About this place
Discover this magnificent six-bedroom rustic house in the heart of Gonzaga, a picturesque rural town nestled in the Po Valley, halfway between Mantua and Reggio Emilia. This property boasts an impressive, finely renovated two-storey clay brick house, distinguished by its petrol green shutters and a charming pedestrian entrance flanked by vibrant hydrangeas. The welcoming double-leaf wooden door opens into a reception area filled with natural light.
The ground floor is cleverly designed as a B&B, offering spacious rooms equipped with en suite bathrooms, fireplaces, and a generous kitchen area. Ascend the internal staircase to find a master apartment on the first floor, which includes three large bedrooms, a warm kitchen at its heart, and two cosy living rooms featuring antique terracotta stoves from the early twentieth century.
An attic space invites your imagination for further development, providing flexibility for various uses. Surrounding the main farmhouse, you'll find three additional buildings, including a two-storey structure suitable for annexes or residential units, an old dovecote, and a storage facility. With boundless potential for transformation, this property stands ready to become a restaurant, an expanded B&B, or even a workshop, making it a perfect countryside retreat for those seeking to blend rural elegance with modern living.

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
