homes in italy
What comes into your mind when you think of Italy? Close your eyes and imagine.
Your first thoughts may be of food and wine, and who could blame you. This is a place where talking about food is an art form. Everyone has a recipe to share, a wine to recommend, a restaurant that serves only the very best local speciality. And believe me, Italy is a very ‘local’ place. There is even a term for it - ‘campanilismo’ - literally attachment to the area immediately surrounding your nearest ‘campanile’ or bell tower. For complex reasons, which include medieval battles, familial ties and ancient loyalties, you find people who are passionately loyal to their village, town or city, (or maybe even just a part of their city) and they won’t even consider buying produce from a neighbouring area.
Perhaps you’re thinking about Italy’s unrivalled cultural heritage? It’s hard to travel anywhere in the country without bumping into something remarkable. And it has to be in the blood, because the place that gave the world the Romans, the Etruscans, Francis of Assisi, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo has also given us Ferrari, Lamborgini, Fellini, Valentino and Versace…
Or is it the landscape? Perhaps you’re in love with the cypress-studded slopes of Tuscany, or the gentle green Umbrian hills dotted with farmhouses? Perhaps the spectacular sparkling white city of Lecce in Puglia has stolen your heart, or maybe the beaches of Sardinia, the mountains of Piemonte, the art cities of Florence, Siena, Rome. And we haven’t mentioned Venice yet, La Serenissima, city of mists, water and mystery...
There’s something for everyone, which is why so many people have chosen to buy dream homes in Italy. And we want to help you every step of the way.
Our Service
We specialise in exclusive, luxury properties in Italy. Our head office is in Siena in Tuscany (located next to the Campo where the palio is held) and obviously we know the Tuscany and Umbria regions inside out. But please don’t think that beautiful homes are only located in Tuscany and Umbria, although they are probably the most well-known of Italy’s 20 regions. We have access to the best properties throughout Italy, many of which are not even advertised on the open market.
We provide a service second to none and can simplify the business of buying a property in Italy, organising everything from drawing up a short list of properties to view to decorating and furnishing. Our English and Italian staff give exceptional service.
So please take your time to explore the beautiful properties on the next few pages and then get in touch.
Let the dream begin.
