At €29,000 (€319/m²), the entry price is low, but the home is sold in unfinished shell condition and may require about €100,100 of renovation, bringing the effective cost near €1,418/m². The private garden, garage and fireplace add appeal, but the remote location and heavy renovation burden weaken the deal.
More on the house and the area
The mountain panorama and green private garden are genuinely special, while the old shutters, fireplace and simple rural architecture provide authentic character. However, this is a renovation project rather than a move-in home: the interiors are raw and unfinished despite the solid-looking structure and roof.
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€36,000 – €53,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- The property is explicitly sold al grezzo and needs substantial renovation before it is comfortably habitable.
- Interiors are very basic, with unfinished ceilings and concrete floors; kitchen, bathroom systems, heating and utilities need verification.
- The steep rural setting may mean limited access and ongoing maintenance for the garden and surrounding land.
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.
