Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €825/m², the €99,000 asking price is nearly double the local €419/m² benchmark; allowing for modest €200/m² updates gives an effective cost of about €1,025/m². The central location, garage and independent entrance add value, but the listing does not state the property's condition or energy performance.
More on the house and the area
This is a spacious, genuinely livable townhouse with a fitted kitchen, two bathrooms, air conditioning, balcony, garage, and independent entrance. Decorative woodwork, vintage furnishings, and ornate balconies add some Italian character, while the small annex and courtyard offer useful extra space rather than a beautiful outdoor setting. At €99,000 for 120 sqm with garage and outbuildings, it has solid value appeal, but it is more practical and charming than dreamlike.
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€8,000 – €13,000
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 fully usable but dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- The attached rustic outbuilding and courtyard look rough and utilitarian.
- No major landscape or panoramic view is shown; the outlook is mainly onto the village square.
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 43/100This is the Po plain, with flat agricultural land around the lower course of the Po River; the river itself is within the local area and shapes the landscape with embankments, fields and scattered riverside settlements. The nearest town of size is Piacenza, which has a full set of services and a historic centre. The area is known for intensive farming and for the food-producing countryside of the lower Po.
