At €43,056 (€406/m²), this habitable 106 m² apartment has an estimated all-in cost of about €64,256, or €606/m² after modest updating—roughly 21% below comparable local stock. It also offers a garage, cellar, balcony, terrace, heating and 33 photos, with no concrete warning signs in the listing.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable apartment rather than an empty shell, with heating, a kitchen, a finished bedroom, balcony, terrace, garage, and cellar. However, the house has little visual glamour: the façade is tired, interiors are cluttered and partly unfinished-looking, and the only character comes from old shutters and exposed timber beams.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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 exterior and several interiors are visibly worn, with peeling finishes, rough floors, and deteriorated woodwork.
- No bathroom is listed in the facts, so basic usability should be verified despite the 'habitable' description.
- The covered wooden access balcony appears weathered and may require repair.
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.
