What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €82,000 for 115 sqm, the asking price is €713/sqm; assuming habitable condition from the description, the effective cost is about €913/sqm including light renovation, well above the Campania townhouse baseline of €419/sqm. The layout sounds livable and photos are adequate, but there is no clear renovated claim or stronger location premium to justify the gap.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable home rather than a project: spacious rooms, two bathrooms, a functional kitchen, and a livable salone with fireplace. The catch is that it is visually quite ordinary, with dated finishes and no special view or historic character, though the price per m² is appealing for a solid 115 sqm townhouse.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€8,000 – €13,000
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.
- No meaningful view or standout setting shown
- Interiors are dated and fairly plain despite being spacious
- Basement/garage area shows damp and rough unfinished walls
- Street-front position on a sloping road with little private outdoor space
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.
