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
At €85,000 for 179 sqm, the ask is €475/sqm; with a habitable-home estimate of about €200/sqm renovation, the effective cost is roughly €675/sqm versus a €407/sqm baseline for Lombardia townhouses. The large size, exclusive garden/orto and immediate availability are positives, but as-priced it sits well above this catalog's low-end baseline, so it looks only fair rather than a standout bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house rather than a shell: it has a kitchen, bathroom, heating, bedrooms and decent overall solidity. The wow is modest though—photos show a very dated interior and a scruffy orto/courtyard area, with little architectural character or view. The low €/m² and private vegetable garden give it some appeal for a practical buyer, not a dream-home fantasy.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Interior is dated and needs clear cosmetic updating.
- Only one bathroom, and it looks narrow/old-fashioned.
- Shared courtyard access reduces privacy.
- Outdoor space is currently rough and not yet an attractive garden.
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.
