What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €87,000 for 190 sqm, the asking price is €458/sqm; with the description focused on customization and no clear condition stated, I estimate ~€700/sqm renovation, bringing effective cost to about €1,158/sqm. That is far above the local cheap-stock baseline of €331/sqm, so despite the large size the deal looks weak; only 1 photo and missing condition data add uncertainty.
More on the house and the area
This looks like a large, usable single-storey house with a very tidy garden, so it reads as a real home rather than a project. But from the only photo shown, the architecture is plain and there is no proven view, historic charm, or standout setting. The low price for 190 sqm helps, yet the wow factor is modest.
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€38,000 – €67,000
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.
- Only one exterior photo, so interior character and true condition are unproven
- Exterior looks plain rather than photogenic or historic
- Listing suggests scope to personalize, which may mean dated finishes
- Setting appears practical and suburban-rural, not scenic
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.
The area around
Location score 35/100This is flat Po Valley country, with fields, drainage canals and levees between the lower Adige and Po systems. The Po is the main named landscape feature in this part of the province, with river embankments and riparian strips within the wider area. Badia Polesine is the nearest town of some size, with everyday services and a historic center. The area is known for agriculture and for the network of reclaimed lowland farmland typical of the Polesine.
