Why this price is what it is

Price €24k for 100 m² but described as fully to be renovated; I estimate renovation ~€1,100/m² (~€110k) so effective cost ≈€134k or ~€1,340/m², well above the regional baseline of €290/m². Nice panoramic location, but renovation burden makes this an overpriced project.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

Lovely stone village house with authentic character and sweeping mountain/valley views, plus a small exterior area for parking or animals. However the interior is a clear full-renovation project (damaged floors, missing fittings), so this is a bargain renovation opportunity rather than a move-in-ready home.

Comfortable€600–900/m²
€60,000 – €90,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

Full
€120,000 – €150,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€40,000 – €59,000

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.

Connections and paperworkabout €10,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Property is a full renovation project — interior floors/finishes are damaged or missing
  • Likely need for structural/roof and utility checks before habitation
  • Only one rough interior photo shown; bathrooms/kitchen not present

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 61/100

The Ligurian Apennines surround this area, in the upper Val Nure. The Nure river runs through the valley. The nearest ski area is near Passo del Penice, roughly an hour’s drive, with small lifts on the Apennine ridge. Bettola is the nearest small centre for daily services, while Piacenza is the nearest city of size with full shops, rail links and hospitals. This part of the Piacentine Apennines is known for wooded valleys, pasture and scattered stone hamlets.
