About this place
This country villa is situated in the picturesque village of Grutti, part of Gualdo Cattaneo in Umbria. With a total internal area of 226 m², the villa combines ancient stone and traditional plaster exteriors, showcasing the character typical of Umbrian farmhouses. Inside, you’ll find chestnut wood beams and rustic terracotta flooring, enhancing its distinctive charm.
The spacious open-plan living room features a fireplace and an adjoining kitchen, both opening onto a large porch. This outdoor area is designed for dining and offers magnificent views of the surrounding unspoilt valley. The ground floor includes a bedroom, a shower bathroom, a laundry area, and a closet. Moving to the first floor, there are two additional bedrooms, one of which boasts a walk-in closet, along with a generous family bathroom.
Surrounding the villa is a 3,500 m² garden that is fully fenced and easy to maintain. It features an automatic gate, and there is potential to add a swimming pool. The property is also home to a variety of centuries-old trees, including oaks, olive trees, and fruit trees, as well as about 60 truffle plants, presenting a unique opportunity for cultivation.

Buying 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
