Affordable Real Estate in Italy

Where is Next Tuscany?

Marche is on the same latitude as Tuscany and Umbria but has lived a separated life for many centuries as it was historically and geographically isolated. This region is divided from the west coast by the Apennines mountains and from the sixteenth to the end of the nineteenth century was ruled by the Pope. The Vatican rule kept the region underdeveloped but beautifully preserved the many medieval towns.

Thanks to this peculiarities the prices of Italian real estate here are more affordable and the landscape is still unspoiled.
