Abitazione con Volte a Stella
Abitazione indipendente al piano terra con giardino e garage, inoltre vi è anche una piccola cantina ed il lastrico solare di proprietà esclusiva. L'abitazione ha un'ampia metratura ed è stata interessata da un inizio di ristrutturazione ma poi è stata interrotta. La distribuzione interna è molto interessante e per niente scontata, con leggeri cambi di livello.

The €37,000 purchase price is attractive, but substantial unfinished renovation could add about €70,000, bringing the effective cost to roughly €1,070/m² versus €714/m² for comparable homes. The independent layout, garden, garage, cellar and roof terrace add value, but the total investment is not clearly discounted.
More on the house and the area
The ornate historic facade, arched portico, original details and private garden give this townhouse genuine character, while the €37,000 price is appealing. Inside, however, it is clearly an interrupted renovation with rubble, worn floors and unfinished surfaces, so it is a project rather than a move-in 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€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.
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.

- Substantial renovation is required, with rubble, damaged finishes, damp-looking walls and unfinished rooms.
- The property appears to have only one bathroom, and the kitchen/living systems are not clearly ready for use.
- The garden is overgrown and enclosed by neighboring walls, with no scenic view visible.
- Utilities, roof condition, permits and the status of the interrupted renovation should be verified.
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.
