What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Although the asking price is €890/m², the farmhouse is explicitly to be renovated; allowing about €110,000 for works brings the effective cost near €1,990/m², over six times the local comparison level of €315/m². The listing has good photo coverage and parking, but its rural location and substantial renovation burden do not justify this premium.
More on the house and the area
The stone farmhouse exterior has genuine rustic character, mature greenery, and a pleasing countryside atmosphere. However, the property is explicitly sold as needing renovation, and there is no proven panoramic view or standout interior; it feels more like a promising project than a ready dream home.
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€40,000 – €59,000
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.
- Advertised as needing renovation, so it is not clearly move-in ready.
- Only the exterior is shown; interior condition, utilities, roof, and access need verification.
- This is a portion of a farmhouse, which may limit privacy and renovation options.
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.
