Why this price is what it is

Asking €28,000 but described as "completely to be renovated"; I estimate €900/m² → effective cost ≈€118,000 (≈€1,180/m²) versus regional median €459/m², so it's overpriced. Positive note: the roof was recently refurbished and there are 19 photos.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

Attractive traditional stone building with a recently redone roof, exposed beams and a private ~300 m² garden — very photogenic exterior. It’s essentially a shell that needs a full interior rebuild and some structural work, so not move-in ready.

Minimum to live in it€350–500/m²
€35,000 – €50,000

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.

€60,000 – €90,000

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

Our read of the photos, €900/m², falls in this band.

Full€1,200–1,500/m²
€120,000 – €150,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€20,000 – €35,000

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.

Asking price + this range
€88,000 – €118,000
What worries us about this house
  • Full renovation required — interiors are a shell (no finished rooms/floors shown).
  • Upper façade has large openings/partial collapses: structural/stonework repairs likely.
  • Utilities (plumbing/electric/heating) not shown and may need complete installation.

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.
