This 144 m² habitable apartment is listed at €68,610, with estimated renovation bringing the effective cost to about €97,410 (€676/m²) versus a €468/m² local benchmark. However, the description explicitly identifies it as an auction property, which makes it ineligible under the catalog’s rules.
More on the house and the area
A large 144 sqm apartment with polished, highly photogenic interiors, generous windows, fireplaces, and attractive exposed-beam details. It is described as habitable with a kitchen and autonomous heating, so this appears to be a real usable home rather than a renovation shell. The €68,610 price is compelling, although the lack of exterior/context photos and the auction status reduce confidence.
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€10,000 – €16,000
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.
- Auction purchase may involve legal, occupancy, or timing complexities.
- No bathroom count is provided in the facts, despite the apartment being described as habitable.
- The gallery shows attractive interiors but provides little evidence of the building exterior, surroundings, or actual views.
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.
