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 €90,000 for 70 sqm, the asking price is about €1,286/sqm; with a habitable-condition allowance of ~€200/sqm, the effective cost is roughly €1,486/sqm. That is far above this catalog baseline of €406/sqm for Lombardia townhouses, so despite being a usable independent house with balcony/loggia, it looks expensive for this sub-€100k stock.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine livable house, not a project: complete rooms, bathroom, kitchen, heating, and some warm timber ceilings give it real usability. The best visual appeal is inside, especially the beamed living area and attic-style bedroom. But the setting is ordinary and the outdoor spaces are modest, so the wow comes more from comfort than dream-scenery.
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€5,000 – €8,000
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.
- No real view or scenic setting shown
- Exterior/courtyard is functional rather than pretty
- Interiors are dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating
- Outdoor space is small and enclosed
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.
