The listing is explicitly a 'rustico ad uso deposito' / 'deposito, magazzino o ricovero mezzi', so it is not being sold as a legal dwelling and fails the primary habitability check. Although the ask is only €39,000 (€111/m²) for 350 m², that price is consistent with storage use and not comparable to a livable farmhouse baseline.
More on the house and the area
The ivy-covered brick farmhouse has some rustic charm, and the surrounding fields give it a pleasant countryside feel. But the photos show a storage building with clear roof failure and no evidence of usable interiors, so this reads as a project rather than a home you could realistically live in soon. At the low price and large size it has bargain appeal, but condition and use severely limit the dream factor.
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€69,000 – €123,000
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.

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 59/100The cluster lies in the first Apennine hills west of Bologna, in a landscape of ridges, small valleys, woodland, vineyards and mixed farmland. The Samoggia valley is the main local river corridor. The area is known for wine, especially the Colli Bolognesi hills, and for agricultural countryside on the Bologna-Modena side of Emilia. Bazzano, one of the main centres nearby, has a hilltop fortress above the town. Bologna is the nearest major city and provides the full range of services, rail connections and airport access, but it is outside the immediate landscape score.
