See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is an auction lot sold with a diritto di usufrutto (limited ownership), so full possession may be blocked; price €38,005 (€108/m²) looks very low vs Marche baseline €449/m², but sale is judicial and images are not the real ones — high legal/clarity risk. Renovation estimated ~€700/m².
More on the house and the area
Photos show attractive, modern-finished rooms and a handsome historic façade with iron balconies, so the building reads as photogenic and potentially very liveable. However the listing states the complex needs renovation and is an auction/usufruct sale, so plan for legal steps and likely repair/fit-out despite the strong bargain on offer for 351 m².
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€70,000 – €123,000
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.
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.

- Advertised images are indicated as generic — the photos may not represent the actual condition of this property.
- Official facts list the building as 'Needs renovation' and show 0 baths — expect work and possible missing services/finishes.
- Sale is via auction / usufruct (legal complexity) — additional legal and transfer costs/time likely.
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 68/100The cluster sits in the northern Apennines, in the upper Biscubio valley near the border with Umbria. The Candigliano and Metauro catchments shape this part of inland Pesaro-Urbino, with wooded ridges, farmed slopes and river valleys close by. The area is tied to the Monte Nerone and Monte Catria massifs, which are the main mountain features of this inland zone. Monte Nerone is the nearest ski area, with small lifts on the mountain at roughly 20–30 minutes by road from Apecchio. Città di Castello is the nearest larger town in daily use, with wider services, schools, shops and a hospital, and Urbino is the main historic town of the province. This inland strip of Marche is known for truffles, mushrooms, woodland and small stone villages of the Apennine foothills.
