At €88,000 for 280 m², this fully renovation-dependent property has an estimated effective cost of about €1,414/m², far above the local €300/m² reference. The extensive storage areas, attic conversion subject to planning approval, zero listed bathrooms, and unspecified feasibility make the large floor area less valuable than it appears.
More on the house and the area
This is a highly characterful historic farmhouse with beautiful exposed stone, timber balconies, vaulted rooms, a garden, and impressive mountain views. However, it is a major restoration project rather than a usable home: interiors are unfinished, there are no bathrooms, and parts of the roof and structure appear seriously compromised.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€111,000 – €164,000
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.
- Completely renovation-dependent, with no bathrooms shown or listed.
- Major structural and roof work appears necessary; some roof areas are open or severely deteriorated.
- The property is currently not habitable and renovation feasibility, utilities, and permissions require verification.
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 72/100Pergine Valsugana sits in the Valsugana valley on the Brenta river, at the foot of the Lagorai mountain chain. Lago di Caldonazzo and Lago di Levico are within about 5–10 km of the town. Local ski lifts operate on Monte Panarotta (the Panarotta resort is on the southern side of the valley). The spa town of Levico Terme, with thermal baths and tourist accommodation, is adjacent in the same valley. The provincial capital Trento is the nearest city of size (roughly 15–20 km to the west) and provides a university, main hospital and regional rail connections. The Valsugana is crossed by the ciclabile Valsugana cycling route that links the valley and the lakeshores. The local economy combines agriculture, light industry and mountain/outdoor tourism with hiking in summer and small-scale skiing in winter.
