See what needs doing and what each job costs
Price €100,000 for 140 m² with renovation estimated at €700/m² adds ≈€98,000, giving an effective price of ≈€198,000 (≈€1,414/m²) versus the regional median of €659/m². The property has generous cellars, garage and two land plots and is structurally sound with geometer reports, but the high renovation burden makes the total cost well above local comparables.
More on the house and the area
A solid, livable three‑storey house with garage, big cellar rooms, private courtyards and long balconies — plus attractive mountain views from the upper floor. The layout and services look usable now, but the interiors are dated and need cosmetic renovation (plaster, finishes, kitchen/baths) to turn it into a truly charming 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, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€28,000 – €49,000
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 72/100The cluster is in Lunigiana on the northern Tuscan Apennine side, with the Apuan Alps close by to the west and the Apennine ridges toward the east. The Rosaro and wider Magra valley system shapes this area, and the slopes around Fivizzano are a mix of wooded hills, stone villages and small agricultural terraces. The Parco Nazionale dell’Appennino Tosco-Emiliano lies nearby on the eastern side of the municipal area, and the Apuan Alps Regional Park is also close within the wider 15 km setting. Cerreto Laghi is the nearest established ski area, roughly an hour or a little more by road depending on the exact hamlet. Fivizzano itself is a small historic centre with everyday services, and Aulla is the nearest larger road and rail hub in Lunigiana. The area is known for Lunigiana’s hill villages, chestnut country and the chain of castles spread across the wider valleys, with the Medicean centre of Fivizzano and nearby Equi Terme among the local reference points.
