What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
€75,000 plus an estimated €16,000 renovation (≈€200/m²) gives an effective €91,000 or ≈€1,138/m², far above the local median of €416/m². The ad states the house is habitable and shows 17 photos, but the listing record lacks a condition field so key details are incomplete.
More on the house and the area
A charming, move‑in ready semi‑detached house in a historic village street with original stone facades, attractive tiled floors and warm wooden‑beam ceilings. The real highlight is the large private roof terrace with open hill and rooftop views; overall the property feels habitable now but the attic has low headroom and light updating may be desired.
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€5,000 – €9,000
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.
- No private garden — town-centre house on a narrow street
- Sottotetto has low/sloping ceilings (limited full-height space)
- Some cosmetic updating may be wanted (heating/energy class not shown)
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 41/100Bellona lies on the inland plain north of Naples, between the Volturno basin and the first hills below the Campanian Apennines. The Volturno River runs a few kilometres to the north. Capua is the nearest substantial town and has a large historic centre, Roman remains and rail connections; Caserta is also nearby with the Royal Palace of Caserta, a UNESCO site, but that is outside the immediate landscape and does not define the setting around the cluster. This part of the province is known for mixed farmland on the plain, small towns and road links between Capua, Caserta and the interior.
