Why this price is what it is

At €21,000 (€420/m²), this 50 m² farmhouse still needs complete renovation, including all systems and services; estimated total cost is about €76,000, or €1,520/m². That is far above the €352/m² local benchmark, and the listing does not state bathroom, energy, or construction details.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

This old Lombard farmhouse has genuine rustic character, with exposed stone, timber beams, a traditional tiled roof, and a charming shared courtyard. However, it is explicitly a complete renovation project with no bathroom, unfinished services, and visibly poor interior and roof conditions, so it is not currently a usable home.

Comfortable€600–900/m²
€30,000 – €45,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

€60,000 – €75,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€20,000 – €29,000

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.

Asking price + this range
€81,000 – €96,000
What worries us about this house
  • Complete renovation required, including all utilities and bathroom.
  • Visible roof and structural timber deterioration need professional assessment.
  • Shared external access and courtyard setting offer limited privacy.

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 57/100

This area sits in the Brianza hills between the Lambro valley and the first prealpine belt. Montevecchia and the Curone valley are within reach, with the Parco Regionale di Montevecchia e della Valle del Curone just to the east and south-east, a protected hill landscape of woods, terraces and farmland. The Adda river is not far to the east around Imbersago and Paderno. Lecco is the nearest larger town, with a lakefront on Lake Como and rail links, but it lies beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for the settled Brianza countryside of villas, small woods, cultivated land and dense village fabric.
