At €78,000 for 158 m², a modest habitable-renovation estimate (€200/m² → €31,600) yields an effective price of ≈€109,600 (≈€695/m²), well above the local median of €390/m²; the property has also been listed 394 days, suggesting the market disagrees with the price.
More on the house and the area
A solid, well-maintained 1980s independent house with a bright, cozy living room, attractive brick fireplace and roomy windows, plus private outdoor space and a garage. Habitable today and clearly liveable as-is, but styling/modern heating and some cosmetic updates would turn it into a very comfortable permanent home.
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€11,000 – €18,000
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.
- Only one bathroom.
- No central heating shown — currently heated by wood stove and fireplace (methane can be connected).
- Dated 1980s finishes will need cosmetic updating.
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 70/100The Mainarde, the southwestern sector of the Apennines on the Molise-Lazio-Abruzzo border, rise within this area. The Volturno river valley is the immediate landscape here, with low wooded slopes and cultivated valley floor around the villages between Colli a Volturno, Rocchetta a Volturno and Cerro al Volturno. The Parco Nazionale d'Abruzzo, Lazio e Molise begins nearby around Pizzone and the Mainarde, partly within about 15 km of the cluster. Rocchetta a Volturno has the abbey of San Vincenzo al Volturno, one of the main medieval monastic sites in inland southern Italy. The nearest town of size is Isernia, which has the normal range of services and a preserved historic centre. This area is known for mountain pastures, woodland and the upper Volturno valley villages.
