Asking €22,908 for 102 m² with autonomous heating; I estimate renovation €200/m² → effective ≈ €43,308 (≈€425/m²) versus local median €575/m² (~26% below median). Listing is brief but has 5 photos and no veto issues, making this a solid value-for-money renovation opportunity.
More on the house and the area
Bright, fully renovated 102 m² apartment with modern finishes and a new-looking bathroom — truly move‑in ready. At ~€23k this is a striking bargain for a usable family home, but it’s an urban flat without garden, view, or historic charm so check baths/condo fees before committing.
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€7,000 – €11,000
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 obvious private garden — appears to be an apartment with a small balcony only
- Listing shows 0 baths in data despite shower photos — verify number of bathrooms
- Likely in a multi-unit building — check condominium fees and elevator access
- No notable scenic view or historic character; urban setting
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.
