What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €79,000 asking price is only €263/m², but the 300 m² stone farmhouse is described as a complete renovation project, implying about €330,000 in works at €1,100/m². Effective cost is roughly €1,363/m², more than double the Lazio farmhouse baseline of €659/m²; the 10 hectares add value but do not offset the major restoration burden.
More on the house and the area
The setting is genuinely beautiful, with expansive rolling countryside, distant mountains, woodland and approximately 10 hectares of land around a traditional stone farmhouse. However, the building is an abandoned shell requiring total renovation, so this is an ambitious countryside restoration project rather than a usable home today.
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€119,000 – €176,000
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 farmhouse is described as a complete renovation project/rudere, with no livable interior shown.
- Utilities, structural condition, floors, kitchen and bathroom are unverified.
- Access appears to be via an unpaved rural track; renovation and service-connection costs could be substantial.
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 61/100The area sits in the Sabina hills, with olive groves, low ridges and cultivated valleys around the Tiber basin. The Tiber River runs nearby, and the Nera valley and the first Apennine reliefs are farther to the east. The Riserva Naturale Tevere-Farfa lies nearby, protecting a stretch of river, wetlands and wooded slopes around the confluence of the Farfa with the Tiber. Poggio Mirteto is the nearest town of size, with rail access, services and a working historic centre; farther south, the Rome-Orte corridor affects daily logistics more than the landscape. The area is known for Sabina olive oil.
