At €530/m², the asking price is already above comparable local stock at about €420/m². The three-level country house’s condition is not stated, so allowing roughly €700/m² for an unverified renovation puts the effective cost near €1,230/m².
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, furnished country home with strong rustic character: exposed beams, decorative ceilings, traditional fireplaces, and old wooden furniture. It appears livable rather than a shell, but the kitchen, finishes, clutter, and visible maintenance issues keep it well below dream-home level.
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€20,000 – €35,000
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.
- Clearly usable but dated, cluttered, and in need of cosmetic renovation.
- Visible peeling paint and damp-looking patches should be checked carefully.
- No standout view is shown, and the single bathroom may limit full-time practicality.
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 72/100The area sits in the Modenese Apennines, with wooded ridges and mid-mountain farmland around Monte Cimone to the southwest. The Panaro valley is nearby, and the Regional Park of the Sassi di Roccamalatina lies within this area, with sandstone spires and forested slopes. The nearest ski lifts are on Monte Cimone around Sestola, roughly 35–45 minutes by road. The nearest larger town is Vignola, with everyday services, and Modena is the main city for higher-level services and rail connections. The area is known for chestnuts, mountain villages, and for the Sassi di Roccamalatina rock formations.
