In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €60,103, the estimated effective cost is about €991/m² after allowing €200/m² for a habitable home, roughly 82% above the local comparison level of €543/m². Garage, cellar and independent heating add value, but the listing does not say the number of rooms, bathrooms, energy class or construction year.
More on the house and the area
This is a practical, apparently habitable 76 sqm apartment with heating, garage, and cellar at a relatively attractive price. The renovated-looking rooms and bathroom are pleasant but generic, and there is little distinctive Italian character or proven view to create a strong dream-home effect.
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€5,000 – €9,000
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 gallery appears inconsistent: one image shows a very poor room while the others show a renovated apartment.
- No bathroom, kitchen, or clear exterior condition is documented in the facts.
- The apartment is in a standard multi-unit building, with no proven spectacular view or private outdoor space.
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 61/100The area sits on the rolling hills between the lower Chienti valley and the Adriatic side of the Marche, with a mix of cultivated slopes, scattered farmhouses and small historic hill towns. The Chienti river plain lies nearby toward Civitanova Marche, while the coast is reached in a short drive but is outside the immediate 15 km landscape. Recanati is close by and provides a substantial historic town with services and the Leopardi associations. Loreto is also nearby, with the Basilica della Santa Casa and a major pilgrimage centre. This part of the province is known for mixed farming and for a chain of hill towns looking over the coastal plain.
