What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The €95,000 price looks low at €432/m², but both dwellings require restoration: estimated total costs push the effective price to roughly €1,530/m², far above the local €491/m² benchmark. The large 220 m² footprint and two-home layout offer potential, but this is a major renovation rather than a ready-to-live-in bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial two-home village property with a pleasant Marche setting, traditional shutters, terrazzo floors, exposed timber beams, and a fireplace. The main house looks roofed and basically habitable, but it is old-fashioned and needs refurbishment, while the separate dwelling is a clear renovation project. The 220 sqm package at €95,000 gives it good space-for-money appeal, but it is more of a practical restoration opportunity than a dream-home scroll stopper.
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€87,000 – €129,000
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 main house appears usable but very dated, with cracked plaster and substantial cosmetic updating needed.
- The independent second dwelling is visibly in poor condition and requires restoration.
- No interior photos clearly confirm the bathrooms, full kitchen facilities, or current utility condition.
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.
