What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €267/m², the €80,000 asking price is well below the Marche baseline of €500/m², but an estimated €700/m² renovation cost raises the effective cost to about €967/m². The 300 m² country house has strong space and location appeal 4 km from the sea, but its condition is unspecified and the description stresses redevelopment potential.
More on the house and the area
A charming, substantial Marche country house with manicured gardens, traditional shutters, terracotta floors, exposed beams, and fireplaces. The interiors are furnished and clearly usable rather than an empty shell, though visible cracks, damp marks, and dated areas keep it below dream-home condition. At €80,000 for roughly 300 sqm plus extensive private grounds, the price creates a strong bargain effect.
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€59,000 – €105,000
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.
- Visible wall cracking, damp staining, and exterior weathering suggest maintenance or renovation work.
- The large house and garden may require substantial ongoing upkeep.
- Utilities, structural condition, and legal status are not documented in the supplied facts.
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 55/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Ancona, so the immediate setting is an Adriatic port city rather than open countryside. The Conero promontory and Monte Conero lie just south of the city within about 15 km, with the Conero Regional Park covering the limestone headland above the Adriatic. The coast here includes the Portonovo bay area on the Conero side. Ancona is the nearest town of size and has a port, rail links, hospitals, university facilities and the main urban services of the province. The area is known for the harbour and for the start of the Conero coast.
