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
At €25,000 for 53 sqm, the asking price is €472/m², essentially in line with the local baseline of €476/m². With a habitable-condition allowance of about €200/m², the effective cost is roughly €672/m², so this looks ordinary rather than a standout deal despite the independent single-floor layout and private outdoor space.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely habitable little house, not a shell: it has finished rooms, a usable kitchen, bathroom and heating. But visually it is very ordinary, with dated interiors and no view, landscape or historic character to create much dream-home appeal. At €25k it has bargain value more than wow value.
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€4,000 – €6,000
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.
- Very plain exterior with no notable view or setting shown
- Interiors are dated and likely need cosmetic updating
- Kitchen is extremely compact
- Outdoor space appears small and limited

The area around
Location score 38/100The area lies on the lower Po plain, with the Po river nearby and a landscape of embanked waterways, reclaimed farmland and scattered villages. Ferrara is the nearest city of size, with a large historic centre and UNESCO status linked to the Este city and the Po Delta. The Po Delta regional park lies to the east, but outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for irrigated agriculture on the alluvial plain.
