What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €29,500 asking price is very low at €163/m², but the original finishes, former stable, attic and stated recovery potential suggest substantial renovation. At an estimated €700/m², the effective cost is about €863/m², well above the €377/m² local benchmark; the listing also does not state the condition, bathrooms or energy performance.
More on the house and the area
The authentic Friulian stone facade, exposed timber, old shutters, and private garden give this property real rustic character and strong conversion potential. However, the interior photos show unfinished, worn spaces with no visible bathroom or usable kitchen, so this is a substantial restoration project rather than a livable cheap home.
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€36,000 – €64,000
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.
- Major renovation is required; the interiors are raw, deteriorated agricultural spaces rather than a move-in-ready home.
- No bathroom is listed, and utilities, structural condition, roof condition, and planning permissions need verification.
- The property fronts a road and access currently depends on a right-of-way; the garden and outbuildings need substantial clearing and upgrading.
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 61/100The cluster sits on the Friulian foothills below the Carnic Prealps. The Meduna valley and the stony Magredi plain are the main local landscape features in this part of western Friuli. Within about 15 km are small vineyard and farming settlements around Spilimbergo and the Tagliamento basin. Spilimbergo is the nearest town of note and has a substantial historic centre and the well-known mosaic school. This area is known for gravelly river plains, vineyards, and the transition from plain to prealpine hills.
