Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €95,000 (€792/m²), the asking price is already well above the local €413/m² benchmark; allowing roughly €700/m² for the unspecified condition would put the effective cost near €1,492/m². The description mixes living space with warehouses and an attic, while only three photos are provided, so the property’s actual habitability and renovation needs are unclear.
More on the house and the area
The attractive historic-town setting and central square give this listing some Italian character, with a private courtyard and terrace adding practical appeal. However, the property itself is not shown, and its condition is unspecified; the mixed warehouse/house layout feels more functional than dream-home beautiful.
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€24,000 – €42,000
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 gallery shows the town square rather than the house itself, so the property's interior and exterior condition cannot be verified.
- The home includes warehouses, an attic, and a garage; actual renovation needs and usability are unclear.
- Only one bathroom is listed for a 120 sqm, three-bedroom layout.
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.
