What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €85,000 for 110 sqm, the ask is about €773/sqm; assuming a light habitable refresh (~€200/sqm) brings the effective cost to about €973/sqm. That is well above your Marche farmhouse baseline of €306/sqm, but the listing says renovated in 2008 with garage, new depandance, and mountain/sea views, which supports a solid livable property rather than a bargain-basement project.
More on the house and the area
This looks like a real, usable home rather than a project: there is a fitted kitchen, finished wooden staircase, and generally lived-in, functional interior space. The likely appeal is the peaceful Marche setting with sea-and-mountain views mentioned in the listing, but the photos themselves do not deliver a strong visual wow. Good value for the size if the views and outdoor setting are genuinely as described.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Photos only show basic interiors; exterior character is not proven.
- Interior finish is simple and somewhat dated rather than especially beautiful.
- Setting/view is claimed in the listing but not clearly demonstrated in these images.
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 inland Marche hills between the Tenna and Aso valleys, with the Sibillini Mountains visible to the west and the Monte Sibilla-Monte Vettore group lying within about 15 km. Sibillini Mountains National Park begins in this inland belt around Montefalcone Appennino and the upper valleys nearby. The nearest ski area is Sassotetto on Monte Valvutara, roughly an hour by road depending on the exact starting point. Amandola is the nearest small town of note, with everyday services and the main access point toward the Sibillini on this side. The area is known for hilltop villages, mixed farmland, woodland, and views across the inland valleys toward the Apennine crest.
