At €159/m², the asking price is very low, but this 1930s 220 m² house is silent on its condition and likely requires substantial renovation. With an estimated €700/m² renovation allowance, the effective cost is about €859/m², well above the local €484/m² benchmark.
More on the house and the area
A photogenic late-1930s Ligurian country house with distinctive green shutters, stone detailing, a generous garden, and superb mountain scenery. The roof and structure appear intact, while the hallway shows a genuinely usable, characterful interior rather than a bare shell, though the large house likely needs modernization and maintenance. At €35,000, the size, setting, and apparent livability create strong dream-home appeal.
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€44,000 – €77,000
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.
- Interior gallery is limited, so the condition of kitchens, bathrooms, plumbing, and heating is not fully clear.
- The property appears to be a large older house needing cosmetic updates and ongoing garden maintenance.
- Stepped access and the roadside setting may be less convenient for some buyers.
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 Ligurian Apennines, in the upper Val d’Aveto, with wooded mountain slopes and pasture around the valley floor. The Aveto river runs through this area. Much of the surrounding territory falls in the Aveto Regional Natural Park. Santo Stefano d’Aveto, the main centre of the valley, is nearby and has basic services and an old village core. The nearest ski lifts are at Santo Stefano d’Aveto on Monte Bue, roughly a 20-minute drive from Rezzoaglio. The area is known for mountain pasture, forests and local dairy products, especially the formaggio d’Aveto tradition.
