Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €65,000 (€500/m²), the asking price is already above the local €350/m² benchmark; assuming substantial renovation, the effective cost rises to about €1,200/m². The listing does not say whether the house is habitable or what work it needs, and its isolated inland location offers limited location premium.
More on the house and the area
A solid, fully roofed country house surrounded by woodland and roughly 750 m² of outdoor space, with a genuinely beautiful elevated valley view from the balcony. The interior appears usable now, with a working-looking kitchen, bathroom, tiled floors, and a charming central fireplace, though the decor and fittings are distinctly dated.
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€26,000 – €46,000
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.
- Interior and finishes are dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- The isolated hillside setting may mean difficult access and limited nearby services.
- Utilities, heating, structural condition, and year-round accessibility are not confirmed.
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 72/100The cluster is in the first Alpine foothills of Friuli, with the Carnic Prealps immediately around it and the higher Carnic Alps to the north. Lago di Cavazzo lies by Trasaghis, and the Tagliamento valley runs nearby. Much of this area falls within the Prealpi Carniche Regional Natural Park. The nearest ski lifts are on Monte Zoncolan, roughly an hour by road, which is a logistics fact rather than part of the immediate landscape. Gemona del Friuli is the nearest substantial town, with rail links, shops and daily services; Udine is farther south for a larger city. The area is known for the lake, the mountain valleys and the Tagliamento corridor between the Alps and the Friulian plain.
