At €497/m², the €89,500 asking price is below the local €561/m² benchmark, with substantial added value from the second unit, 2,000+ m² private garden and garage. The main home is described as largely renovated, but also as still being completed, while the included adjacent property is only 50% renovated; allowing roughly €250/m² for remaining work keeps this a solid but not exceptional deal.
More on the house and the area
A genuine, spacious and immediately usable townhouse with warm rustic character: terracotta floors, wood detailing, a functioning-looking kitchen, two bathrooms, bedrooms, heating, air conditioning and a distinctive ceramic stove. The exterior is fairly ordinary and there is no visible scenic view, but this is clearly a real home rather than a renovation shell, with cosmetic updating likely more relevant than major structural work.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €250/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€15,000 – €25,000
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.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high running costs.
- The included adjacent property is only about 50% renovated and will require substantial work.
- The small garden/dehors is described as still being completed; the large private park and garage are not visible in the photos.
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 49/100This is the lower Po plain, with flat reclaimed farmland and drainage canals around the branches of the Po; the Po di Volano and the Po di Goro are the main nearby waterways in this part of the province. The Po Delta Regional Park lies nearby, especially toward the east around the Mesola woods, lagoons and wetlands. Ferrara is the nearest city of size, with a large historic centre and UNESCO status shared with the Po Delta. The area is known for arable farming and for the delta landscapes of water, embankments and fishing valleys farther east.
