What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitable- On the market for a long time
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €100,000 for 220 sqm, the ask is €455/sqm, but the house is only partly habitable and partly unfinished, so I estimate about €350/sqm renovation, bringing the effective cost to about €805/sqm versus a €392/sqm baseline. The large agricultural land package and Cilento setting add some appeal, but 1,108 days on market is a major negative and suggests the market has rejected this price.
More on the house and the area
This is more a practical countryside property than a romantic showstopper, but the olive land and mountain backdrop give it genuine rural appeal. The main house looks basically habitable with usable rooms, bathroom and kitchen, while a significant section remains unfinished and would need work. Good space and land for the money, but the wow comes more from potential and setting than from the house itself.
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, €350/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€25,000 – €43,000
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.
- Part of the house is still unfinished/raw.
- Interiors are habitable but dated and need modernization.
- Exterior is plain rather than picturesque.
- Some visible wear/moisture staining, especially in the bathroom and stair areas.
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 74/100The cluster is in the middle Calore valley below the Alburni mountains. The Calore Lucano river runs by Felitto and forms the Gole del Calore, a river gorge used for canoeing and walking. This is inside the Cilento, Vallo di Diano e Alburni National Park. The nearest town of some size is Roccadaspide in the inland Sele-Calore area; for a wider range of services people usually look to Capaccio Paestum or Battipaglia farther west. The area is known for river gorges, mixed woodland and inland Cilento villages; Felitto itself is also known locally for fusilli.
