What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €85,000 for 230 sqm, the ask is only €370/sqm, but the house is 'al rustico' and fully customizable, so a full restore estimate of about €1,100/sqm is appropriate. That brings the effective cost to roughly €1,470/sqm, far above the local baseline of €350/sqm; the central location and garden help a bit, but not enough.
More on the house and the area
There is some honest rustic character in the exposed brick, timber roof structure and covered portico, plus a small private garden. But this is clearly not a ready home: the upper level is an open unfinished shell, so it reads as a substantial renovation project rather than a beautiful livable house. The low price for 230 sqm helps, but the wow is limited by condition.
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€91,000 – €135,000
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.
- Currently a rustico shell with raw, unfinished interiors
- Likely requires full fit-out for kitchen, bathroom, systems and finishes
- Courtyard setting in town center, with no view or notable privacy
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.
