi del centro storico. Passeggiando tra le stanze, noti subito larmonia tra antico e moderno: il doppio salone con alti soffitti affrescati, cucina abitabile e bagni rinnovati senza perdere leleganza depoca, e quel tocco di calore siciliano dato dai dettagli che raccontano storie di generazioni. È un immobile unico, ideale per chi ama vivere in un contesto storico ma con tutti i comfort, perfetto sia come dimora

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.
