Listing price EUR 45,000 plus estimated renovation ~EUR 600/m² (~EUR 108,000) gives an effective cost of about EUR 153,000 (≈EUR 850/m²), well above the regional baseline of EUR 464/m²; roof and new inter-floor slab reduce some costs but not enough to close the gap. The ad includes 9 photos and is recently listed (10 days), but does not give construction year or energy class.
More on the house and the area
Attractive stone farmhouse with a recently redone roof and new floor slab, sitting in a private garden with clear mountain views — very photogenic exterior and strong historic character. Interiors are a raw shell with rubble floors and no services, so this is a renovation project best for someone wanting to fully customise a spacious home.
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, €600/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€36,000 – €63,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

The area around
Location score 81/100The Sibillini Mountains rise immediately around Montefortino, with Monte Sibilla and the massif of the Monti Sibillini within the local landscape. The area lies in the Monti Sibillini National Park. A short drive leads up toward the mountain roads and trailheads around Pintura di Bolognola and the Sassotetto area, which are the nearest ski areas in this part of the range. The nearest larger town with a fuller set of shops and services is Ascoli Piceno, while Amandola is the small local service centre for the upper valley. This part of the Sibillini is known for high limestone ridges, upland pastures, gorges and mountain walking.
