Asking price €79,000 (549 €/m²) but the description says it “requires some intervention” — estimated renovation €700/m² (€100,800), giving an effective cost ≈€179,800 or ≈€1,249/m², well above the Umbria median of €538/m². The listing has many photos (25) but does not state condition or building year.
More on the house and the area
Nice, characterful Umbrian town house with original beams, arched ground floor and a very attractive panoramic view over olive trees and rooftops. The shell and layout are intact (floors, windows and a bathroom exist) but interiors are tired and need comprehensive renovation. With work it could become a spacious, affordable village 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€28,000 – €51,000
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.
- Full renovation required — peeling plaster, damaged ceilings and general redecoration needed
- Bathroom and fixtures are in poor condition and likely unusable as-is
- Signs of damp/ceiling damage — structural and roof inspection recommended
- Located on a narrow street with limited private outdoor space/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.
