See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €50,000 for 300 sqm, the asking price is only €167/sqm, but with a realistic renovation budget of about €700/sqm the effective cost is roughly €867/sqm. That is well above the local low-end baseline of €419/sqm, so this is not cheap on a fully renovated basis; still, the large size, independent entrances, garage/cellar add utility, but 348 days on market is a clear warning and caps the score.
More on the house and the area
The hillside old-town position is appealing, and the upper-level view across the valley to the mountains is genuinely beautiful. But the building shown is largely a raw, unfinished shell rather than a usable home, with empty openings, rough concrete/blockwork and no visible habitable interior. At €50k for 300 sqm it has project appeal, not dream-home-now appeal.
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€59,000 – €105,000
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.

The area around
Location score 74/100The cluster sits in the Vallo di Diano below the southern Campanian Apennines, with the Monti della Maddalena and other ridges close around the plain. The Tanagro river runs through this valley. The Cilento, Vallo di Diano e Alburni National Park covers this area. Teggiano is a substantial hill town with a large medieval core, a castle, and churches and palazzi concentrated inside the old centre. The Certosa di Padula, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is nearby in the same valley. This part of inland Campania is known for its broad enclosed valley between mountain chains and for historic hill towns above the plain.
