Habitable and well-equipped with a garden, garage, heating and 31 photos, but the estimated effective cost is about €1,005/m² (€95,000 plus roughly €23,600 of updates), versus a local benchmark of €432/m². The location is inland and offers no strong premium to justify this gap.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, habitable detached home with a practical fitted kitchen, working bathroom, heating, garage, and a private garden with mature fruit trees. It is more comfortable and usable than visually spectacular: the setting is ordinary suburban Lombardy, and the interiors are dated rather than characterful.
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.
- The interiors are fully usable but dated, especially the bathroom and finishes.
- The garden is sizable and established, though currently somewhat untidy and lacking a polished outdoor living area.
- No notable panoramic view, historic features, or distinctive architectural character is visible.
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.
