At €400/m², the asking price is slightly below the €420/m² level for comparable Lombardy country homes, and the house is described as immediately habitable with a rebuilt roof and floors. The remote 87-resident mountain setting limits location value, while the barn, garden and extra land add useful ownership value.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely usable, furnished three-bedroom village home with a working kitchen, bathroom, finished floors, and a renewed roof and slabs. Its appeal comes from the weathered stone-borgo character, balcony, and traditional furniture rather than polished beauty or dramatic views; the attached outbuildings need substantial work.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€5,000 – €8,000
Wiring, water and sanitary work of any kind, heating, air conditioning and gas go to a registered firm by law, and so do flues and the air openings for gas appliances. That labour stays in the bill. Yours is the stripping out, plaster, paint, floors, tiling and carpentry.
Labour is 61% of a renovation price on average and 67% at the median, across 191 items of the Emilia-Romagna 2025 public price list. Materials are the rest. An averaged price list, not a quote.
Materials you buy yourself carry 22% VAT; supplied by the firm doing the work they go at the 10% renovation rate. On a €30,000 materials bill that is €3,600 of extra tax.
Household wiring installed before 13 March 1990 counts as compliant if it has a main breaker with overcurrent protection, protection against direct contact and a 30 mA RCD. Having a firm bring the existing wiring up to that and certify it is the cheapest lawful route.
- Very dated interiors and furnishings, though the home appears usable immediately.
- The attached stable/hayloft is a raw utility space rather than finished living area.
- Energy class G; no strong mountain view or particularly scenic outdoor space is visible in the gallery.
Estimate from the listing and its photos, not a survey. Treat it as the starting point for your own quotes. An Italian builder's quote is normally written without VAT and without design fees, so add about a quarter to any figure a firm gives you.
The area around
Location score 72/100The cluster is in the upper Val Brembana in the Bergamo Alps. The Brembo river runs through the valley. The Orobie Bergamasche Regional Park lies nearby on the mountain slopes above the valley. The nearest ski area is San Simone in the upper valley, about 25 minutes by road, with larger lifts at Foppolo and Carona farther up the same valley. San Pellegrino Terme is the nearest town of note down the valley, with its Liberty-era spa buildings, and Bergamo is the main city reached farther south. The area is known for alpine valley settlements, woodland and pasture, and for access to the Orobie trails and passes.
