In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €745/m², this 61 m² apartment is already well above the local €322/m² benchmark; adding an estimated €12,200 for habitable-condition work brings the effective cost to about €945/m². The description is extremely sparse and lists no bathroom, despite calling the property habitable, so essential details need verification.
More on the house and the area
The property has a distinctive secluded rural setting, surrounded by dense woodland and mature vegetation, with a substantial cluster of traditional tiled roofs. It is described as habitable with autonomous heating and a kitchen, but the gallery shows only aerial exterior views, so its real comfort and finish remain uncertain.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
- No interior photos are provided, so the claimed habitable condition and kitchen cannot be verified.
- The listing reports zero bathrooms, which requires clarification.
- The isolated wooded setting may mean limited access and utilities; verify road access and connections.
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.
