What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €65,000 price looks low, but the listing describes only a 109 m² apartment while the headline area is 424 m², apparently including land and storage. Assuming substantial work for this rustic farmhouse, the effective cost is about €1,300/m² for the dwelling, well above the €764/m² local comparison level; the condition is not clearly stated.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€84,000 – €149,000
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.
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 52/100This is flat rice-growing country in the Lomellina, between the Ticino valley and the lower Po plain. The Ticino River and Parco Lombardo della Valle del Ticino lie within reach to the east, with river woods, canals and farmland around the edge of the park. Vigevano is the nearest substantial town and has a large historic centre focused on Piazza Ducale and the Sforza Castle. The area is known for rice fields and irrigated agriculture.
