More on the house and the area
This is a substantial, clearly usable family home with a small fenced outdoor area, balcony, garage, heating, and apparently functioning kitchens and bathroom. However, the architecture and interiors are ordinary and dated, with no standout view or distinctive Italian character to create a strong dream-home reaction.
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€18,000 – €31,000
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.
- Interiors and finishes are dated and would benefit from modernization.
- The listing facts show 0 bathrooms despite a bathroom appearing in the photos; verify the official layout and utilities.
- No notable view, historic character, or especially attractive setting is shown.
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 41/100This is in the western Pavia plain on the edge of the Oltrepò Pavese, with flat cultivated land around the lower Staffora valley and the Po plain landscape nearby. The Staffora river runs through this part of the area, and the Po is a few kilometres to the north. Voghera is the nearest town of size, with rail connections, services and a historic centre. The area is known for agriculture on the plain and, farther south in the hills, for Oltrepò Pavese wine.
