The €99,000 shell is not habitable and needs substantial completion: at roughly €1,100/m², the effective cost is about €2,043/m² versus a local reference of €585/m². The listing does not say how far construction has progressed or provide an energy rating, making the final budget especially uncertain.
More on the house and the area
The panoramic hilltop setting is genuinely attractive, with wide views across the green Lazio countryside and a large plot offering privacy and garden potential. However, the property is only a raw concrete-and-brick structure with no finished living spaces, so it is a major construction project rather than a home someone could occupy soon.
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€42,000 – €62,000
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.
- This is an unfinished shell, not a livable home; interiors lack floors, finishes, kitchen, and bathrooms.
- Substantial completion work and likely utility, insulation, heating, and landscaping costs are required.
- The sloping 3,000 sqm plot may require significant maintenance and access/retaining-wall work.
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.
