In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €59,000 (€694/m²), this habitable townhouse is already about 49% above the local €467/m² benchmark; allowing roughly €200/m² for updates brings the effective cost to about €894/m². The garage, cellar, heating and 10 photos add appeal, but the listing does not state the energy class and offers only limited detail on the claimed renovation.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable, renovated stone house with strong historic character, exposed beams, a balcony, and a generous grassy garden. The interior is comfortable and equipped for everyday living, though practical rather than luxurious, and there is no notable panoramic view.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€6,000 – €9,000
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.
- Interiors are functional but fairly basic and dated.
- No verified energy rating is provided.
- The surrounding buildings include an unfinished masonry structure, which reduces the visual polish.
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 61/100This is hill country in the northern Apennines, with wooded ridges and mixed farmland around the Tresinaro valley. The Tuscan-Emilian Apennines rise to the south within this radius. Castellarano is the nearest larger town and has the usual services; Sassuolo and Scandiano are the main larger centres used for daily needs beyond that. The area is known for ceramic industry on the plain side around Sassuolo, while the hills around Baiso are a transition zone of woods, pasture and small hamlets.
