What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €49,000 (€209/m²), the 234 m² house needs renovation; estimated all-in cost is about €213,000, or €909/m² versus the Lombardia townhouse baseline of €406/m². The private garden, parking and 50 photos are positives, but the renovation burden makes the effective price weak.
More on the house and the area
This is a sizeable traditional brick townhouse with strong historic character, a pleasant leafy setting, and private garden space. However, the interior is currently an uninhabitable renovation shell with bare floors, exposed masonry, unfinished openings, and no visible kitchen or functioning bathroom, so it is a project rather than a ready-to-live-in dream 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€46,000 – €82,000
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.
- Major renovation is required: interiors are stripped to exposed brick and unfinished floors.
- No usable kitchen or bathroom is visible in the gallery despite the listed two bathrooms.
- Signs of damp, deteriorated plaster, and possible structural work should be investigated.
- The private front and rear garden are attractive but appear modest and basic.
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 36/100The cluster lies on the Po Plain (Pianura Padana): flat, low-lying agricultural countryside. The Oglio river corridor runs a few kilometres to the west and the local landscape is crossed by irrigation channels and small drainage tributaries typical of lower Mantova. There are no mountains, lakes or coastline within about 15 km. The nearest city of regional size, Mantova, is roughly 35–40 km to the east; within 15 km the settlements are small market communes and Asola itself is the local service centre (population ~9,800). Land use around the cluster is intensive agriculture (arable crops, dairy, market gardening) with rural roads and farm infrastructure.
