In the listingNeeds renovation- On the market for a long time
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €80,000 for 215 sqm, the asking price is only €372/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €472/sqm, but the home is explicitly 'da ristrutturare': adding about €700/sqm renovation brings the effective cost to roughly €1,072/sqm, well above baseline. Good size, garden and garage help, but 269 days on market is a clear negative and suggests buyers have resisted this price.
More on the house and the area
This is a large rural house with useful land, a solid roofline and a real sense of space, so it feels like a genuine property rather than a ruin. But the photos show very basic, partly raw interiors and dated service areas, meaning you are buying a serious renovation project, not a charming ready-to-live Italian dream home. The value per square metre is strong, yet the visual wow is modest.
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€43,000 – €76,000
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.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- Interiors are largely unfinished and need substantial renovation.
- Rustic annexes/outbuildings also appear worn and may need separate work.
- No attractive views or standout historic features are proven in the photos.
- Rural setting is pleasant but close to a road and not especially private or dramatic.
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 42/100This cluster is in the built-up area of Reggio Emilia, on the central Po plain. The Crostolo runs through the city and the Secchia is just to the east. The nearest mountain landscape is the northern Apennine foothills to the south, but they are outside the immediate 15 km surroundings. Reggio Emilia is a provincial capital with a substantial historic centre, theatres, museums and full city services.
