See what needs doing and what each job costs
Listed at €18,000 for 100 sqm (€180/sqm), but in 'needs renovation' condition the effective cost is about €880/sqm including ~€700/sqm works, versus a low-stock baseline of €420/sqm. Central village location helps a bit, but 1,637 days on market is a major negative and caps confidence.
More on the house and the area
This is a very cheap, real townhouse rather than a ruin: it has stairs, floors, furnished rooms and a functioning-looking bathroom, so it seems basically usable with renovation. But the wow factor is low: the exterior is plain and worn, and the interiors are generic 1960s/70s rather than characterful or beautiful. It feels more like a practical budget project than a dream Italian 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.
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€20,000 – €35,000
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 72/100This is inland Cilento, with low mountains and wooded hills at the edge of the Alburni-Cilento interior. The Calore Lucano valley is the main landscape element in the area, with the river running below the hill settlements. The Cilento, Vallo di Diano e Alburni National Park extends across this part of the province. Roccadaspide is the nearest larger hill town with everyday services, and Capaccio Paestum is the main larger centre toward the plain. The wider area is known for olive groves, inland Cilento villages, and access routes toward Paestum and the Cilento interior.
