Renovated farmhouse of 220 m² asking €670,000 → €3,045/m²; assumed renovation €0/m². Regional median for similar stock is €455/m², so this price is roughly 6.7× the baseline (likely a Lake Garda premium), making it far above the catalog’s cheap-home range.
More on the house and the area
A beautifully restored cascina with painted façade, vaulted frescoed rooms, exposed beams and a large fireplace plus a covered stone loggia and private garden — very photogenic and clearly usable as a home. Some external decoration and outbuildings need tidy-up and you should verify modern systems (bathrooms/heating) before buying.
The listing and its photos show a house you can move into. Anything you spend beyond the price is your choice, not a repair.
- Exterior frescoes and plaster show wear and will need restoration/touch‑ups.
- Wooden doors/outbuildings look weathered and may require repair.
- No photos of bathrooms or heating systems — confirm mechanicals and utilities before purchase.
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 62/100The cluster lies in the morainic hills south of Lake Garda, with a mixed landscape of low ridges, cultivated fields and built-up stretches along the Brescia–Mantova side of the plain. Lake Garda is within about 15 km at its southwestern end around Desenzano and Lonato. The Mincio river corridor is nearby to the east around the Mantova side of the Garda outlet, though not at the cluster itself. Castiglione delle Stiviere is the nearest town of size, with a substantial built-up area, services and a historic centre linked to the Gonzaga period. Solferino and San Martino della Battaglia are nearby and the area is known for the Risorgimento battlefields of 1859 and for the origins of the Red Cross. The setting is varied for the Po plain fringe but it is not one of Italy’s standout landscapes.
