In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The habitable 70 m² apartment costs €93,000, or about €1,329/m²; allowing roughly €14,000 for updates brings the effective cost to about €1,529/m², well above the local €854/m² benchmark. The private garden, parking space and heating add appeal, but the price premium is substantial for a non-coastal location.
More on the house and the area
This is a solid, genuinely livable apartment with a pleasant balcony, functional interiors, and a sizable private garden. It is more practical than dreamlike: the setting is suburban and road-facing, with dated but serviceable finishes and no standout view or historic character.
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€5,000 – €8,000
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 home appears habitable but finishes and furnishings are dated rather than recently renovated.
- The garden is private and usable, but the property sits directly beside a busy-looking road/intersection.
- No distinctive historic character or exceptional views are shown.
- At €93,000, the price feels fair rather than an obvious bargain.
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 53/100The area sits on the western edge of the Po plain, close to the lower Trebbia valley and the first hills of the Piacentine Apennines. The Trebbia river is the main natural feature nearby. Piacenza is the nearest city of size, with a full set of services and a substantial historic centre. South of here, within the province, the landscape becomes vineyard and mixed-farming hill country around the Val Tidone and Val Trebbia, and the area is known for wine and cured meats typical of the Piacentino.
