Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The €45,000 asking price is €450/m²; allowing roughly €200/m² for a good but not fully renovated home brings the effective cost to about €650/m², well above the local €445/m² benchmark. The listing is attractively furnished and includes a double garage, but the stated five beds conflicts with the description of only two bedrooms.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, furnished two-level home with a working kitchen, two bathrooms, bedrooms, tiled floors, and generous storage/garage space, so it appears broadly livable rather than a renovation shell. The appeal is practical and value-driven rather than visually striking: décor is heavily dated, and the lower service areas need attention, but €45,000 for 100 sqm gives it solid bargain potential.
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€7,000 – €11,000
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 very dated and would benefit from substantial cosmetic updating.
- The lower utility/storage areas show damp or unfinished-looking surfaces and need inspection.
- No exterior, balcony, view, or surrounding-setting photos are shown.
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.
