What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €382/m², the €65,000 asking price is only about 9% below the Campania country-house baseline of €420/m². The dwelling appears functional from the description, but condition and key technical details are missing; assuming €200/m² of works gives an effective cost of about €582/m².
More on the house and the area
A substantial, independent two-story country house with a sunny façade, balcony, mature olive tree, open rural surroundings, and a traditional fireplace. The interiors are clean, furnished, and clearly livable, with a working kitchen, two bathrooms, multiple bedrooms, and intact floors and roof, though the style is dated rather than particularly refined.
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€11,000 – €19,000
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 functional but dated and would benefit from cosmetic modernization.
- The property appears to have substantial paved outdoor space, but the usable garden/land area is unclear.
- Rural location may mean dependence on a car and potentially higher maintenance costs.
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.
