What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €358/m², the €39,000 asking price is slightly below the €380/m² Lombardy baseline, but the farmhouse condition is unspecified and a rustic property likely needs substantial work. Using an estimated €700/m² renovation cost gives an effective cost of about €1,058/m², partly offset by the 5,000 m² of land and proximity to Villa Carcina.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely atmospheric Lombardy farmhouse with sweeping green mountain-valley views, grapevines, terraces, mature greenery, and more than 5,000 square meters of land. The house is roofed, furnished, and has usable rooms, exposed stone, timber beams, and a fireplace, but it is dated and rough rather than move-in polished.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€21,000 – €38,000
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.
- The property is visibly rustic and would need substantial cosmetic refreshing, especially outdoors.
- Only one bathroom is listed, and the kitchen/utilities are not clearly shown.
- Sloping land, terraces, and likely access constraints may require ongoing maintenance.
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 61/100The cluster lies in Val Trompia, with the Prealpi Bresciane rising immediately around the built-up valley floor. The Mella river runs through the valley. Monte Guglielmo and the ridge system above the valley are the main mountain backdrop in this part of the province. The area is close to the Brescia hills and to Lake Iseo beyond them, but the lake is outside the 15 km landscape. Bovegno and the upper Val Trompia ski area at Maniva are farther up the valley and are a substantial drive rather than local lifts. Brescia is the nearest city of size, with full services, major monuments and rail connections. The valley is known for metalworking and firearms manufacture, with the Beretta works in Gardone Val Trompia.
