What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €79,000 for 160 sqm, the ask is €494/sqm; with a typical needs-renovation budget of about €700/sqm, effective cost is roughly €1,194/sqm. That is far above this catalog baseline of €350/sqm for Piemonte townhouses, so despite the good size, private garden and decent photo set, it looks only fair value for a renovation project.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, sizeable house with a private garden and countryside feel, not a shell. The value is strong for 160 sqm, and some rooms and the bathroom look usable, but widespread damp staining, tired finishes and neglected outdoor areas pull it well below dream-home level. It feels more practical than beautiful.
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€32,000 – €56,000
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.

- Interiors show visible damp/mold staining in several rooms.
- Overall presentation is plain rather than characterful, with limited wow features.
- Garden and exterior areas are overgrown and need substantial cleanup.
- Condition looks basically usable but will need real refreshing/renovation work.
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.
