The house is described as fully renovated and includes a garage, cellar, and central village location, so little immediate work appears necessary. At €98,000 (€980/m²), it is substantially above the local €374/m² reference, making it a sound but not particularly discounted purchase.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely usable, fully renovated home with clean modern interiors, a fitted kitchen, heating, multiple bedrooms, and practical garage/cellar space. The spiral staircase and traditional shutters add modest Italian character, but the dense streetscape and lack of views, garden, or standout historic features keep it in the charming rather than dream-home category.
The listing and its photos show a house you can move into. Anything you spend beyond the price is your choice, not a repair.
- Urban village setting with no visible scenic views or private outdoor space.
- The exterior is tightly attached to neighboring buildings, some of which look substantially more weathered.
- Only one bathroom is shown, and the attic conversion would require additional work.
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 52/100This is in the lower Val Tidone on the western edge of the Emilia-Romagna plain, with cultivated fields and wine hills rising a short distance to the south. The Tidone valley and the first ridges of the Piacentine Apennines are within the local landscape. Piacenza is the nearest city of size, with a full set of services, rail connections and a substantial historic centre. The wider area is known for vineyards and wines including Gutturnio and Ortrugo, and for mixed arable farming in the plain.
