See what needs doing and what each job costs
Estimated renovation ≈€700/m² → renovation total ≈€113,400; added to the €35,000 price gives an effective cost of ≈€148,400 or ≈€916/m², well above the local median of €425/m². The property has 1,200 m² of land and many photos, but the high restoration burden makes this an expensive renovation project rather than a bargain.
More on the house and the area
Attractive, characterful stone farmhouse with a large walled terrace and about 1,200 m² of private land — lots of mature trees and privacy. The building appears structurally intact with its roof in place, but the whole house needs renovation to become a comfortable, lived-in 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€32,000 – €57,000
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.

- Needs full renovation (interiors not shown) — expect plumbing/electrics/kitchen/bath upgrades
- Roof tiles look old and will likely need repair or partial replacement
- Overgrown grounds will require clearing and landscaping; access is on a narrow country road
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 54/100The cluster sits in the inland hills between the Sabato and Calore valleys, in a farmed landscape of low ridges, woods, olive groves and small villages. Benevento is the nearest town of size, with rail services, hospitals and the Roman arch and theatre in its historic centre. The wider area is known for Samnium hill country, vineyards and olive oil.
