What it really costs
Can you move in?
Move in as it is
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The apartment is in good condition, built in 2008, and only 5 km from the sea, but its effective cost is about €2,100/m² versus €773/m² for comparable local stock. The listing is new and has 8 photos, yet the premium is substantial; the listing does not say the energy class or provide condominium-cost details.
More on the house and the area
A bright, genuinely move-in-ready apartment with a handsome exposed timber ceiling, skylights, a fitted kitchen, and a clean, cohesive interior. It feels like a real usable home rather than a renovation project, though the compact size and lack of visible outdoor space or special views limit the dream factor.
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€3,000 – €5,000
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.
- Only 50 m² with one bedroom, so space is compact.
- Third-floor apartment; the gallery does not show exterior space, views, or the building entrance.
- The bathroom and kitchen are functional but fairly standard rather than high-end.
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 58/100This is on the Romagna plain close to the Adriatic coast and the Canal Port of Cesenatico, the historic canal associated with Leonardo da Vinci, is the main local feature. The coast here is low and sandy, with beaches, pinewoods and the saline wetland area around Cervia within the wider 15 km zone. Rimini and Cesena are the nearest larger centres for services, rail links and hospitals. The area is known for seaside tourism, fishing and flat agricultural land behind the coast.
