What it really costs
- Land, with no house on it
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The description says this is an ex-stable/barn 'completely to demolish and/or renovate' and is marketed mainly as land to build a custom home, so it fails as a ready dwelling project. At €80,000 for 190 sqm (€421/sqm) plus a full-restore/demolition-level cost estimate (~€1,100/sqm), the effective cost is far above the low Friuli farmhouse baseline (€255/sqm).
More on the house and the area
This is a rustic former stable and hayloft with some old brick-and-stone farmhouse character and a decent-sized green plot. But the listing explicitly says it is completely to demolish and/or renovate, and the photos show no habitable interior at all. It feels more like a building plot with an old shell than a beautiful cheap Italian home you could soon live in.
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€75,000 – €111,000
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.
- Completely to demolish and/or fully renovate per the listing
- No visible finished interior, kitchen, or bathroom
- Roadside location at a corner, so privacy is limited
- Current value is mainly the plot and redevelopment potential, not a ready home
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.
