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 €30,000 for 109 sqm, the ask is just €275/sqm; with a light habitable refresh estimate of about €250/sqm, effective cost is ~€525/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €286/sqm in Molise palazzi. The very low entry price, independent entrance, 2 bathrooms, heating and decent photo set are positives, but the unfinished attic room and only 'buone condizioni' wording keep it just below diamond level.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable townhouse rather than a shell: it has finished stairs, kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms, so you could live in it from day one. The exterior has some simple old-stone village character, but the overall look is modest and the interiors are functional rather than beautiful. At €30k for 109 sqm it has strong value, though the unfinished top floor and dated decor keep the wow in the lower-mid band.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €250/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€9,000 – €15,000
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.
- Plain village-square outlook, not a scenic view
- Interiors are dated and need cosmetic updating
- Top mansard room is currently unfinished (al grezzo)
- No outdoor space or terrace shown
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.
