Why this price is what it is

The facts say 'Renovated', but the description clearly says immobile allo stato grezzo, so this is a shell/to-restore project; at ~€1,159/m² effective cost (206 + 1,100) it is far above the €472/m² baseline. It has also been on the market 379 days, which is a strong negative signal and caps the score.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

The stone exterior, big timber beams and long terrace with open green hill views give this real country-house appeal. But it is clearly an unfinished shell inside: structurally there, roofed and laid out, yet not a usable home until substantial completion works are done. At €59k for 286 sqm it has dreamer value, but the wow is renovation-potential rather than move-in beauty.

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€113,000 – €167,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Sold al grezzo: no finished interiors, kitchen or bathrooms visible
  • Needs full fit-out and likely systems completion before it is livable
  • Upper openings/parts of the house still look unfinished
  • Terrace and outdoor areas need cleanup/refresh

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.
