Immersa nella quiete ma a pochi passi da tutto ciò che conta — le scuole, i negozi e la vita del paese, raggiungibili con una semplice passeggiata — questa proprietà…
What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €90,000 for 245 m², the upfront price is €367/m², close to comparable local stock at €379/m². However, the property is presented as a substantial renovation project with barns and other outbuildings requiring conversion; at roughly €700/m² of works, the effective cost is about €1,067/m², well above the local benchmark.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, usable country house with a wonderfully mature private garden, outdoor dining pergola and attractive mountain views. The interiors are old-fashioned but furnished and functional, including a working kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom, so this is far more than a shell. At €90,000 for 245 sqm plus nearly 1,000 sqm of garden, the space and setting create a strong bargain effect.
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€49,000 – €86,000
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 main house appears usable but dated, with at least some updating likely needed.
- Only one bathroom is shown/listed for a very large 245 sqm property.
- The barn, woodshed, canopy and garage are additional renovation opportunities rather than finished living space.
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.
