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 €87,920 for 200 sqm, the ask is €440/sqm; with a habitable-home renovation allowance of about €200/sqm, effective cost is roughly €640/sqm. That is well above the local baseline of €296/sqm, so despite the large size and flexible two-unit layout, this looks only fair rather than a bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a sizeable rural property with useful space, independent units, and plenty of land, so the value per square metre is strong. But the photos show a plain farmhouse in a very ordinary agricultural setting, with overgrown grounds and no visible architectural charm or views. It may be usable, but it does not read as a dream-home wow property from the images provided.
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€13,000 – €22,000
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 exterior and satellite photos are shown, so interior charm and true condition are unproven.
- The house and grounds look neglected externally, with overgrown vegetation.
- The setting is flat agricultural countryside rather than a scenic view location.
- Likely needs updating despite being listed as habitable.
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.
