Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €49,000 (€700/m²), the 70 m² apartment is priced above the local €600/m² benchmark, though the 33 m² independent storage room and historic-center location add value. The description says Ischitella while the listing identifies Carpino, and the home’s condition is not fully documented; it is described as being in good condition.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely livable, furnished apartment in Ischitella’s historic center, with attractive terrazzo floors, arched openings, balconies, autonomous heating, and a substantial extra storage room. It has real character and excellent value at €49,000, but the setting is dense rather than scenic and the interiors are comfortable and dated rather than spectacular.
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.
- Interiors are well maintained but dated, especially the kitchen and bathroom.
- No private garden or meaningful open view; balconies face a dense historic-center setting.
- Access and parking may be constrained by the narrow borgo streets.
- The 33 sqm ground-floor storage room is useful but its exact condition and legal status should be verified.
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.
