The €40,000 price becomes roughly €205,000 after estimated full restoration, or about €1,367/m² versus €257/m² for comparable local stock. This F2 collabente farmhouse has structural lesions, no utility connections, and requires complete renovation, despite its attractive countryside setting 4 km from the sea.
More on the house and the area
A highly photogenic traditional Marche farmhouse with aged masonry, terracotta roof tiles, open countryside, and expansive rolling-hill views. However, it is officially a derelict/uninhabitable unit requiring complete renovation, with visible structural damage and no connected utilities. The 1,500 sqm court is appealing, but this is a substantial restoration project rather than a usable home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€59,000 – €88,000
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.
- F2 collabente: complete renovation required before residential use.
- Visible masonry cracking and post-earthquake structural ties warrant a full structural survey.
- No water or electricity connections are present.
- Access is via a right-of-way rather than a private road.
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.
