See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €95,000 for 640 sqm, the estimated €448,000 renovation bill brings the effective cost to about €848/sqm, far above the local comparison level of €255/sqm. The listing includes a house, garage, cellar and garden but does not clearly separate habitable floor area from the total property area, making the valuation uncertain.
More on the house and the area
A solid detached villa with a generous garden, covered porch, stone-and-brick exterior, and pleasant views toward the green Marche hills. The house appears roofed and genuinely usable, but the dated interiors, visible damp staining, clutter, and overgrown grounds mean it needs meaningful renovation rather than just cosmetic updating.
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€127,000 – €225,000
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 area around
Location score 72/100The cluster is in the inland Marche hills between the Tenna and Aso valleys, with the Sibillini Mountains visible to the west and the Monte Sibilla-Monte Vettore group lying within about 15 km. Sibillini Mountains National Park begins in this inland belt around Montefalcone Appennino and the upper valleys nearby. The nearest ski area is Sassotetto on Monte Valvutara, roughly an hour by road depending on the exact starting point. Amandola is the nearest small town of note, with everyday services and the main access point toward the Sibillini on this side. The area is known for hilltop villages, mixed farmland, woodland, and views across the inland valleys toward the Apennine crest.
