What it really costs
- Registered as agricultural or storage, not as a dwelling
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €42,000 (€627/m²), this 67 m² property is currently a warehouse rather than a legal dwelling. Conversion to residential use is only possible subject to approvals, so habitable status and total costs are uncertain.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€26,000 – €39,000
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.
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 58/100The cluster lies in the inland valleys behind Imperia, in olive-growing hills cut by small streams, with the Ligurian Alps rising further north. The nearest coast is the Riviera di Ponente around Imperia, about 12 km away, which matters for services and daily movement but is outside the immediate inland landscape. Imperia is the nearest town of size, with full everyday services, a port and rail connections. This part of western Liguria is known for Taggiasca olives and olive oil.
