What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The €34,650 asking price looks low at €151/m², but a renovation allowance of about €700/m² brings the effective cost to roughly €851/m², well above the €559/m² local benchmark. The listing gives very little detail about the layout, bathrooms, energy performance, or renovation scope.
More on the house and the area
The staged interiors look modern and clean, but they are not evidence of the real home, while the supplied exterior is an uninspiring apartment-block image. The actual listing involves a partial ownership share, renovation needs, and an inagibile building section, making this a complicated project rather than a beautiful, ready-to-live-in Italian home.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€46,000 – €81,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- The photos are explicitly indicative and do not show the actual property.
- Only a 1/2 ownership share is being sold.
- One dwelling is currently unusable, with damaged stairs and internal walls; another part lacks systems and needs renovation.
- This is a court auction, so legal, access, occupancy, and ownership issues require careful checking.
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 57/100The immediate surroundings are low rolling hills and arable plain of central Marche, with fields, olive trees and vineyards typical of the province. The Apennine chain (Monti Sibillini) lies to the west and is visible on clear days but is more than 15 km away. The Adriatic coast and its beach towns (for example Civitanova Marche and Porto Potenza Picena) lie to the east at roughly the distance of a short drive. There is no national park within 15 km; mountain skiing and ski lifts on the Sibillini are significantly farther. The city of Macerata is the nearest provincial centre and offers a university, the Sferisterio arena (summer opera festival), hospital and broader services. The local economy around the town mixes agriculture (olive oil, cereals, vineyards) with small industrial and craft businesses typical of southern Marche.
