At €33,000 for 200 m², the purchase price is just €165/m²; allowing about €200/m² for a habitable farmhouse brings the effective cost to roughly €365/m², close to comparable Lombardy stock at €354/m². The listing highlights autonomous heating, kitchen, partial furnishings, cellar, and portico, though it does not say how many bathrooms the property has.
More on the house and the area
A large, genuinely usable village farmhouse with a covered portico, balcony, cellar, and modest old-house character. The interiors appear furnished and functional, but the property is plain and quite dated rather than beautiful, with no proven view or outdoor retreat. At €33,000 for 200 sqm, the size is the main wow factor.
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€13,000 – €22,000
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.
- The house is habitable but visibly dated, with damp-looking or worn finishes and likely substantial updating needed.
- No bathroom is listed in the facts, so bathroom availability and condition should be verified.
- No garden, private land, or notable view is evident; the setting appears to be a dense village courtyard.
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.
