Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Assumed light renovation at €200/m² (listing shows kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms but condition isn’t stated), giving an effective price of €650/m² vs the regional median €478/m² — the property is above typical local value. Positive points: 12 photos and bus access on the main road; lack of condition details reduces confidence.
More on the house and the area
Solid, roofed three-level village house with original character (wooden shutters, exposed beam in the living room) and a small outdoor area with a grapevine. Interiors are lived-in but dated — kitchen and bathroom need renovation and there are signs of damp. Excellent bargain for the price and only ~12 km from the sea, but expect some repair and modernisation before comfortable full-time living.
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€7,000 – €11,000
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 updating needed (kitchen, bathroom, finishes)
- Ceiling stains / possible damp in places that should be inspected
- Small, unkept outdoor area and close to the main road (noise/parking)
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 52/100The cluster is in the hills immediately west of Cosenza, on the lower slopes of the Coastal Range (Catena Costiera) that separates the Crati valley from the Tyrrhenian side. The Crati valley and the urban area of Cosenza are the main daily reference point, with city services, shops, hospitals, rail connections and the historic centre of Cosenza close by. Sila National Park is farther east beyond Cosenza and does not sit within the immediate 15 km landscape. This part of inland Calabria is known for olive groves, wooded hills and scattered hill villages rather than for a single landmark landscape or protected site within the immediate area.
