What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €15,000 price is very low, but the 60 m² casale is rustic and requires completion, bringing estimated total cost to about €81,000 (€1,350/m²), versus a Lazio baseline of €659/m². The 3,550 m² land parcel adds value, but legal habitability, utilities, and completion costs are not specified.
More on the house and the area
This has genuine rustic character—stone walls, exposed timber framing, a traditional tiled roof and a peaceful 3,550 sqm wooded setting with rolling countryside around it. However, the building is clearly an unfinished agricultural shell rather than a usable home, so its €15,000 price buys a renovation project and land, not immediate habitation.
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€24,000 – €35,000
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 60 sqm farmhouse is a raw rustic shell with an earth/gravel floor and no visible finished kitchen or bathroom.
- The roof appears present but weathered, with visible openings and likely substantial structural and building-services work needed.
- The large wooded plot is attractive, but access, utilities, permits and renovation feasibility should be verified.
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.
