What it really costs
Can you move in?
Move in as it is
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €450/m², the asking price is slightly below the local benchmark, but allowing roughly €200/m² for unspecified condition puts the effective cost above it. The spacious six-room layout, two bathrooms, fireplace, exposed beams and terrace are positives, though the listing does not say whether the property is move-in ready.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, spacious Umbrian home rather than a renovation shell, with five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a usable kitchen, fireplace, and beautifully preserved exposed beams. The surrounding green hills and sunny three-sided exterior add real rural character, while the interiors are dated and show some damp and maintenance needs.
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 – €11,000
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.
- Visible damp and peeling plaster on some walls, especially downstairs.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated, cluttered, and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- The narrow access road and exterior condition should be checked carefully.
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 77/100The area sits on the slopes of Monte Ingino and Monte Foce, with the Umbrian-Marche Apennines close by to the east. Gubbio has a large medieval hill town with the Palazzo dei Consoli, a Roman theatre, and the Basilica of Sant’Ubaldo above the town. The Parco del Monte Cucco lies nearby in the same mountain belt, and the road east rises toward the Scheggia pass and the Apennine uplands. Gubbio is known for the Corsa dei Ceri and for its preserved stone-built historic centre.
