At €35,000 (€304/m²) for 115 m², this well-maintained four-room apartment is priced well below the local €602/m² benchmark; allowing about €200/m² for light updating still gives an effective cost near €504/m². Sea access, a balcony and garage strengthen the value, although the building has no lift and the energy rating is G.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely usable, spacious four-bedroom apartment with a fitted kitchen, renovated bathroom, air conditioning, and generally good maintenance. At €35,000 for 115 sqm, the price is compelling, but the dense urban setting, dated finishes, lack of elevator, and absence of a notable view or outdoor space keep it from feeling like a dream Italian home.
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.
- No elevator in the building.
- Energy class G implies potentially high running costs.
- Urban building facade and common areas look somewhat worn.
- Interior finishes are functional but dated and inconsistent.
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 is known for mussel farming in the Mar Piccolo and for heavy industry around the port.
