At €966/m², this 87 m² farmhouse is about 93% above the local €500/m² benchmark, so the €84,000 price is not especially competitive even with a pool and terrace. The description suggests it is well cared for, but it does not clearly state the condition, construction year, or energy performance.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable, furnished stone farmhouse with exposed beams, terracotta floors, a working kitchen and bathroom, and strong rustic character. The rooftop terrace delivers an exceptional panorama over the Ligurian mountain valleys, while the surrounding stone-village setting adds real atmosphere rather than just photographic appeal.
The listing and its photos show a house you can move into. Anything you spend beyond the price is your choice, not a repair.
- Access appears to be through narrow historic-borgo lanes, potentially limiting car access.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a three-bedroom home.
- Roof, utilities, and legal compliance are not documented in the supplied facts.
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 sits in the upper Arroscia valley in the Ligurian Alps, with wooded slopes and mountain ridges immediately around it. The Arroscia river runs through this inland valley system. The Ligurian Alps Regional Park lies nearby around Monte Saccarello and the Nava area. The nearest ski area is Monesi, roughly a 35–45 minute drive depending on the exact hamlet and road conditions. Pieve di Teco is the nearest small centre with everyday shops and services, and Imperia on the coast is the nearest larger town with a fuller range of services. This part of western Liguria is known for mountain villages, olive cultivation lower down the valley, and road access toward Colle di Nava and the French border valleys.
