Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The asking price is €280/m², about 22% below the local €360/m² reference, and the house has a complete residential layout plus garden. However, the listing does not state the condition; allowing roughly €200/m² for updates brings the effective cost to about €480/m², so the apparent discount is not yet compelling.
More on the house and the area
A surprisingly substantial, genuinely livable 125 sqm home with a large furnished kitchen/dining room, fireplace, three bedrooms and functioning bathroom. The untidy garden has greenery and a broad valley/mountain outlook, giving the property real countryside appeal despite its ordinary exterior and dated décor. At €35,000, the size, livability and view create strong bargain appeal.
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 – €14,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- The garden is overgrown and the exterior needs tidying and maintenance.
- Only one bathroom is shown; utilities, heating and structural condition are not specified.
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.
