What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Habitable independent townhouse, 95sqm at 726 EUR/m2. Baseline median is 405 EUR/m2, so this is ~1.8x the local median, weakening the apparent bargain. However it's fully detached with garden, cellar, garage, no condo fees, and needs only moderate work (bathroom, some windows, systems review) — roughly 350 EUR/m2 renovation. Fresh listing (2 days). Missing energy class. The premium over baseline is justified by independence and condition, but it's not a standout deal; solidly fair.
More on the house and the area
Ordinary terraced/semi-detached house in a quiet hamlet of Casalpusterlengo, Lombardia. Exterior is dated and worn with cracked/peeling render and old balcony. Private garden and cellar are practical pluses but not visually striking. Interiors appear tidy but are explicitly optimized/staged and still need renovation. Low price per sqm (€726/m2) offers some value, but nothing here stops the scroll—no standout views, architecture, or setting.
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.
Our read of the photos, €350/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€11,000 – €19,000
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 area around
Location score 31/100This is the lower Po plain between the Adda and Po river systems, with flat agricultural land and scattered irrigation channels. The Po is the main nearby river landscape to the south, and the Adda runs west of the area. Casalpusterlengo is the nearest town of size for daily needs, and Lodi and Piacenza are the nearest larger centres with fuller services and rail connections. The area is known for intensive farming and dairy production in the Padana plain.
