What it really costs
- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing ('in asta', minimum bid €57,750), which is an automatic veto for this catalog despite the low ask. The house itself appears in decent/discrete condition with some updated systems, but auction risk overrides pricing and makes it a trap here.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, substantial historic town house in a medieval center, with generous space, a garage, and an attic level said to have panoramic valley views. The visible interiors look old-fashioned rather than derelict, and the description points to decent condition with heating and updated electrics, so it seems usable but not especially beautiful in its current presentation. The dream factor comes more from the old centro storico setting, scale, and price than from standout visuals.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €300/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€19,000 – €32,000
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.
- Photo quality is very poor, so charm and condition are hard to verify visually.
- Interiors look dated and likely need cosmetic updating.
- Only one bathroom for a large 191 m² house.
- Top-floor attic is unfinished, so not all space is ready to use.
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 56/100The area sits in the Tiber valley and the low hills between Perugia and Todi, with mixed farmland, olive groves and small woods. The River Tiber runs east of Marsciano, and the Nestore valley is part of the local landscape. Perugia is the nearest city of size, with a full set of services, rail links and a university; Todi is the nearest historic hill town of note, on a ridge above the valley. This part of central Umbria is known for agricultural countryside and dispersed stone hamlets rather than for a single standout natural feature within the immediate area.
