At €1,083/m², the asking price is already about 75% above comparable Lazio country homes at €617/m²; assuming moderate renovation, the effective cost rises to roughly €1,783/m². The 5,685 m² plot and cellar add utility, but the listing does not state the property's condition, age, or energy performance.
More on the house and the area
A charming old stone country house set among mature olive trees, with a large rural plot and a photogenic rustic character. The roof and main structure appear present, and the plan includes a kitchen area and bathroom, but the neglected exterior and lack of interior photos suggest this is a renovation project rather than a move-in-ready 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€12,000 – €21,000
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.
- The house looks weathered and likely needs substantial cosmetic and systems renovation.
- No interior photos confirm the condition of the kitchen, bathroom, floors, or utilities.
- The property is a very small one-room dwelling, despite the extensive land.
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.
