What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The €68,000 asking price is attractive at €400/m², but the house is explicitly described as needing renovation, with storage verandas and an unfinished attic. After estimated renovation costs of about €700/m², the effective cost is roughly €1,100/m², far above the local €360/m² benchmark.
More on the house and the area
A substantial independent country house with balconies, private outdoor space, olive trees and genuinely attractive mountain-valley views. The main structure appears solid and usable rather than ruined, but the interiors are dated and the property needs meaningful renovation, especially the ancillary spaces and garden.
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€34,000 – €60,000
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.
- The property is explicitly sold as needing renovation, with dated interiors and rough storage/deposit areas.
- The garden and surrounding grounds are overgrown and will need clearing and landscaping.
- It fronts a provincial road, so traffic noise and access should be checked; utilities and planning compliance require verification.
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 55/100The area is in the inland hills between the Calore Irpino and Sabato river systems, with mixed farmland, wooded slopes and small ridge villages typical of central Irpinia and the Benevento side of the Apennines. The Partenio mountains lie to the west and north-west, forming the nearest named range in the wider local horizon. Benevento is the nearest town of size, with major services and Roman monuments including the Arch of Trajan and the theatre. This part of Irpinia is known for vineyards and olive growing, with Taurasi wine country lying in the broader province.
