See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €60,000 (€500/m²), the house is priced above the local €357/m² benchmark; allowing roughly €12,000 to install the missing boiler brings the effective cost to about €600/m². New bathrooms, compliant utilities, independent access and a historic-center location support the price, but the listing does not state the overall condition or building age.
More on the house and the area
A substantial 120 sqm independent home inside Alife’s Roman walls, with a charming historic-town setting, original marble floors, balconies, and two newly finished bathrooms. The structure appears solid and genuinely habitable, but the kitchen is still a bare fitted-out room and the boiler installation remains unfinished, so it needs practical completion rather than simple decoration.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €100/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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
- Kitchen is unfinished and needs units/appliances.
- Boiler still needs installation, so heating is not fully operational.
- The home is on two levels with a narrow stairway and limited outdoor space.
- Interiors are clean and usable but currently plain and largely unfurnished.
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 cluster lies in the upper Volturno valley at the foot of the Matese mountains. The Volturno river runs through this part of the plain. The Matese Regional Park covers the mountain area east and north of Alife, with limestone massifs, upland pastures and forested slopes within this radius. The nearest ski area is Campitello Matese, roughly 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes by road depending on the exact route. Piedimonte Matese is the nearest larger town, with a full set of everyday services and a railway connection. Alife itself is known for its Roman street grid and surviving Roman walls.
