Asking €65,000 (≈€312/m²) but the listing does not state the property condition; I estimate a full renovation at €700/m² → effective ≈€1,013/m². That is about 89% above the local median of €536/m², so despite size, garden and garage the effective price is expensive.
More on the house and the area
Large independent house with a private garden and pleasant hill views near Gubbio. The structure appears sound and immediately usable in places, but the interiors are dated with damp/ plaster damage and the cellar/garage areas need significant finishing — a good-value renovation project to create a roomy family 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€41,000 – €73,000
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.
- Interiors dated with signs of damp and plaster damage — repainting/plastering required
- Basement/garage and some rooms are raw/unfinished and need work
- Kitchen and bathrooms appear outdated or missing fittings, so renovation required
- Check roof/gutters (seen moss near chimney)
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 77/100The area sits on the slopes of Monte Ingino and Monte Foce, with the Umbrian-Marche Apennines close by to the east. Gubbio has a large medieval hill town with the Palazzo dei Consoli, a Roman theatre, and the Basilica of Sant’Ubaldo above the town. The Parco del Monte Cucco lies nearby in the same mountain belt, and the road east rises toward the Scheggia pass and the Apennine uplands. Gubbio is known for the Corsa dei Ceri and for its preserved stone-built historic centre.
