Description
Nel cuore della zona di Via Taranto a Lecce, a pochi passi da Porta Napoli, proponiamo un appartamento di oltre 65 mq, ideale per chi cerca un investimento in zona universitaria a pochi minuti a piedi dal centro storico della città. Situato in una delle primissime parallele di Via Taranto, l'immobile offre un facile accesso ai principali servizi residenziali, turistici e alle principali strutture accademiche. Risalente agli anni 40, l'appartamento conserva il fascino dell'epoca grazie alle cementine originali presenti in cucina che donano un tocco di autenticità e carattere, mentre le volte a vela presenti aggiungono un elemento architettonico distintivo, creando un'atmosfera accogliente e unica. La disposizione interna prevede un ingresso soggiorno con balcone che rende l'ambiente luminoso e gradevole, mentre a seguire troviamo un disimpegno che conduce alla camera da letto e successivamente una sala da pranzo, divisa dalla cucina, per poi finire con un bagno dotato di box doccia. Questa proprietà rappresenta un'opportunità interessante per chi desidera investire in una delle aree più dinamiche e richieste della città, con la possibilità di personalizzare gli spazi secondo le proprie esigenze.

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.
