What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €95,000 for 305 sqm, the ask is €311/sqm, but with a typical needs-renovation budget of about €700/sqm the effective cost is roughly €1,011/sqm. That is well above the local sub-€100k baseline of €472/sqm, so despite the large size, garden, and independent two-unit layout, this looks only fair value for a renovation project.
More on the house and the area
The renovated exterior and neat front garden give it a pleasant, aspirational look, and the 900 sqm plot adds real lifestyle appeal. But the current interior condition is largely unfinished and not yet a ready home, with several rooms still raw and needing substantial work. At €95k for 305 sqm it has strong potential value, but the wow is more in the project than the present livability.
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.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€60,000 – €107,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

The area around
Location score 42/100The Po runs by Brescello and the immediate landscape is the lower Po plain, with embankments, fields and scattered riverside settlements. Within this radius the main historic centre of size is Guastalla, which has a service-town role for the area and a planned central square. The wider setting is the flat agricultural plain between Parma, Reggio Emilia and Mantua, known for Po Valley farming and for the Don Camillo and Peppone association in Brescello itself.
