What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €49,000 (€408/m²), the asking price is already above the Campania palazzo baseline of €372/m², and the unknown condition implies roughly €700/m² in renovation, for an estimated effective cost near €1,108/m². The listing data is incomplete and inconsistent: facts show 0 rooms and 0 bathrooms, while the description mentions two rooms, a kitchen and a bathroom.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine old village home rather than an empty shell, with livable rooms, patterned original-style floors, vintage furnishings, arches, balconies and a large terrace. The surrounding mountain setting adds appeal, but the property is visually tired and includes damp, deteriorated courtyard areas, so it needs substantial updating before feeling like a dream 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€24,000 – €42,000
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.
- Several exterior and courtyard areas show heavy peeling, damp staining and neglected masonry.
- The large rooftop terrace appears weathered and may need waterproofing or structural inspection.
- The interiors are usable-looking but dated, with no clear evidence of modern kitchen, heating or systems.
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.
