At €80,000 (€500/m²), the estimated all-in cost is about €112,000, or €700/m² after allowing for habitable-condition work. That is roughly 62% above comparable local pricing, though the property offers two independent units, heating, terrace and cellar.
More on the house and the area
A substantial, usable 160 sqm home with two units, a functioning kitchen, heating, bathrooms, terrace and attractive Italian character including terrazzo floors, exposed beams and traditional tile. It is more charming and practical than spectacular, with dated finishes and at least one rougher room requiring renovation, but €80,000 offers strong space-for-money appeal.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/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€11,000 – €18,000
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.
- Generally habitable, but some rooms are dated and need cosmetic updating.
- One upper room has visibly worn plaster and flooring, suggesting additional renovation work.
- No prominent landscape view or private garden is shown; the terrace appears modest.
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.

Pavia is the nearest city of size, with a historic centre and services, and Voghera is the nearer market town on the plain. This part of the Oltrepò is known for wine production, especially vineyards on rolling marl and clay hills.
