What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €68,000 for 140 m², the purchase price is €486/m², but the listing explicitly requires a complete renovation estimated at about €1,100/m², bringing the effective cost to roughly €1,586/m² versus a local reference of €465/m². The historic-center setting and four-sided independence add appeal, but not enough to offset the heavy renovation burden.
More on the house and the area
This is a highly atmospheric historic-borgo townhouse with striking brick architecture, cobbled lanes, and genuinely beautiful hill views from the windows. However, it is explicitly a raw renovation project, with no photographed finished interiors or evidence of a usable kitchen and bathroom. The setting is exceptional, but the current home condition keeps it below the dream-home tier.
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€55,000 – €82,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- The property requires a complete renovation and is not currently move-in ready.
- The gallery shows no finished living spaces, kitchen, or bathroom, so livability and utilities are unverified.
- Historic-borgo access appears narrow and pedestrian-oriented, which may limit convenient parking and deliveries.
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 68/100The area sits on cultivated hills between the Val d'Aso and Valtenna, with views toward the Sibillini range on clear days. The Adriatic coast is nearby, with the beaches and seafront towns around Porto San Giorgio and Pedaso roughly 15 km away. The nearest substantial town is Fermo, which has a cathedral, a Roman cistern complex and the usual provincial services. Moresco, one of the Borghi più belli d'Italia, is within this area. This part of southern Marche is known for mixed farming, vineyards, olive groves and hill villages set between river valleys.
