Description

Rif:GR - GR (126395001) - Il Gruppo Ricercato Immobiliare ha il piacere di proporre in esclusiva una graziosa villetta a 50m dal mare, precisamente nella marina leccese di Torre Chianca. La soluzione proposta è completamente autonoma, libera su tre lati con la possibilità di godere di questo ampio spazio all'aperto dove trascorrere piacevoli serate d'estate. Nello specifico l'immobile risulta essere una costruzione anni 70 e necessita di una ristrutturazione generale. La metratura interna è di 110mq commerciali, presentando una spaziosa veranda, accesso all'immobile nel soggiorno/pranzo, un cucinotto disimpegnato, bagno finestrato e due ampie camere da letto. Il giardino, di circa 200mq, è stato concepito con l'idea di poter trascorrere del tempo all'esterno, motivo per il quale si presta bene per ricreare un'area barbecue, una zona pranzo ed un area relax all'esterno. A completare la proprietà un box auto di 20mq presente nel giardino retrostante. L'abitazione non presenta l'allaccio all'acquedotto, ma lo stesso è stato già richiesto e verrà ricreato a breve. E' presente fogna imhoff, mentre non vi è l'allaccio alla rete pubblica del gas/metano. Ottima soluzione per una famiglia alla ricerca di un'abitazione fronte mare dove poter godere a pieno delle lunghe giornate estive senza doversi spostare in auto. Inoltre, l'immobile si presta benissimo come uso investimento data anche la vicinanza alla spiaggia ed essendo Torre Chianca una marina amata anche dai turisti.

Living in Lecce

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.

Key Fact

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.

1

Understand the buying rules

Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.

2

Sort out your visa

Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.

3

Plan your finances

Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.

4

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.

5

Set up healthcare

Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.

6

Run the full checklist

Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
