The diagram is such a great addition.
Renovate - No. Restore - YES! This place is amazing!!
I don’t think I’d bother adding any bathrooms or any thing major except for we both love to cook, and this would have a huge kitchen with big prep areas. And of course a smoker for brisket because you can take the Texan out of Texas but you can’t take the Texas out of a Texan…! 🤣🤣🥳
Thank you! This would be a wonderful concert hall street level…
That is a phenomenal house. I would love to live in it just the way it is just clean out the clutter.! I’m 62 and single I just need to find someone to share the beauty of this place with!
That is a very beautiful and classic place. It has been taken care very well, no matter how old it's. That is one thing that a appreciate front Italians. Wow! I really like it. It's a piece of art.
Walking through homes and imagining all the different things you can do to them is so much fun. Thank you.
Your welcome! I wish I could do more projects.
Lovely, just what I think of when I think of Italy! Grazie!
I'd move my wife, children and grandchildren in all together. Plenty of space for everyone. Family dinners and parties year round! And room for our chows! One of my favorites!
Glad you liked it! I’ll keep digging up gems!
Wow wow wow! I’ve never seen anything like this place in my life - such an intensely beautiful place. ❤
You find such gems Brad. If only I had the money I’d buy this place without question. The terraces and gardens for me and my pets and the huge windows and gorgeous frescos woweeee!! Keep up the good work
The trick is finding a place it’s the appropriate size for a single investor, something that’s 2 to 4000 ft.² for around $100,000. They do exist! I have a viewer that’s buying one of the Palazzo apartments I showed about six weeks ago. That one was really cool with great views and was only €120,000.
Incredible actually.
Hi Brad. I like the pop up plan as you walk through the palazzo tour. The place is truly amazing and I agree that it would be a easy renovation with so much space to store materials plus enough rooms to live in whilst working on remodelling & modernisation.
The upstairs studio would be my choice for the master bedroom . Many thanks for uploading your videos.
Thanks for the comment! I will fine tune the pop up plan. It was my first try. Needed on a monster like this.
THANK YOU 🎉
The upper great room with the center fireplace in it that would be my master bedroom!!!
Then you WOULD find someone to share it with. That’d be bad ass! And there are lots of single people in Italy. Branch out!
Any prospects?!❤
Bonus points for the floorplan and the X factor 😉 Thank you for sharing these phenomenal spaces with us!
Thanks! Having my morning caffeine as I write this about to drive 2 hours up to Lucca to do tours. One is a 600MQ (6000 Sq Ft) villa that seems to be in perfect shape. I’ll need the floor plan for that for sure!
Wow 🤩 this is absolutely amazing! 🎉 I would turn it into a Wellness Retreat Center. ❤
Très beau !
The first thing that I thought of with a place the size of this was a Bed & Breakfast. There are not many families that are large enough to make this property work so hosting people is a natural for it. These video tours are great! Thanks Brad... 👍
You’re very welcome! I love getting out and seeing new towns and making these videos.
I know a guy here in Tuscany that moved from California and does some sort of holistic health and his wife is a yoga instructor. That’s the kind of people I think of when I think of these places, they could find a good use for all that space. When you think about it, it’s less expensive than getting some industrial space somewhere. Plus you can help people. So many things you could do.
Bed and breakfast.
@@anneschantl8929 That's what I get for dictating but it's my first spelling mistake all year! 🤣
Just enough space for my family!
Amazing!
Wow wow. What a beauty. I would keep the main floor and the garden. Then create an apartment on the top floor and an apartment in the basement. The sale of those 2 apartments would pay for the property purchase and renovation of the main floor section.
Its an amazing property, with so much potential. Love it.
Glad you liked it. I would love to do a garden like that. Stonework, new appropriate plants, flowers. And there is a well to keep it all healthy!!
Thanks brad
Stunning!
It really is!
Excellent property!
I agree, a nice pottery studio
Cool interior paintings
Like the little map of the house, makes it very clear where you are.
Thanks! I’ll get it refined somehow. Worth the time I think in these big properties. Maybe on the smaller ones I’ll just do it upfront and show the route. We’re going to take so people have an idea of the layout before hand. Are usually walk a property before I film it just so I know how the flow is, that would be fair for you guys to to know more or less how it’s laid out and then it’ll make sense when you see it. I’m still learning…. My videos will get better and better!
It's absolutely fabulous.
Yep! I’m back in that general area today doing a different hilltop town, and also a video about why, although they look abandon in these videos, these are actually Vibrant areas even if the little village itself it’s just a bedroom community. Thanks for watching!!
Thank you very much
This is really cool.
Big House-Little Money
This is absolutely fabulous and looks like it would be fun to work on!
I think so! Just going room by room with the kitchen being the first stop. In my book that’s most important.
I do like your plans on the video. It makes it easy to orientate oneself. Please keep it up.
💪🏼. Thanks for the input. In the big ones I will make them.
Oh the stories these walls have witnessed. The lives born and departed within this home. The history in each stroke of the paint brush. The value with each piece of furniture. This whole property is a gem!
Couldn’t have said it better myself. And I mean that literally. 😅
Speechless
A palace? Can’t wait to see this one
You literally will shake your head and say how is this possible.
Love your sense of hummer. Thanks for the laugh. Tim of Tim and Deb
No problem. Artist thing just stuck in my head, figured you wouldn’t mind a joking shout out. Too bad it’s all not one level, but that would’ve taken up the whole town!
Wonderful property! What a gem! Heating bills will kill you.
January and February are the months you would have to really worry about heating. In those months the average low temperature is around 35° with an average high temperature of 55°. But I don’t think I would ever try to install the whole house heating system, especially with the wait temperature. Trends are going up and probably will continue to go out for our lifetime. I think I would do zoned heating and cooling in the most important parts of the house, and of course, any rooms that have water like bathrooms and kitchen. That can be done very economically using split systems. I think it would be virtually impossible to add a whole house, heating system, and again probably not necessary.
Thanks for bringing up a good point, and commenting! -Brad
Worth it just for the view and the garden area
Easy to get jaded in these hilltop towns and those views… they are everywhere!
Its so interesting to see these videos and they are houses i've also looked at during my search for the right place to buy.
Thanks! I’ll be back in this area soon. The nightlife is good and the big towns nearby have everything.
A dream home for sure.
And now in the hands of new owners. All of these big palaces are selling very quickly.
Hi Brad! I would use that room for a gigantic library with tables to play games and do puzzles. ❤😂🎉 Amy from MN
Diagram is very helpful. Thanks
Good to hear!
With plumbing, ALWAYS check the pressure coming out. Try to fill the basin, then see how it drains.
Another amazing property, yes it needs work but the potential would be incredible.
What a fantastic property, if I was 30 years younger I would be seriously interested. The garden area and the view, you couldn’t find better and what value. I am selling a one bed apartment in UK for just under £300,000
you can do it---age matters little
Very, very helpful to add the floor diagrams!
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing property, what am I saying, what an amazing palace! Thank you for exposing us to such a treasure❤
Glad you enjoyed it! BRAD
Awesome ❤😅😊❤
Thanks 🥳
Hi Brad, my first time on your channel. The upstairs artist room. I think I would turn it into a master bedroom suite. Fabulous property
Welcome to the Party! Thanks for watching.
Yeah that would be a nice big bedroom!
Lots more cool places coming up to see. Thanks again for joining me.
Wow ❤
Thanks for talking about access to public transportation.
You’re welcome! Even though I have a car here, there’s something liberating about being able to just get on the train, and go somewhere and not have to worry about driving, and parking. And after being pummeled by tangerine size hail, this summer near Venice, I’m quite happy to leave my car in the garage. It was a total wreck, we got caught on the super highway with 1000 other cars.
Tim the artist and wife Deb would be nuts if we took on a project this huge at our age! But thanks for thinking of us!
I know…. Just a thought. 😘
The diagram is very helpful to orientate one’s self.
Glad you liked it.
Beautiful property. I have notice that in certain rooms the cellings are double with pieces of wood meaning that the original celling are curb and cad advence with time....
Quite a property, Brad, you come up with some cool stuff. Definitely needs updating of kitchens, baths, apparent issues with water damaged ceilings, therefore water integrity of a very large roof and supporting framing (dry rot). Also, did not notice sources of heat/AC, would probably need to add as well as boiler upgrades on a zone basis. Love the large open apartment down below, could be a great space.
I need to put a lot more thought into the heating and cooling issues in these places. If it was mine, I would do some zoned split systems or some thing similar where you can go and put one heat transfer outside that can cover two or three mechanicals inside and cover numerous bedrooms. That’s more for comfortable sleeping in the hotter months. It’s nice that it’s a hilltop town because the breezes are great. I’m more worried about cooling in the summer than I am about trying to heat the whole place in the winter. There’s only about eight weeks where it gets possibly in the 30s occasionally. I don’t think I would bother trying to put in a whole house system.
Not too many long range forecast are calling for things to cool down over the next 50 years… Not sure heating would be the focus. Yes I definitely think zoned heating and cooling would be the way to go. Whole house, boiler systems or a relic, and would be virtually impossible to install in a place like this.
The next time I do a video on one of these big places, I’ll try to show the nuts and bolts of the mechanicals and we can talk a little bit about the subject. Thanks for the great Comment!
That roof is a sieve, surprised you said no big deal. All new tiles or buying old super expensive matching tiles to the ones that can be reused. All new sub roof, replacing rotted trusses, inner ceiling moldy and need replacement. What are we talking about $150k?
The broker Claudia could give someone more in-depth details on the condition of the roof. I just said that after looking at hundreds of properties, the amount of water damage inside, made me think that any leakage was no big deal. On a place this size, if you could truly get everything fixed up structurally for €150,000, that would also be no big deal in my book. That’s only €10 per square foot.
Where I live in Southern Tuscany rule of thumb for complete remodels is €200 per square foot or €2000 per square meter. My biggest project to date cost me €500 per square meter but that included four bathrooms, a new kitchen and totally new flooring throughout plus he historically correct paint job on the whole place and some furniture.
If I was to buy this massive palace, after having it run through with stringent engineering and examination, of course, I would concentrate on that kitchen and the bathrooms. To keep it historically, correct I don’t think there was much else to do besides bringing back the gardens, maybe adding that pool, And possibly redoing some of the wall surfaces with something more appropriate like CALCE treatment
Next time I do a big place like this, I’ll try to put a little more emphasis on the structural and mechanical aspects. Although most people just want to see the pretty rooms, these things are super important. I try not to bore my audience, but it sounds like there’s interest in the nuts and bolts. Thanks a lot for watching and commenting! Next time will take a deep dive!!
-Brad
I wonder if anybody bought this house?
Almost all roofs have water damage, which means that the entire roof would have to be renewed, which would cost a huge amount. Therefore, it is sold at this price...
But if you have money, of course it's a beautiful palace. I would like to live there. So many nice details. And a lot of nice furniture. I would get crystal chandeliers for all the rooms.
There would be no wine cellar because I hate wine. And the bottles have not been stored correctly, oxygen has gotten into them, so just throw them away...
But maybe a smaller swimming pool outside? And plant fruit trees and such in the small garden. All previously belonged land areas have apparently completely been sold off.
I wonder what would the property tax be? Surely insane
You’ve outdone yourself with that one. My wife and I are headed to three regions to scope out property in April. Thanks for all the insight.
You are welcome!
I've reached out to claudia. Is this home sold?@@BradsWorld
Woah that's a great place..and the views are unreal. I'm on the northernmost tip of New York State, on the border of Canada, and I have dreamt of living in a place like this..if I could only be so fortunate lol Ty for the great videos, they keep my dream alive..until I hit the Lotto haha
You are welcome! Keep dreaming. Thanks for watching!
Great video. Diagrams are great. I just part of a palazzo in ragusa, sicilia. I love it so much that I’m looking for a second house. The only problem is that I can’t stop eating!
Yeah I hear that! And like you I’m in wine central. That can really put on the pounds. But like Drake says “I’m not here for a long time, I’m here for a GOOD time!”
Even my wine guys here in Montepulciano say that Sicilian wine is tops. And affordable. And the food is awesome. I’m getting there soon!!
I make quilts and the large room up top would be a perfect area to do the whole quilting process including a big quilting machine. I would be so happy. Could even run classes.
Yes you could!
The current owners live very simply, and it could be costly to bring the home up to standard. While it is a bargain by Italian prices, the cost to renovate might run as high as the purchase price or more. Not today; sorry. The building is, however, intriguing. In Europe, learn to look up! The views are spectacular!
amazing! Definitely looks like some roof leaks but otherwise I love it all!
It was an amazing place for the price. I have another one like this coming up in about 3 to 4 weeks. I also filmed a great 2000 square-foot three unit apartment building in Arpino yesterday. It was only €79,000 asking price. And it has a rooftop Level, big garden and a seating area.
That palace would make a great hostel.
beautiful palace, this is actually my dream to have a big artist/painter's room and separate apartment for my sisters. I don't want to live alone here, but I got 3 nephews, 2 sisters and a daughter to share this with.
Sounds like a plan!
An artist retreat, with that big top room as the classroom.
Exactly! And I wish I could’ve had a place like this back when I had my import business. I used to sell small, imported, handmade artifacts from Mexico and Indonesia. I would’ve loved to of had this much space to sort everything and pull orders do photography and the office, etc. I just rolled out of bed in the morning and start working, it would’ve been a great sanctuary.
To be honest, I would consider touching the walls in someway maybe leaving one, but there’s a point when too much painting on the walls is overwhelming and needs to be removed because it’s just painting on the wall
Just found your channel and I am so thrilled seeing this Palace. It's a piece of history that lives on.. I have a few ideas on what I would do with the palace.. I would spruce it up some and turn it into a wedding venue. What bride won't want to get married in a palace? OR Another idea would me have a B&B with a whodunit twist. Let the guess join in and play out the part.. There are enough rooms to stage a murder scene. Now all I have to do is by the place.. This place is spectacular.
Glad you liked it! It is good to remember that most renovations involve rooms with water. Seems simple but true. So you are right, some sprucing up and bring the kitchen and bath up to date and you are on your way.
I’m actually going back to this village (Vigliano) today to make a video about “abandoned” hilltop towns. They aren’t abandoned actually, they are just small and don’t have a ton of services. But usually the services are within a few minutes down below where there is room to put them.
Thanks Rose for letting me prattle in your comment and thanks a lot for watching and dreaming!
Brad
I’m heartbroken this home is sold but so happy for the new owners.
Brad. We love your videos and passion about Italy and Italian real-estate. Been watching your videos for several months as we contemplate an eventual purchase. Do you have any worries or concerns regarding the migrant crisis? Potential impact to these amazing villages, real-estate values, taxes, pressure on services?
Like most things in the media, I think they hype it up a lot. Even when I’m traveling in southern Italy in the general population, I don’t notice any homelessness or crowds of people milling around.
I do know that here in Italy, there’s a labor shortage for menial workers, the bottom, wrong entry level jobs. For example, when it’s time for gray port fisting the farm, sure will bring in Contract Labers from companies that have a staff of Bangladeshi workers or from for eastern European countries to do the work Because Italians can’t be bothered. Similar to what happening in the US. Allowing more controlled migration would probably help reduce the stress on inflation as well. IMHO…
I'm so glad I found your channel! How long have you lived there?
Full-time for just four months now. We finally decided to get our visas and receive them in May of this year. But we’ve been coming almost halftime for the last couple years and a few trips a year for the last decade before that.
I’ll be putting on some videos soon about what it’s like dealing with medical care, and how we got our dogs here etc.
Thanks for watching! - Brad
Oh yes, I wish everyone had diagrams (floor plans), especially realestate agents, it helps so much to visualise the layout.
Thanks! For the big ones I’ll keep it up!
Really like the diagram wish they would stay onscreen longer
This is a wonderful home with an unbelievable price. Wow!
Hi, its beautiful! ref water damage does the roof need replacing? is there an restriction to refurbishment with it being historic. Also do alfano have contact for trades people to carry out renovations? Many Thanks.
A good realty company like Alfano will have the contacts you need with people they trust to do any sort of restoration, it’s part of the full service experience here with realtors.
They would probably be restrictions on taking down the ceilings or the hand painted Friscos at least the full room one not sure about the small decorative paintings in the main living room. I doubt in a small town like this that would be much resistance or oversight.
As for the roof, it would be something that of course she would have checked out prior to closing. My experience on these things and seeing the limited water intrusion inside, leads me to believe that it’s probably leaks. We had one in a palace here in Southern Tuscany, that I own an apartment in. It turned out it was a downspout from the gutter , that was allowing water in. Water always finds a way…
Again, it’s always important to have anything you’re buying checked out and a good realtor will help with that too. No reputable Realtor wants someone to go into a sale blind. I think Alfano will take great care of you. Whatever you decide to buy…
I got the shock of my life watching this because my name is Tim and I'm a digital artist. Pleasant surprise!
It’s fate!! Though I doubt you’ll need 15,000 Sq ft for digital art! 🤣
wonderful. Just too big tho - unless you turn it into apartments........... sounds crazy but for that I'd see if it's possible to install an elevator (cut into the wall) - and open up some of the rooms to the outside (make them "indoor" terraces............. always in shade. Those would all be very expensive structural improvements......... but dang, lots of possibilities.
Wonderful showing. Thank you. I was wondering if the Italian government subsidizes restoration of historical residences? I know they do in Germany. Thank you in advance for your response. 👍👌
Diagrams are a big help with larger homes.
Cool. Glad they worked out OK.
Thank you very so much for your videos . They are profesional and with a lot of caracter! You know what to choose. Well I loved the place for 190k . This is lovely but to big. I would like to ask you how much cost the mantenance for such a palace? Thanks again.😊
Gosh that is a loaded question. It was in pretty good shape, but I would budget about €1000 a month into an account for that, hoping that it will build up for the day when something big happens.
You'd need to budget out like $75k for carpets and tapestries lol. What a huge place!
In one of our palace Apts we renovated we did chandeliers and mirrors that were 150 to 250 years old for €1000’s each. And we also did a big rug from IKEA that was $99. 🤣
No one ever knows.
love the architecture and the possibilities for restoration, but I'd feel trapped by the mediocre frescos. Keep, restore or replace with something less twee? Will be a brilliant air B & B for someone.
Mediocre frescoes? Are the frescoes at Pompeii also mediocre? You don’t belong in Italy if you can’t appreciate historical art work and feel the need to replace originals with whatever you consider modern “fashion”.
23:59 The folks paying the string instruments must be exhausted.
Yes but I told them I wouldn’t let them out of the dungeon if they didn’t make it all the way through.
Brad this place is massive! Great potential. Most floors are in good shape. You will need though a minimum of 2 maids to keep it up clean! . I complain about the cleaning of my 2,000 square feet house here, I think i will pass this one 😂.
I checked the website of your 50 unit complex in Oklahoma city, thats impresive brad! So well designed and on a lot of land, and the best? So affordable! You have done well. (real estate will always be the most secure type of investment).
Do you still own this property?
No. Sold it in 2022. Love ‘em and leave ‘em…
@@BradsWorld thats good brad. You cashed on your investment and moved on to greener pastures, to live la dolce vita !!
"A little water damage" Famous last words.No such thing. Major problem there. Would take a half mil to sort out everything. Still cheap. The cellar grand room should clearly be a ballroom. Love all the frescoes. While perhaps not in the middle of nowhere, its certainly on the outskirts of nowheresville.
I had water damage in one of my Palazzo Apts about 3 months ago. It was a drain pipe that had broken in a storm. Was €200 to fix. To me that is a little water damage…! 🤷🏼♂️
But rest is spot on. Everybody needs to get a good inspector on places like this. Pound of prevention and such!
Thanks for watching!!
🥳
Now I am rethinking everything. I can picture a hotel of B&B. Now I have to look at my cash flow.
its great you have experience of doing up property ... makes the commentary really engaging. just a comment brad and that is can you get another mic? the quality is odd and given the level of your commentary it would be great to have better audio quality. this is not in any way putting a downer on this ... in addition to the maps which are superb, it brings it all up to another level.
appreciate this tour.
No problem with the comment. I have had others since this video. I shot this many months ago.
Yes... $20/ft... CRAZY.
The one room with the walls covered in painting I would want that dated to determine if it should be kept. I also would find a special location for the Madonna so that the people can come and visit. I would also uncover the original paintings on the ceilings. The garden needs to be made into a paradise … not sure about a pool.
Madonna is being held for the local church. It’s many hundreds of years old.
Hula Studio?
Ballroom on the top floor
British family bought it. Probably not THAT British family… 🤪 they have a palace already.
Oh, i delegated the yop room as classroom before I saw the huge street level room. That would be the classroom/studio.
Top, not yop.
Is there a garage? Lowest level I didn’t see anything on the back side?
Nope no garage. Tons of parking right there. The palace is now in the hands of new owners…! 🥳🥳
I AM an artist and I look for properties with potential studio space. This property is WAY more than I need since I am a single person but have U.S. friends who are waiting for me to buy a property there to mooch free space under roof while they look for local eating and consuming opportunities. I really like the other palazzo property you featured in this town and can imagine myself in it even over the beautiful and polished Prossedi property that is the same listing price. It seems like your videos are expanding in offering views of local life and despite this property being too large for me, the intro excited me in regards to the street life. If the U.S. State Department ever returns my renewed passport I hope to make travel plans.
And then they shut the government down for all ready approved bills to pay. 🤦🏼♂️
This is just a thought for you, but unless you’d like to roll out of bed and start painting in your PJs, most of these towns have spaced it’s so inexpensive. You could take something and turn it into an exclusive, art studio, and live in a separate building. It’s that reasonable!
And I am trying to show more of the local life. I get so many comments, talking about “dead“ hill towns. These aren’t in the hinterlands of Sicily, these hill towns are very near larger towns usually within 5 to 10 minutes. I tell people to think of them as neighborhoods . You don’t have a big grocery store in every neighborhood in the US or Canada or New Zealand either…. And I probably went months without seeing some of my neighbors. I swear to God, the guy that lives the next house down from me and Texas, I never actually saw his wife in two years of living there. People aren’t just out milling about the streets, 24 seven. Anyway, I’ll keep trying to add more background.
Go on AlfanoRealEstate.com to see all their listings. You can search by town or price point. Most of their stuff is in the province of Frosinone. Good luck!
By the way, my operating procedure for guest is I put a roof over their head and they put a bottle of wine and a meal in front of me. Every time we go out or they buy groceries. And if schlepping them around in my car, they pay the gas. Trust me, people are going to come out of the woodwork once you’re living here.
@@BradsWorld Don’t get me wrong, I like a quiet town and have been in this search mode for so long that I learned that lesson about the mistaken impressions of deserted Italian hilltop towns. I live in a fine New York suburb but it is a social desert. I lived here for 13 years and have never once been invited in to any of my neighbors for a cup of coffee. I grew up visiting my Sicilian grandparents in old Brooklyn where all the buildings were owned by Italians and on Sunday afternoons old guys would sit on the concrete stoops and sing songs from operas. It seems that American Italians lost their culture when they moved out to the suburbs. I like your suggestion about a separate studio space. I know people that do that here. I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me to be able to do that there. Talking to you makes me tweak my searching each time. Thanks again for that.
Try Wellington New Zealand for views,there's plenty of hilltops or Hillsborough in Auckland with the Manukau harbour and 360°panoramic vista's. Plus it has a arty atmosphere at a reasonable price.
I can think of some reasons to use the space. But they couldn’t be for a conventional house.
I didn’t see any radiators. Heat?
I'm rather sure that the wire is a ground. It was quite common in years past to ground the properties electric to the plumbing because the pipes were metal and could conduct unwanted electricity underground (why its called a ground). Looks like someone did some shotty work leaving it out in the open like that. Pipes these days are plastic so a ground rod is needed to complete the electrical installation.
Thanks! Always good to check everything.
Do you have a link to the real estate agent listing this amazing property?
www.AlfanoRealEstate.com. You can search by town or price on their website. The town is Trivigliano. There are two properties there. Their website has tons of value properties. That’s why I contacted them to start making videos with them. Most of the properties I’ve seen with them have been incredible.
Hi Brad, I know this video is a little dated. Is this property still available?
No it’s sold a number of months ago. But I am heading down to see a new place kind of like this not quite as big it’s around €200,000. You can always check out the real estate offerings at alfanorealestate.com.
Hello Brad I want to come and rent a house in Italy before I buy as you recommended where do I start as to get know the local scene and get introduced to the local community,my name is Pero Nasteski and from Australia,would love you feedback thanks Brad
I would come in a month like March-May or Sept-Nov. Try using Airbnb for a one month so you can get lay of the land. A lot of times you’ll get up to 75% discount on the regular rates. It could be quite cheap. I’ve seen really nice places under $1000 for a month in the off-season. Then you’ll have time to look around and maybe snag some thing for longer-term.
@@BradsWorld Thanks a lot Brad we’ll plan on coming in September,hopefully I can shout you a peroni
how much is the yearly tax for such big property??
I bet you less than €1000/year for sure. I have a property that is 3X that price and it’s €1050. If you live in it as primary residence it would be €0 probably.
Is this property still available?
You would need to contact the realtor. Her info is always in the videos. I show them but it’s already been over 100 tours…. Can’t keep up with all of them after the fact! 🤪
