What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Habitable 100sqm apartment at 650 EUR/m2 vs baseline median 608 EUR/m2, so priced slightly above local median but within normal range. Move-in ready (only lightly lived-in), 1980 build, energy class E, with garage, box auto, two terraces, attic and cellar adding value. Fresh listing (7 days). Minor cosmetic/energy upgrades only, hence low reno cost estimate. Solid, fairly priced deal but not a bargain.
More on the house and the area
Standard 1980s condominium apartment in Serra de' Conti, Marche. The exterior is an unremarkable multi-story block with garages. Interiors are dated and heavily furnished with dark vintage wood furniture, marble floors, and old kitchen/bathroom fixtures condition is habitable but tired. The one genuine plus is the hillside view over rolling countryside visible from the living room and bedrooms. At €650/m2 for 100sqm with garage, terraces, cellar and attic, the price is very low, giving mild bargain appeal, but nothing here stops the scroll. No striking architecture, no exceptional location, no wow interior.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €100/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€3,000 – €5,000
Wiring, water and sanitary work of any kind, heating, air conditioning and gas go to a registered firm by law, and so do flues and the air openings for gas appliances. That labour stays in the bill. Yours is the stripping out, plaster, paint, floors, tiling and carpentry.
Labour is 61% of a renovation price on average and 67% at the median, across 191 items of the Emilia-Romagna 2025 public price list. Materials are the rest. An averaged price list, not a quote.
Materials you buy yourself carry 22% VAT; supplied by the firm doing the work they go at the 10% renovation rate. On a €30,000 materials bill that is €3,600 of extra tax.
Household wiring installed before 13 March 1990 counts as compliant if it has a main breaker with overcurrent protection, protection against direct contact and a 30 mA RCD. Having a firm bring the existing wiring up to that and certify it is the cheapest lawful route.
- Dated 1980s interiors with heavy vintage furniture throughout
- Energy class E
- Bathroom and kitchen fixtures original/outdated
Estimate from the listing and its photos, not a survey. Treat it as the starting point for your own quotes. An Italian builder's quote is normally written without VAT and without design fees, so add about a quarter to any figure a firm gives you.
The area around
Location score 59/100The area is in the inland hills between the Misa and Cesano valleys, with a landscape of cultivated ridges, woods and small historic villages. The nearest stretch of Adriatic coast is around Senigallia, but it is outside the immediate landscape. Within this part of inland Ancona province, Ostra Vetere and Corinaldo are the main nearby historic centres; Corinaldo is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia and is known for its intact walled old town. Senigallia is the nearest larger town with full services, rail station and hospital. This part of the Marche is known for mixed farming, vineyards and olive growing.
