At €70,000 for 120 sqm, the ask is €583/sqm, but with a realistic renovation budget of about €700/sqm the effective cost is roughly €1,283/sqm. That is far above the local baseline of €420/sqm for Campania townhouses, despite the central location in Pietrelcina and tourism potential.
More on the house and the area
This is a solid, real townhouse in the village center, not a ruin: it has floors, stairs, balcony access and usable room volumes, so it feels like a livable house that needs renovation rather than a shell. The current beauty is modest—more practical than romantic—with no meaningful view or standout historic detail proven in the photos. At €70k for 120 sqm, the value helps, and the best appeal is the potential to turn an ordinary but workable home into a pleasant full-time village base.
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€24,000 – €42,000
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.

Location score 58/100The cluster lies in the inland hills east of Benevento, in the Sannio area at the edge of the southern Apennine hill country. The Tammaro river valley is nearby and the wider landscape is a mix of cultivated slopes, olive groves and small wooded ridges. Benevento is the nearest city of size, with rail links, services and major Roman and medieval monuments including the Arch of Trajan and the church complex of Santa Sofia, which is part of the UNESCO Longobards in Italy listing. Pietrelcina is known as the birthplace of Padre Pio and has a religious sanctuary and pilgrimage sites.
