At €717/m², the asking price is about 84% above the local €390/m² benchmark before works. The house has a recently renovated kitchen and bathrooms, but energy class G, partial roof work and extensive outbuilding maintenance reduce the value despite the unusually large accessory spaces and garden.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable, well-equipped country house with a functional kitchen, two bathrooms, five potential sleeping rooms, and unusually large garage, barn, and storage spaces. The interiors are tidy but ordinary and dated, while the exterior and setting offer little visual charm beyond a small garden. Its strongest appeal is the amount of usable property and outbuilding space for the price, rather than beauty or a dream Italian setting.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €300/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€14,000 – €23,000
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.
- Plain roadside setting with no scenic view, terrace, or notable historic character.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high running costs.
- The large accessory buildings include a partially restored roof and a planned capannone roof replacement.
- Interiors are usable and maintained but dated, with substantial furniture and décor to remove or update.
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 38/100The area lies on the lower Po plain, with the Po river nearby and a landscape of embanked waterways, reclaimed farmland and scattered villages. Ferrara is the nearest city of size, with a large historic centre and UNESCO status linked to the Este city and the Po Delta. The Po Delta regional park lies to the east, but outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for irrigated agriculture on the alluvial plain.
