What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €75,000 for 180 sqm, the ask is just €417/sqm versus a €503/sqm local baseline, and the rebuilt roof/floors are a major positive for a stone farmhouse shell. Assuming a medium renovation at about €700/sqm, the effective cost is roughly €1,117/sqm; the structure seems sound and the 400 sqm garden/panoramic setting add value.
More on the house and the area
The stone farmhouse exterior is very attractive, with authentic Umbrian character, a hillside position and some pleasant panoramic outlook. But inside it is essentially an empty shell: roof and floors may have been rebuilt, yet the rooms are unfinished and not currently livable. This feels like a promising restoration project rather than a ready dream home.
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€36,000 – €63,000
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.
- Interior is a stripped shell needing full renovation and fit-out
- No usable kitchen or finished bathroom shown
- Some visible damp/decayed wall areas despite rebuilt roof/ceilings
- Garden is overgrown and outdoor spaces need clearing
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.
