At €72,380 (€1,005/m²), this habitable 72 m² apartment is priced well above comparable local stock; allowing about €14,400 for ordinary updates brings the effective cost to roughly €1,205/m². The historic-center location and cellar add value, but the listing does not say how many bathrooms it has.
More on the house and the area
The interiors shown are bright, polished, and modern, but they lack the distinctive Italian historic character or compelling views that would create a strong dream-home effect. The apartment is described as habitable with heating and a cellar, yet the apparent stock imagery and missing bathroom information make real-world livability uncertain.
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€5,000 – €8,000
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 gallery appears to use generic or illustrative stock images rather than clearly documenting this specific apartment.
- The listing records zero bathrooms, so bathroom availability and condition need verification.
- No historic character, terrace, garden, or genuine view is shown despite the central-historic-location description.
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.
