What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €59,000 for 158 sqm, the ask is €373/sqm, but the description says da ristrutturare, so the effective cost is about €1,073/sqm including renovation. The local baseline (€385/sqm) is weak because, so this looks only fair on absolute plausibility rather than a clear bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a real house rather than a ruin: it has floors, radiators, bathrooms and usable room layouts, so the structure looks basically livable with renovation rather than a shell. But the photos show very little beauty or atmosphere—plain exterior, basic interiors, and no views—so the dream factor is low despite the very cheap price per square metre. It feels practical and spacious, not romantic.
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€31,000 – €55,000
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.
- Needs renovation and updating throughout
- Exterior courtyard is mostly concrete and not especially attractive
- No notable views or standout historic character shown
- Ancillary box/garage appears basic sheet-metal quality
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.
