This is an auction listing, which is an automatic veto. The text also describes very poor conditions with rubble inside, collapsed roofs/floors in the rustic parts, and no utilities at all; at 122 sqm, a full restore would be about €134,200 plus the €16,870 price.
More on the house and the area
There is some authentic Appennine stone-house character outside, with a rustic village feel and a very cheap entry price. But the description makes clear this is in very poor condition, with rubble, collapsing elements and no utilities, so it reads as a serious restoration project rather than a home you could actually live in.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€48,000 – €71,000
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.
- Very poor condition with rubble inside and collapsing roof/floors in rustic parts
- No bathroom shown and the listing reports no utility systems at all
- Not realistically livable without major renovation
- Rural location with limited services and no regular bus service
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.
