Large 264 m² villa listed at €99k; I estimate €200/m² renovation (~€52,800) giving an effective price of ≈€151,800 or ≈€575/m² — about 53% above the regional baseline of €375/m², so not a standout bargain despite good photos and a central location.
More on the house and the area
A large, practical town house with a charming stone-arched garage, private garden/portico, roof terrace and ample storage — all rare at this price. Interiors are perfectly liveable but dated and in need of cosmetic works and some repairs, so this is a realistic, affordable project rather than a fully finished dream home.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€17,000 – €30,000
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.
- Cosmetic renovation needed throughout (peeling plaster, worn floors, dated finishes).
- Exterior portico/terrace and metal stairs show wear and should be checked/repaired.
- Only one bathroom shown; confirm heating/energy systems and any hidden maintenance issues.
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 cluster lies on the Friulian plain close to the lower Isonzo valley, with the Carso/Kras plateau beginning a short distance to the south-east and the Collio wine hills within about 15 km to the north. The Isonzo/Soča is the main river of the area. Gorizia is the nearest town of size, with a historic centre, castle and the border crossing into Nova Gorica. This part of the province is known for vineyards and white wines, especially in the Collio zone.
