Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €46,000 (€541/m²), the home is 30% below the local €771/m² benchmark, but its effective cost rises to about €1,241/m² after allowing €700/m² for likely renovation. The listing confirms residential use, independent access, a cellar and private outdoor space, but does not state the condition; energy class G and the vague description add uncertainty.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely livable, characterful village home with a colorful stone-accented exterior, wood-beamed interiors, fireplace, fitted kitchen, and a finished bathroom. The surrounding mature woodland and nearly 4,900 sqm of agricultural land add real lifestyle appeal, although the setting is more peaceful and green than scenic or panoramic.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€17,000 – €30,000
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.
- Energy class G suggests higher running costs and possible efficiency upgrades.
- The steep exterior stairs and sloping wooded grounds may be challenging for reduced mobility.
- The home appears well maintained and usable, but the listing does not confirm the condition of the roof, systems, or cellar.
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 72/100The area sits in the Modenese Apennines, with wooded ridges and mid-mountain farmland around Monte Cimone to the southwest. The Panaro valley is nearby, and the Regional Park of the Sassi di Roccamalatina lies within this area, with sandstone spires and forested slopes. The nearest ski lifts are on Monte Cimone around Sestola, roughly 35–45 minutes by road. The nearest larger town is Vignola, with everyday services, and Modena is the main city for higher-level services and rail connections. The area is known for chestnuts, mountain villages, and for the Sassi di Roccamalatina rock formations.
