What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €65,000 for 337 sqm, the asking price is just €193/sqm versus a €423/sqm local baseline, a strong discount. The text says it is ideal for creating a custom home, which points to a real renovation project rather than turnkey condition; assuming about €700/sqm works still leaves it attractive for a very large detached house with private yard.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large detached country house with its own yard, and at €65k for 337 sqm the size-for-price is striking. But the wow factor is low: the exterior is plain and the location looks more agricultural than romantic, with no notable views or historic character. It is a real roofed house with bathrooms and usable volume, yet the interior shows clear damp, worn floors and stripped-out living spaces, so it feels more like a heavy renovation project than a dream-ready home.
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€67,000 – €118,000
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.
- Needs major interior refurbishment before comfortable living
- Visible damp/mold staining and deteriorated finishes
- Interiors are largely empty with incomplete/very basic kitchen setup
- Setting appears flat and practical rather than scenic or picturesque
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 52/100This is the eastern Po plain, with flat agricultural land cut by drainage canals and embankments. The Po di Volano runs through this part of the province, and the lower Po delta lies nearby, with wetlands and lagoon landscapes toward Comacchio. Ferrara is the nearest city of size, with a large historic centre and UNESCO status as part of Ferrara, City of the Renaissance, and its Po Delta. The area is known for reclaimed farmland, waterways, and Delta produce such as rice and eel around Comacchio.
