Description
A San Felice, in contesto tranquillo e ben servito, proponiamo villa indipendente disposta su due piani, caratterizzata da ampie metrature e da interessanti potenzialità di sviluppo. Al piano terra si trova un appartamento trilocale di circa 95 mq, completamente ristrutturato, composto da ambienti moderni e funzionali e valorizzato da un portico, ideale come spazio esterno vivibile. Al primo piano è presente un appartamento quadrilocale di circa 130 mq, con cucina abitabile, attualmente non ristrutturato, che offre la possibilità di personalizzazione secondo le proprie esigenze, sia in ottica abitativa sia di investimento. È prevista la possibilità di realizzare un ampliamento di circa 150 metri cubi, da accorpare all'edificio principale, aumentando in modo significativo la superficie abitativa. Inoltre, è presente una struttura accessoria esistente di circa 23 mq che può essere demolita, con la possibilità di recuperare e integrare la relativa metratura edificabile nel corpo principale della villa, incrementandone ulteriormente le potenzialità e il valore complessivo. La soluzione si presta perfettamente sia come abitazione unifamiliare di ampia metratura, sia come villa bifamiliare o come operazione di valorizzazione edilizia, grazie alla presenza di due unità già distinte e alle concrete possibilità di ampliamento.
Living in San Felice del Benaco
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.
