At €80,000 (€784/m²), the apartment is below the local €858/m² benchmark before works, but estimated renovation costs of about €71,400 bring the effective cost to roughly €1,484/m². The garage and two bathrooms help, but the listing does not say when the building was constructed or provide an energy class.
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€20,000 – €36,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
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 58/100The cluster sits in and around Maranello, a town that is home to the Ferrari factory and the Museo Ferrari. The immediate surroundings are the Po Valley plain made up of agricultural land, light-industrial estates and small residential centres. Sassuolo, a nearby town known for its large ceramic-tile industry, lies within the local area. Modena is the nearest city of size and offers railway connections, university faculties and the Romanesque cathedral that is part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Modenese Apennine foothills rise to the south beyond the plain; higher slopes and winter-sport areas are farther into the Apennines. The area is known locally for motor engineering (Ferrari and related suppliers), ceramic manufacture around Sassuolo, and food products from the Modena area such as traditional balsamic vinegar and Parmigiano-Reggiano production.
