The 84 m² rustico requires a total renovation: adding an estimated €92,400 to the €58,000 asking price gives roughly €1,790/m², far above the €380/m² local benchmark. The listing also does not state the current residential status or confirm that the proposed conversion is approved.
More on the house and the area
This has authentic Lombard farmhouse character, with old brickwork, traditional roof tiles, and a small private garden in a settled cascina courtyard. However, the property is visibly unfinished and deteriorated, with open or boarded openings and no usable interior presented, so it is a substantial renovation project rather than a home you could move into.
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€33,000 – €49,000
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.
- Total renovation required; this is currently a rustic shell rather than a livable home.
- No finished interior, kitchen, bathroom, or usable residential spaces are shown.
- Roof, structure, utilities, permits, and renovation costs require careful verification.
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.
