See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €80,000 (€500/m²), the property still needs major completion work including windows, heating, plumbing, finishes, facade and terraces. With an estimated €1,100/m² renovation, the effective cost is about €1,600/m²—far above the local €276/m² benchmark—despite its garden and two-apartment layout.
More on the house and the area
The strongest real feature is the generous 160 sqm layout with exposed timber roofs, tiled floors, open space and potential terraces, but there is no proven scenic view or finished garden experience in the photos. In reality this is a solid, roofed unfinished house rather than a move-in home: the renderings show an appealing result, while the actual images show substantial completion work still required.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€63,000 – €94,000
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 attractive furnished images are explicitly illustrative renderings, not the current condition.
- The property is unfinished: windows, internal doors, sanitary fixtures, heating, parts of the systems, terrace railings and facade still need completion.
- Bathrooms are tiled but currently empty and dirty, and several rooms are raw construction spaces.
- Budget and technical checks are needed before the two-apartment layout and attic conversion can be used as intended.
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.
