In the listingNeeds renovation- On the market for a long time
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Priced at 636 EUR/m2 vs local median of 409 EUR/m2, so it's above baseline per m2, but the absolute price of 70k for 110 m2 habitable townhouse is reasonable. Needs renovation (energy class G, built 1967) and the two levels lack internal connection, requiring an internal staircase—adds cost but also enables dual-rental income. Good photo count (18), habitable structure, garage, garden, and near town center. days_on_market=0 likely means a fresh or re-listed entry rather than genuine market data. Solid renovation candidate with flexible use; deduct for above-median price and reno scope.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house rather than a shell: it has functioning kitchens, bathrooms, floors and furnished rooms, so the dream is reachable. But the beauty level is modest—the setting is a shared court, the exterior is tired, and there are no standout views or strong historic features. The small garden and balcony add some livability, yet it feels more practical bargain than romantic Italian dream home.
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.
Our read of the photos, €500/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€13,000 – €21,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Exterior and courtyard areas look worn and need clear renovation/cleanup
- No internal connection between the two floors at present
- Interiors are habitable but dated and somewhat plain
- Garden is overgrown and outdoor service areas look makeshift
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 is at the foot of the Partenio Mountains, with Monte Partenio and the Montevergine massif close by. This area falls within the Partenio Regional Park. The nearest ski lifts are at Laceno, well beyond the 15 km radius and roughly an hour or more by road, so they are not part of the immediate landscape. The nearest larger towns are Avellino and Benevento, which provide the main services, rail links and larger shopping and administrative functions. The area is known for wooded mountain slopes above a settled valley corridor between the Irpinia interior and the Caserta plain.
