What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €75,000 for 210 sqm, the asking price is just €357/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €380/sqm, and even with a light-to-moderate renovation estimate of ~€650/sqm the effective cost is about €1,007/sqm. The description points to a solid, bright house near Tricesimo town center with good space and 27 photos, so this looks like a plausible renovation project rather than a trap.
More on the house and the area
This is a large, solid, genuinely usable house rather than a shell: roof, floors, staircase, bathroom and bright rooms are all in place. The wow is modest though—the exterior is plain and the setting is just a practical village courtyard, not a dream view location. At €75k for 210 sqm it has strong value and decent potential, but it feels more sensible than swoon-worthy.
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, €650/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€42,000 – €74,000
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.

- Interiors are empty and dated, so it needs real cosmetic updating.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a large 210 sqm house.
- Courtyard is functional but not especially private or landscaped.

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 58/100The cluster sits on the Friulian plain at the foot of the Julian Prealps. The Torre river runs nearby. The first relief of the prealpine belt rises within a few kilometres to the north around Tarcento and Nimis, with wooded hills and short valleys rather than high alpine scenery. Udine is the nearest city of size and has the main services, rail connections and a substantial historic centre. This part of Friuli is known for mixed farming and for the wine areas that begin in the eastern hills toward the Colli Orientali del Friuli.
