Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The €75,000 asking price is only €197/m², but allowing roughly €700/m² for an energy-G rural property with extensive rustici brings the effective cost to about €897/m², well above the local comparison level of €419/m². The listing does not state the house’s condition or construction year, so the apparent discount carries substantial renovation uncertainty.
More on the house and the area
A remarkably characterful, symmetrical country house with elegant historic detailing, a huge enclosed garden and extensive rural outbuildings. The main house appears genuinely usable, with a fitted kitchen, tiled floors, heating and multiple bathrooms, though it is dated and the exterior needs repair. At €75,000 for roughly 380 sqm plus about 3,000 sqm of land, the scale and setting create a strong bargain effect.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€75,000 – €133,000
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 façade shows significant peeling plaster, exposed brick and general maintenance needs.
- Interiors appear usable, but dated and in need of cosmetic updating.
- Large rural outbuildings, animal shelters and extensive grounds will require ongoing upkeep; energy class G.
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 38/100This is the Lomellina plain between the Po and Ticino systems, with flat farm country around Mede and a landscape dominated by arable fields and rice country. The Agogna runs through Mede, and the Po is a few kilometres to the south near Breme and Sartirana. Vigevano is the nearest larger town of note, with a substantial historic centre centred on Piazza Ducale and the Castello Sforzesco. The area is known for rice cultivation and irrigated agriculture.
