It just three external walls.

Would be grateful for any indications of costs.

Thanks in advance.

Consult your builder. I cannot say as I am not in construction but I would imagine these costs could vary based on the standard you want the new windows material to be, interior to be etc.

100k plus.

Planning for that renovation I suspect would be required given its a listed building also.

A conservation architect has to be employed. the cost is double per square foot over work on a non-listed building. €100k is only allowing about €320 per sq ft which is very low for work on a listed building.
