About this place
Set in the picturesque Vallagarina valley, this charming two-bedroom apartment boasts a prime location in Besenello, notable for its magnificent Castel Beseno. The fortress, perched atop a hill, provides a stunning backdrop and a touch of history to the area, beautifully illuminated at night.
This duplex apartment, situated on the second and top floor of a traditional village house, was renovated around ten years ago to maintain local architectural style. The second floor features a bright living area with a fully furnished kitchen and a cosy living room, complemented by two wooden balconies that enhance the characteristic charm of Trentino architecture.
The two bedrooms are located in the attic, accessible via a lovely internal staircase with striking exposed wooden ceilings and practical skylights that flood the space with natural light. It includes two bathrooms—one on each floor—along with a convenient anteroom, cellar, and a dedicated parking space. The property also features a small shared garden plot for those who enjoy gardening, providing a green escape within this enchanting village setting.

Open in Google MapsBuying property in Italy
Italy is open to most foreign buyers under reciprocity rules (EU/EEA buyers always; non-EU buyers from countries with bilateral agreements, which covers the UK, US, Canada, Australia and most major markets). A codice fiscale is required, and a notaio handles the conveyance as a neutral public official. An independent lawyer or geometra is strongly recommended for due diligence.
The €1 home schemes in southern villages are real but come with strict renovation deadlines (typically 3 years) and security deposits.
Non-resident mortgages from Italian banks are available but limited (typically 50–60% LTV).
The prima casa (primary residence) tax rate of 2% requires you to declare residency in the same comune within 18 months of completion — failure means back-taxes plus penalties.
General guidance only — confirm specifics with a qualified local lawyer or tax adviser. Reference
