What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €79,000 for 180 sqm, the asking price is about €439/sqm; assuming a basic habitable-standard refresh (~€200/sqm), effective cost is about €639/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €312/sqm in Marche farmhouses. The mountain-borgo setting is attractive, but without clear evidence of full renovation the deal looks ordinary to somewhat expensive for this catalog.
More on the house and the area
The mountain borgo setting is genuinely atmospheric, with beautiful wooded slopes and authentic stone character. But the real house shown is largely a raw restoration project, with empty openings, rough grounds and partially collapsed annex sections, so this is not yet a usable home. The wow is in the location and potential, not current livability.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Major renovation project; interiors are not shown as habitable
- Part of the structure appears collapsed/roofless in sections
- Renderings may not reflect current delivered condition
- Steep village/mountain access and outdoor areas look rough
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 72/100The cluster is in the Apennine foothills on the upper Candigliano valley, with Monte Nerone and the main Umbrian-Marche Apennine ridges within the 15 km landscape. The Candigliano river runs through this area, and the Gola del Furlo with its limestone walls and river reservoir lies nearby. The area is close to the Riserva Naturale Statale Gola del Furlo. The nearest ski area is on Monte Catria, reached by mountain roads in roughly 45 minutes from Piobbico; Monte Nerone also has seasonal snow facilities at similar driving times. The nearest larger centre is Urbino, which has a complete historic centre, university functions and major services. Urbino is a UNESCO World Heritage city. This part of inland Marche is known for wooded Apennine valleys, limestone gorges, truffle country and small hill towns.
