What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The description explicitly says 'da ristrutturare', so despite the structured condition saying 'Habitable' I price it as a renovation project at about €700/m²; that gives an effective cost around €803/m² (€25k + ~€169k works on 242 m²). Against a Piemonte townhouse baseline of €350/m² this is not cheap after renovation, but the very low entry price, large size, central location, 34 photos and no legal red flags keep it in the strong-project range.
More on the house and the area
There is some rustic appeal in the old beams, the courtyard arcades and the large attached garden, and 242 sqm at €25k has obvious bargain pull. But this reads as a big restoration project rather than a home you could comfortably live in soon: the rooms are rough, cluttered and visibly worn, with no functional living spaces shown.
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€48,000 – €85,000
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 full renovation despite the 'habitable' label
- Interiors show cracks, peeling finishes and very basic unusable rooms
- No kitchen or bathrooms are visible in the photo set
- Setting is central village street, with no view and limited 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.
