Description
LEQUILE - Proponiamo in vendita una spaziosa soluzione bifamiliare, di circa 153 mq, posta al piano primo, ideale per chi desidera vivere in un contesto tranquillo e riservato a due passi dal centro del paese ma allo stesso tempo vicino allo svincolo per la statale 101 Lecce-Gallipoli e alle uscite per le tangenziali. L'immobile si distingue per l'assoluta assenza di spese condominiali ed è caratterizzato da ambienti ampi e luminosi. Dal vano scala si accede in un accogliente ingresso dal quale, a sua volta, si accede ad un salone signorile illuminato da grandi finestre che affacciano sul balcone principale e ad una cucina abitabile separata e funzionale, perfetta per le esigenze familiari quotidiane e ad un ripostiglio/dispensa. Attraverso il corridoio si raggiungono le 3 camere da letto spaziose e i due bagni finestrati. Uno dei punti forti della proprietà è lo splendido terrazzo privato di circa 41 mq: uno spazio esterno esclusivo dove rilassarsi o organizzare momenti conviviali. Forma accessorio un ampio garage al piano terra di circa mq 40 da dove si potrebbe ricavare un accesso indipendente all'abitazione. Lequile gode di una posizione strategica nel Salento: dista pochi minuti dalla città barocca di Lecce (circa 6 km), risultando così ideale sia come residenza stabile sia come investimento immobiliare grazie alla vicinanza alle più belle spiagge ioniche salentine.

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.
