The description says rudere (ruin) of about 100 sqm with 4,600 sqm of surrounding land, so this is effectively a collapsed restoration/land play rather than a normal livable home. With a full-restore estimate of about €1,100/sqm, effective cost is roughly €1,450/sqm versus a €433/sqm baseline, and it has been on the market for 617 days.
More on the house and the area
The sea-and-hills panorama and old stone walls give it some romantic appeal, especially with 4,600 sqm of land. But the photos show a genuine ruin with missing roof and no usable interior, so this is a rebuild project rather than a home you could actually move into. At €35k it is intriguing for dreamers, but the wow is mostly in the setting, not the current house.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€40,000 – €59,000
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.

- This is a true rudere/ruin, not a livable house.
- Roof and interiors are largely gone, so it needs full reconstruction.
- Overgrown sloping land may mean harder access and site works.
- Utilities and permissions for rebuilding need checking.
