What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €38,000 for 110 sqm, the asking price is just €345/sqm, well below the local sub-€100k baseline of €706/sqm. But the description says completely to be restored, so I estimate about €1,100/sqm renovation; that lifts the effective cost to roughly €1,445/sqm, making it a decent renovation project rather than an outright steal.
More on the house and the area
The mountain backdrop, pink period facade and patterned floors give this house real romantic appeal, especially for the price. It is a genuine house rather than a ruin, with intact rooms, floors and basic layout, but it clearly needs full renovation before comfortable living. The wow comes from the setting and old-world character, not from current condition.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€44,000 – €64,000
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.
- Completely to be renovated; not move-in ready
- Visible damp, peeling plaster and very dated kitchen/bath fit-out
- Outdoor stair access and sloping plot may limit ease of use
- Roadside setting with overhead wires in the view
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.
