As a Brit with a holiday home in Northern Italy, its been over a year since I have been able to visit it. Last time was in February 2020, when the highlight was a meal out with Italian friends in a crowded restaurant in Bergamo! Luckily, no ill

I must admit that I have some sympathy with a female who gets less than a half of the inheritance her brothers get, but do not know the reasons behind such a seemingly unfair distribution
Two options come to mind.
1...Go to law, in the hope that she realises that her legal costs will be excessive, and she therefore relents on the sale
Or
2... You and your brother each offer her 1.5/30 of your respective inheritances, (conditional on a sale) leaving her with 7/30 and the you boys with 7.5/30 each. She may see this as a more equitable solution, and agree to sell.

Ugo,

Ugo,
The UK government website also suggests that approaches are made to the Italian Consulates in UK for advice on how to get approval for longer stays.
It has some useful 'links' to facilitate/begin this process
The important thing is that talking to the Italian Consulates before travelling may (and I stress 'may') be beneficial
""To stay longer, to work or study, for business travel or for other reasons, you will need to meet the Italian government’s entry requirements. Check which type of visa and/or work permit you may need with the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs or Italian Consulates in London, Manchester or Edinburgh before booking an appointment .""
Have you looked at the uk government website?

"assuming you're a non European citizen"
Do you mean "non-EU" or "non-European"?

Had a quick look on 'via michelin' at the effect of going via Luxembourg and GotthardTunnel, as opposed to going direct via Mont Blanc Tunnel.
Seems it takes (in theory ) only about 30 minutes longer, and the overall cost is slightly less,allowing for 2 vignettes.
Of course, the return journey would be 80 swiss francs cheaper, as you already have the vignettes
Just checked eurotunnel site. It says -
