(CNN) Looking for a holiday gift but still not found the perfect one? Here s a last-minute idea: a home in Italy, yours for less than the price of a cup of coffee.
Yes, another month, another set of idyllic Italian village cottages up for sale and yes, it s all part of the bid to breathe new life into remote rural locations that have been quietly dying off.
However, if you re used to the usual model town authorities wanting to attract new residents and offering cut-price houses or subsidized living to entice them this is a little different.
