What it really costs

Move in as it is
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The house is described as ready to inhabit, with a garden, parking, independent heating and a sound roof; allowing about €200/m² for normal buyer-side improvements gives an effective cost near €1,457/m². That is substantially above the €510/m² local comparison level, while the listing offers no strong location premium such as immediate lake or seaside access.
More on the house and the area
This is a highly photogenic, move-in-ready stone house with exposed beams, warm terracotta floors, a substantial fireplace, fitted kitchen, and attractive traditional details. The small garden and parking add practicality, while the excellent roof and overall condition make it a genuinely usable home rather than a renovation project.
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€5,000 – €8,000
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.
- The private outdoor space appears small and largely functional rather than a substantial garden.
- There is no clearly documented panoramic view, and the home is in a residential village setting rather than an isolated countryside location.
- Only one bathroom is shown for the three-bed layout.
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.
