What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €543/m², the €38,000 asking price is already above the Marche townhouse baseline of €467/m²; including an estimated €14,000 for habitable-property updates, effective cost rises to about €743/m². The house has useful heating, air conditioning, a fireplace and 17 photos, but its inland location and above-baseline effective price limit the deal quality.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely habitable €38,000 townhouse with a working kitchen, bathroom, heating, air conditioning, and a solid everyday layout. It has some Italian village character and a glimpse of the surrounding countryside, but the interiors are dated and practical rather than beautiful, while the private outdoor area needs clearing and improvement.
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€5,000 – €8,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated and cluttered, likely needing cosmetic updating.
- The spiral staircase and split-level layout may be less convenient for some buyers.
- The private court/storage area appears heavily cluttered and not currently presented as an attractive outdoor space.
- No standout views or strong historic architectural details are shown.
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 56/100Pollenza sits on the rolling foothills of the Marche Apennines in a mosaic of small agricultural fields, olive groves, vineyards and woodland patches. The Potenza river valley runs nearby and the local terrain is a series of low hills rather than high mountains. Macerata, the provincial capital, is about 8–10 km away and provides a university (Università di Macerata), the Sferisterio open‑air opera arena and provincial-level services. There is no national park or named mountain range within ~15 km; the Sibillini Mountains lie farther inland. The Adriatic coast (Civitanova Marche / Porto Recanati area) is roughly 30–35 km to the east. Nearest ski lifts are on the Sibillini massif, well beyond the 15 km radius (typically a 1–2 hour drive). The immediate area is made up of small hill towns and villages with local shops, churches and agricultural activity.
