At €60,000 (€231/m²), the asking price is 51% below comparable homes, but the listing does not state the condition, construction year, or energy performance. Allowing roughly €182,000 for renovation brings the effective cost to about €931/m², making this a risky but potentially interesting historic-center project.
More on the house and the area
This is a large, characterful historic-center house with attractive old-town surroundings, traditional beams and patterned floors, plus a striking rooftop terrace with wide Umbrian hill views. The 260 sqm house appears solid and usable rather than a ruin, but the interiors are plainly dated and will need modernization. At €60,000, the size and rooftop potential create strong dream-home appeal if the terrace and legal configuration check out.
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€51,000 – €91,000
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 interiors are habitable but dated, with damp or cosmetic issues visible in places.
- The property is spread over multiple floors and may require substantial updating and stair use.
- The rooftop solarium/terrace imagery should be verified as built and included, since some photos appear project or staging visuals.
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 56/100The area sits in the Tiber valley and the low hills between Perugia and Todi, with mixed farmland, olive groves and small woods. The River Tiber runs east of Marsciano, and the Nestore valley is part of the local landscape. Perugia is the nearest city of size, with a full set of services, rail links and a university; Todi is the nearest historic hill town of note, on a ridge above the valley. This part of central Umbria is known for agricultural countryside and dispersed stone hamlets rather than for a single standout natural feature within the immediate area.
