Listing states the house is "abitabile da subito", so I used a low repair estimate of EUR 100/m² (EUR 22,700), yielding an effective price ~EUR 78,700 or ~EUR 347/m² versus the regional median EUR 375/m²; large private woods (~40,000 m²), garage and 26 photos support the listing's condition.
More on the house and the area
Large, sunny mountain home with balconies and a panoramic terrace, solid and habitable now. Spacious rooms, wood floors and garage make it a realistic family or holiday house — a very strong value at this price, though interiors are a bit dated and you should verify the claimed surrounding land ownership.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €100/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€8,000 – €12,000
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.
- Dated 1980s finishes — modernising likely desired.
- Confirm extent/ownership of the advertised woods/land (photos show a small shared yard).
- Property is in a quiet mountain village — services and transport may be limited.
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 Julian Prealps, with steep wooded valleys and limestone ridges around the upper Torre basin. The Torre river and its side valleys shape the area. Much of the surrounding mountain terrain falls within the Julian Prealps Regional Nature Park. The nearest substantial town is Udine, which provides the main rail services, hospitals and larger shopping. This borderland area is known for mountain villages, forests, hiking country and a Slovene linguistic presence.
