List price €65,000 (433 €/m²) and 'habitable' condition; I estimate €200/m² renovation → effective ≈ €95,000 (≈633 €/m²), about 19% above the regional baseline of €531/m². The property has strong features (terrace, garden, garage, 29 photos) but has been on market 188 days (stale listing), which lowers the score.
More on the house and the area
Beautiful, sunny hillside setting with a wide panoramic view of the Alpi Apuane and a usable terrace — the location sells this place. The building is habitable with two levels, functioning bathroom(s) and outdoor parking, but interiors are dated and need cosmetic work (kitchen fittings, floors, wiring/plumbing) before being fully comfortable.
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€10,000 – €17,000
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 required — kitchen removed, patched/uneven flooring and some exposed wiring/plumbing.
- Upper level reached by external stairs; property sits on a steep/narrow road which may affect access.
- Garden is private but small and on a slope, limited flat outdoor space.
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 74/100The cluster is in the Lunigiana, with the northern Tuscan Apennines and the Apuan Alps within the 15 km landscape. The Rosaro and Pizzo d’Uccello area lies nearby, and the territory around Fivizzano reaches into the Parco Nazionale dell’Appennino Tosco-Emiliano. The nearest ski area is Zum Zeri, roughly an hour by road. Fivizzano is the main small town in the area, with a substantial historic centre, a main piazza and services for the upper Lunigiana. The wider area is known for stone villages, chestnut country and mountain routes between Tuscany, Liguria and Emilia.
