What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €35,000 for 120 sqm, the ask is €292/sqm; assuming a habitable-but-not-renovated condition from the description, the effective cost is about €492/sqm including ~€200/sqm renovation. The baseline is weak (Campania country house median €450/sqm), so this looks plausibly good rather than exceptional; 29 photos and a detailed layout support that it is a real livable house.
More on the house and the area
This is a real house, not a shell: it has usable rooms, a kitchen, bathrooms and decent overall livability. The best charm comes from the olive trees, country setting and low price, while the house itself is simple and needs cosmetic updating rather than major reconstruction. It feels more modest countryside home than fantasy postcard property, but still has honest live-in potential.
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€8,000 – €13,000
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.
- Exterior is plain and visibly weathered
- Interiors are basic and partly dated, with some rooms needing refresh
- Signs of damp/peeling plaster visible in places
- Panoramic terrace/view is mentioned but only weakly shown in photos
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.
