At €1,056/m², the asking price is about 2.5 times the €416/m² level typical for comparable homes, rising to roughly €1,356/m² after allowing for €300/m² of work. The listing mentions new windows but does not state the overall condition; the G energy rating and mismatch between the stated room/bedroom counts add uncertainty.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, usable detached country house with a furnished kitchen, functioning bathroom, new windows, and a sizeable private garden with mature fruit trees. It lacks a dramatic view or distinctive historic character, and the interiors and outdoor spaces feel practical rather than beautiful, but it appears suitable for living with mainly cosmetic updating.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €300/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€9,000 – €15,000
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.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high running costs and future efficiency work.
- The garden is private and mature but currently needs considerable landscaping and maintenance.
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.
