The Italian Collection

“The Italian Collection” is a portfolio of selected Italian properties available from Cresta Villas, our family run overseas property consultancy. Although we sell property internationally, our real passion is for Italy and everything Italian; the lifestyle, culture and people and most of all the beauty and diversity of the country. For this reason we decided to feature our rapidly growing collection of Italian property on its own specially dedicated website.

Purchasing an Italian property can be a great investment; the market is a steady and reliable performer. Italy is perceived as an exclusive and expensive location in which to own a property, and it is this air of exclusivity which sets it apart from almost all other countries, and which makes it so desirable. This has meant high property values, especially in areas such as Tuscany and the north, so for many people owning a home in Italy might seem just a dream, but there are affordable options; if the Toscana coast is above budget then consider Calabria in the south, or if Lake Como and Lake Garda seem out of reach, then look at lesser known Lake Iseo.

Our Italian property collection brings you a choice of homes and locations, both north and south. The search facility includes Italian property in; Lombardy and the Lakes, Tuscany, Umbria, Campania, Lazio, Calabria, Puglia and Sardinia, and although we specialise in, and feature greatly, Calabria and also Tuscany, we will eventually introduce property in areas such as; Basilicata, Molise, Abruzzo, Marche, Veneto, Piedmont, Liguria, Emilia Romagna and Sicily.

Within our home search you will find; new properties selling “off-plan” at lower prices than if they were ready built, new property under construction, plus resale homes ready to move into. You also find different kinds of locations; close to the beach in coastal resorts, inland, countryside, towns and villages. For something really special; we have apartments in converted and restored historic palazzo, castles and convents, as well as villas, houses and apartments in farmhouses and restored hamlets.

Wherever you are looking for, be it coastal or inland, a villa, townhouse, village house for restoration, a studio or new apartment. Whatever your reason for purchasing; relocation, retirement, investment or a family holiday home, “The Italian Collection” is an excellent place to begin your search.
