At €95,000 for 400 sqm, the ask is €238/sqm; assuming a habitable/partly updated standard despite the 'Renovated' label, effective cost is about €438/sqm including ~€200/sqm renovation, still below the Lazio villa baseline of €583/sqm. Large size, garage/terraces and 24 photos support value, but the description suggests mixed-use/technical spaces and not all 400 sqm are likely finished residential area.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large independent house with useful extras: terraces, garage, portico and some land, so the value-for-size is strong. But the photos show a mostly plain building and many unfinished or rough interior spaces, so it reads more as a practical renovation project than a dream-home scroll stopper. It feels structurally real and usable in parts, not a ruin, yet far from the top wow band.
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€26,000 – €44,000
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.
- Large parts are unfinished or mid-renovation, not truly move-in ready
- Exterior is plain and not especially photogenic
- No compelling view shown, despite terrace and semi-rural setting
- Likely needs significant spending to make all 400 sqm fully usable
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.
