What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The listing says 'completamente da ristrutturare', so I used about €1,100/m² renovation, making the effective cost roughly €1,544/m² (€40,000 + ~€99,000 works over 90 m²) versus a €432/m² baseline. the listing mark it as 'Habitable' and there is only 1 photo, so the data are contradictory and the asking price is weak for a full restoration project.
More on the house and the area
The facade is neat and pleasantly presented, with a charming stair-and-balcony entrance that looks more inviting than the price suggests. But the listing text explicitly says it is completely to be renovated, so this is a project rather than a ready dream home. With only one exterior photo, there is no proof of views, interior beauty or real farmhouse character.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€36,000 – €53,000
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.
- Description says it is completely to be renovated despite the tidy exterior photo.
- Only one photo, so interior character, views and true condition are unproven.
- Outdoor space appears to be a small courtyard rather than substantial land.
- Likely needs full modernization to become a comfortable full-time home.
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.
