With a timeless beauty and quality of life that is celebrated throughout the world, Tuscany beckons to those discerning international buyers who long for a share of one of the world’s most attractive real estate markets.
It is clear why Tuscany real estate is a perennial favourite with international buyers. It simply offers the best of everything: a mild Mediterranean climate, breathtaking natural splendour, magnificent architecture and art treasures, world-renowned wines, incredible cuisine and, at every turn, spectacular medieval hill towns with fortified castle walls and charming church steeples. Add to that the shopping, the dining and the culture, and it is a package no one can ignore.
In recent years American buyers had dwindled but now, they are beginning to return to Tuscany. Drawn by the favourable currency rate of the USD vis a vis the euro, plus attractive real estate prices, they are coming back to a place they clearly already adored. Interest has also picked up amongst UK buyers, plus those from Scandinavia, Germany, Switzerland and the Benelux countries.
