Effervescent, tireless, always projected towards the future: this is Milan, the Italian city that never sleeps, full of charm and with an eclectic soul. And the real estate market of the Lombardy capital is also constantly thriving, poised between historic neighborhoods undergoing renovation and ever-new trendy areas. If you're looking for ideas on where to buy a house in Milan, this article will provide some suggestions on the ten neighborhoods to consider for an excellent real estate investment in 2020.
1. Near the stops on the new M4 blue line
The M4 line of the Milan metro will connect the San Cristoforo station, on the Naviglio Grande, with Linate Airport. A long and complex route, which passes through some very central areas like San Babila and Sant'Ambrogio, and other newly redeveloped areas like Forlanini. A route full of excellent real estate opportunities, with one certainty: the value of homes will increase as soon as the metro is inaugurated.
2. In the Forlanini neighborhood
Among the most interesting areas to buy a house in Milan is the area around Viale Forlanini. Not far from the city center and at the same time surrounded by greenery, the neighborhood has been under development for a few years and will become even more trendy with the M4.
3. In the Tre Torri area
The three skyscrapers built near Portello have quickly established themselves as one of the 21st-century symbols of the city of Milan. With the inauguration in 2019 of the Libeskind tower – the last of the three buildings – the neighborhood has seen a further surge in demand for apartments. This is thanks to the City Life complex, a luxury shopping center that attracts tourists from all over the world, and the many green areas. A perfect area to find a small apartment to furnish according to our advice before putting it up for rent
4. Near the Dateo station
A few steps from the Risorgimento area, the area around the station and Piazzale Dateo is already renowned and chic, both as a residential option and for the numerous restaurants and clubs that liven up the nightlife. In the coming years, it should see further revaluation thanks to the inauguration of the M4 stop, which will make the station a true interport for those who need to reach the city center in just a few minutes.
5. In the brand-new Santagiulia neighborhood
Santagiulia is certainly one of the most interesting areas to buy a house in Milan in 2020. Brand new, the area is part of a larger plan for the urban redevelopment of the southeastern quadrant of the city. The project guidelines include great attention to the environment, with buildings equipped with APE energy certifications and with an eye on the most innovative technologies.
6. Close to the university districts
Milan's universities attract students from all over Italy and the world every year. An apartment near the Catholic University or in the Bocconi area represents an excellent investment both for temporary rentals for out-of-towners and for central and prestigious housing solutions.
Even the Polytechnic area, not far from Porta Venezia, continues to grow in value on the market.
7. In the Ripamonti – Vigentino area
The southern area of Milan is the one that has seen the greatest redevelopment in recent years. In particular, the area crossed by Viale Ripamonti, which includes the Vigentino neighborhood, saw the price of properties for sale increase by 7.5% in the last half of 2019.
8. In the Greco neighborhood
We cross the city completely and arrive in the north, in the Greco neighborhood, not far from Bicocca University and the Central Station. This is another rapidly developing area, with a clear residential vocation, perfect for families and workers who want to live close to the center but away from the chaos.
9. In Baggio, halfway between city and village
On the western outskirts we find Baggio, a place completely different from the modern and innovative image of the Lombard city. Until 1923, Baggio was a country village that over time was incorporated into the metropolis. Even today, the neighborhood retains a rural, calm and peaceful charm, characterized by the colorful majolica tiles hanging on the walls that tell the story of the old town.
10. In the Isola and Porta Nuova neighborhoods, the heart of the new Milan
The areas around Isola and Porta Nuova are among the most sought-after for their concentration of offices, professional studios, and trendy aperitif and dinner venues. One of the quadrants that best represents the spirit of Milan in the new millennium, among the most sought-after on the real estate market and therefore perfect for a prestigious investment.
