At €79,000 (€425/m²), the asking price is essentially in line with comparable local stock at about €431/m², so it is not a clear bargain. The home is presented as livable, but its condition, construction year and energy performance are not stated, and the advertised three bedrooms do not clearly match the listed seven beds.
More on the house and the area
A striking ochre town house with ornate cornices, wrought-iron balconies, shutters, a private terrace, and genuine historic character. The interiors are solid, bright, roofed, and clearly livable now, though dated and likely to benefit from cosmetic updating. At 186 sqm and €79,000, it offers unusually substantial, usable space for the price.
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€12,000 – €21,000
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 are clean and usable but dated, with a large amount of traditional cabinetry and older finishes.
- The kitchen and bathrooms appear functional, but their condition and modern utilities are not fully shown.
- Town-center setting means limited privacy and no panoramic landscape view.
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.
