At €85,000 (€224/m²), the estimated effective cost is about €424/m² after habitable-condition work, almost exactly in line with comparable local homes at €434/m². The very sparse listing, with only one photo and no building year or energy information, makes the claimed condition difficult to verify.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large, genuine country townhouse with a broad garden and impressive space for the price, but its plain rural setting offers little visual drama. It is advertised as habitable with heating and a garage, yet the visibly worn exterior keeps it in the practical-bargain rather than dream-home category.
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€25,000 – €43,000
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 facade appears heavily weathered and likely needs substantial cosmetic renovation.
- Only one exterior photo is provided, so the interior condition and actual livability cannot be verified.
- The property is in a flat, rural setting without a notable scenic view or historic character shown.
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 58/100This is the lower Po plain between Ravenna and the Comacchio wetlands, with flat reclaimed farmland, drainage canals and embanked watercourses. The Reno river runs nearby, and the Valli di Comacchio lagoon system begins to the east within the wider Po Delta environment. Parts of the Po Delta Regional Park lie within this area, especially the wetland and pinewood zones toward the coast. Ravenna is the nearest city of size, with major Byzantine monuments and UNESCO sites. The area is known for reclaimed lowland agriculture and for the wetlands and birdlife of the Po Delta.
