What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Habitable 75 m² at €65,000 (€867/m²) becomes about €80,000 effective cost after estimated €15,000 of light work (€1,067/m²), versus the Emilia-Romagna townhouse baseline of €467/m². Central location, garage and heating help, but the premium is substantial and the description/photos are too limited to justify it.
More on the house and the area
This is a clean, relatively modern townhouse with a usable 75 sqm layout, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, heating, and a garage. However, the exterior is ordinary and the photos show no special views, garden, historic details, or standout interior qualities, so its appeal is mainly practical rather than dream-home visual.
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€5,000 – €8,000
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.
- Only two photos, with no interior images to verify the stated habitable condition.
- No visible garden, terrace, notable view, or distinctive historic character.
- Appears to be a compact attached townhouse in a fairly plain urban setting.
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.
