See what needs doing and what each job costs
€90,000 for 235 m2 but listed as 'needs renovation' — estimated renovation €700/m2 (~€164,500) puts the effective price at ~€254,500 or ~€1,082/m2, well above the regional median of €409/m2. Good photo count and features (garage, terrace) are positives, but the large renovation burden and the address mismatch (Gambugliano vs Sovizzo) make this overpriced.
More on the house and the area
Beautiful, characterful farmhouse with exposed beams, stone terraces and a spectacular panoramic valley view — the interiors shown are light, stylish and largely finished so it reads as a very liveable home. However the gallery also includes unrenovated/roofless outbuildings and the listing flags 'needs renovation', so expect targeted works rather than a zero-effort instant move-in for the whole estate.
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€47,000 – €83,000
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.

- Listing notes 'needs renovation' and a number of photos show unrenovated/outbuilding areas or a partially open roof that will need work
- Confirm which parts of the property are fully finished vs still a shell before viewing (photos mix finished staging with derelict shots)
- Check permits/utilities for the renovated sections and any work on the outbuildings
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.
