What it really costs

Livable, but something basic is worn out

See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly an auction listing ("acquisto in asta"), which is an automatic veto for this catalog. The €94/m² ask looks cheap versus the €420/m² baseline, but the property is occupied, has cadastral irregularities (difformità), and includes incomplete rooms, so the low price does not outweigh the auction risk.
More on the house and the area
This looks like a substantial, usable villa rather than a shell, with a proper driveway, garden and outdoor barbecue area. The exterior is pleasant but fairly ordinary suburban rather than truly romantic or historic. At this price for 276 sqm it has strong bargain appeal, but the incomplete rooms and irregularities hold the wow score back.
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, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€55,000 – €97,000
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.
- Some upper-floor rooms are incomplete.
- Listing states planning/cadastral irregularities.
- Property is currently occupied.
- No interior photos proving finish quality or character.
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 Fortore hills, with rolling inland terrain on the Campania side of the Apennines. The Fortore river basin is the main landscape feature in this part of the province. Baselice is part of the Comunità Montana del Fortore, a sparsely settled upland zone of fields, woods and hill villages. The nearest town of some size is San Bartolomeo in Galdo, which provides everyday services for the upper Fortore area. This part of inland Benevento is known for cereal farming, olive groves and livestock country rather than for a single landmark site.
