Nella parte centrale dell'Isola d'Elba a pochi passi dalla suggestiva baia di Portoferraio, situata a metà strada tra Portoferraio e Porto Azzurro, ed a ridosso del Monte Fabbrello con vista mare verso il Golfo di Portoferraio, troviamo immersa nel verde una graziosa Villetta su due piani circondata da una tenuta privata esclusiva di circa mq. 8000 completamente recintata, con pineta ed arricchita con palme , eucalipti e stupendi cedri del libano. La proprietà internamente si suddivide in quattro bilocali indipendenti su due livelli, di cui tre a piano terra ed uno al primo piano con terrazza a tasca, in una unità catastale unica. Esternamente la proprietà gode di un esclusivo parco con vista , e dal primo piano e dalla terrazza con loggiato del piano terra si può vedere la baia di Portoferraio.

La proprietà dista meno di 1000 metri in linea d'aria dal grande Parco acquatico in fase di ultimazione, uno dei più grandi in europa, che valorizzerà moltissimo la zona a livello turi
Living in Portoferraio
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.
