Casa bifamiliare
Ci sono case che sono semplici edifici, e poi ci sono luoghi che aspettano solo la tua voce, il tuo gusto e la tua vita per prendere finalmente anima. Se hai sempre sognato una soluzione che ti garantisca riservatezza, totale autonomia e la serenità di non dover mai più pagare spese condominiali, questa proprietà semi-indipendente è la risposta...
What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €20,000 (€286/m²), the asking price is 32% below Campania's €422/m² baseline, but the condition is undisclosed and the description is purely promotional. Assuming substantial renovation at €700/m², the effective cost is about €986/m², making this only a fair prospect pending inspection.
More on the house and the area
A highly affordable 70 sqm townhouse with genuine historic character, including exposed stonework, brick arches, old timber doors, patterned floors and a usable terrace. It appears to be a real, roofed and livable home with a bathroom and finished rooms, rather than a shell, but the exterior is rough and the interiors are distinctly dated.
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€14,000 – €25,000
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.
- Very dated interiors and finishes would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- Exterior masonry, balcony structure, drainage and roof areas need careful inspection.
- The home is on a narrow historic lane; vehicle access and practical parking should be verified despite the listing tag.
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 56/100The cluster lies in the Montoro valley between the Monti Picentini and the first inland ridges west of Avellino. The Solofrana valley runs through this area, with mixed farmland, scattered industry and road infrastructure between the built-up centres. The Monti Picentini Regional Park begins nearby and gives the area a mountain backdrop within short distance. Salerno is the nearest city of size, with full services, rail links and port functions; Avellino is also close for everyday services. The area is known for Montoro onions and for being a corridor between the Irno-Solofrana plain and the inland Campanian valleys.
