Description
Nella splendida cornice di Riva Ligure, comoda a tutti i servizi ed alla pista ciclabile che attraversa il nostro litorale da Imperia a Ospedaletti, moderna abitazione di lusso disposta su tre livelli con affaccio diretto sul mare. Al piano terra un disimpegno con una comoda scala in legno ci conduce direttamente al piano superiore dove veniamo accolti da un luminoso open space dal gusto moderno e di design. Un ampio piano cottura con isola in marmo, piastre a induzione e cappa integrata, danno armonia alla stanza, mentre gli elettrodomestici sono tutti a scomparsa. Le linee essenziali della cucina e la scelta di finiture dalle tonalità chiare donano all'ambiente armonia ed eleganza. Un salottino moderno, arredato con cura per i dettagli, un camino al bioetanolo ed un'ampia vetrata da terra al soffitto, che attira la nostra attenzione all'esterno, sulla terrazza vivibile fronte mare. Un'altra grande vetrata a scrigno ci conduce invece alla prima camera matrimoniale con bagno in suite e doccia walk in, nonché una capiente cabina armadio che incarna un equilibrio tra funzionalità ed estetica. Raggiungiamo il secondo piano e troviamo un ampio open space suddiviso tra sala da pranzo con un grande tavolo e un mobile bar dal design moderno, perfetto per vivere la quotidianità e accogliere ospiti in un'atmosfera accogliente e conviviale, ed un salotto con un comodo divano angolare e un caminetto al bioetanolo dalle linee moderne che conferisce fascino e calore a tutto l'ambiente.

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.
