In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €83,700 (€468/m²), the asking price is slightly above the local €400/m² benchmark; after allowing about €35,800 for habitable-condition works, the effective cost is roughly €668/m². The listing mentions heating and a kitchen, but does not say how many bathrooms there are or provide construction and energy details.
More on the house and the area
A sunny, characterful townhouse with terracotta roofs, balconies, secure gates, and a small leafy garden gives it genuine curb appeal. It is described as habitable with autonomous heating and a kitchen, and the generous 179 sqm at €83,700 strengthens the value proposition. However, the lack of interior images and the unverified bathroom count keep it well below dream-home territory.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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 finishes cannot be verified.
- The listing records zero bathrooms, which may be missing data but requires clarification.
- The setting is a dense suburban neighborhood rather than a distinctive historic or panoramic location.
- Several aerial and panorama images are explicitly illustrative and do not depict the property or its immediate surroundings.
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.
