REGIONAL INFORMATION FOR ITALY
Intro:
The fifth
most-visited tourist destination according to the
World Tourism Organisation, Italy has long been a
favourite with UK buyers. With over 133 airports,
more and more regions are being discovered by
'tourist investors'. While people have traditionally
bought for lifestyle, emerging regions like Calabria
(in the toe of the Italian 'boot') are attracting
investors as well as holiday home buyers. Also in
the south, the Puglia region is seeing an upsurge in
interest from the UK.
However, the more
established markets of Tuscany and Umbria are still
fairly evenly divided between those looking for a
holiday home and those looking to move permanently.
These regions offer a strong holiday rental market,
with seasons from Easter to September, and healthy
price increases.
TUSCANY
At its best, Tuscany is still to be found at
doorsteps of the traditionally built, stone and
timber apartments and villas of the new Borgo di
Haiole development. It is situated 20 minutes drive
from the beautiful medieval city of Siena (the
birthplace of the Italian mother tongue) and on the
edge of the bustling Chianti village of Gailoe -
with its shops, coffee houses, banks and
unforgettable food and wine. Only 40 minutes from
Florence and 90 minutes from Pisa, there's a
remarkable Chianti winery conversion at San Sano
that will supply you with wine.
