Description
'And to Padua I came, as one who leaves a pond to dive into the sea'. This is how William Shakespeare describes his visit to the beautiful city of Padua, and it is no coincidence that Petrarch, Donatello, Galilei, Ippolito Nievo, Mantegna, Palladio and other illustrious personalities of Italian art, science and culture lived in Padua. A cultured, rich and devout city, you will easily realise this by visiting its most famous attractions. After a stroll through the famous arcades of the centre, you will realise that it is also a city of enjoyment when you take a well-deserved break at spritz time. Our rendezvous can only be in one of the many places where you can enjoy a red aperitif before visiting this practical three-room apartment in the San Carlo area, a short distance from the motorway exit and one of the city's main arteries, Via del Plebiscito. We are in Via Benedetti, a residential area with small to medium-sized buildings, lots of greenery, plenty of parking and all services and schools within walking distance. Here on the first floor of a five-storey building we find the spacious flat ready to be lived in immediately. We are greeted by a large equipped entrance hall that divides the living area from the sleeping area; the first is composed of a single room with an open kitchen and double overlooking the balcony facing south-west through two French windows that thus guarantee natural lighting all day long. The sleeping area comprises two bedrooms, one single and one double, and the windowed bathroom with shower. Ready to be lived in because, as you will see, all the renovation work has already been done, both external (PVC) and internal (whitened oak wooden doors), flooring (wood-effect laminate and ceramic strips for the bathroom) and air conditioning with the added convenience of a furnished kitchen and a convenient garage at street level with access from the communal courtyard. Hurry up because this flat deserves your attention!

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in Italy will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £4,343 more.
