At €57,001, the estimated all-in cost is about €97,001, or €485/m² after allowance for habitable-condition updates—around 26% above comparable local stock. The villa has strong practical features including heating, garage, cellar, terrace and fiber, but the listing does not say how many bathrooms, and it provides no energy or construction-year details.
More on the house and the area
This is a large, genuinely habitable Umbrian house with a strong open view over rolling countryside, a balcony, terrace, garage/carport and cellar. The home is solid and livable rather than a renovation shell, but its plain exterior, dated furnishings and lack of distinctive historic interiors keep it in the charming rather than dream-home tier.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/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€13,000 – €22,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated and heavily furnished, so cosmetic updating would improve the home substantially.
- The house fronts a road and appears closely attached to neighboring buildings, limiting privacy.
- The listing data reports zero bathrooms, although a bathroom is visible in the photo gallery; verify the official layout and utilities.
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 68/100The area sits in the Umbrian hill country between the Topino and middle Tiber valleys, with cultivated ridges of olive groves, vines and woodland around the villages. The nearest river landscape of note is the Tiber valley to the west. Perugia is the nearest city of size, and Foligno is the nearer service town with rail links, hospitals and larger shops. Assisi lies nearby on the flank of Monte Subasio, and the Monte Subasio Regional Park is within the wider surrounding area. The area is known for olive oil and wine, and for a chain of hill towns such as Bevagna and Montefalco with intact historic centres.
