In the listingRenovatedSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Although the listing says 'Renovated', the description clearly says the villa is sold 'al grezzo da ultimare' with electrical and plumbing systems still to be built, so it needs substantial completion works (~€700/m²). Effective cost is about €1,217/m² (€93,000 + ~€126,000 works over 180 m²) versus a low-stock baseline of €407/m², making it weak value despite the large size and garage.
More on the house and the area
This is a large, potentially practical townhouse with private garden space and a very low price per square metre. But the real property is still completely unfinished inside: bare brick walls, no kitchen, no bathrooms, no finished floors, and systems still to be built. It feels more like a solid project than a home you could live in soon.
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€36,000 – €63,000
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.
- Sold unfinished: interiors are raw shell only
- Electrical and plumbing systems still need to be installed
- AI-staged images may overstate the final feel
- No proven view or historic/exterior charm in the photos
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.
