What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €89,000 for 60 m², the effective cost is about €1,683/m² after a modest €200/m² habitable-condition allowance, versus a €420/m² baseline. The house is furnished and appears usable, but the price is over four times the local stock median, with condition and energy data missing.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely usable, furnished country house with a warm, practical interior, working kitchen, bathroom, heating, and attractive exposed wooden beams. The greenery, shutters, small outdoor area, and quiet rural setting add Italian countryside charm, though there is no spectacular view and the exterior is fairly plain.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
- Compact 60 sqm layout with the living space and kitchen combined.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high heating costs.
- The surrounding access and outdoor area appear somewhat rustic and unfinished.
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 61/100The cluster is in the lower Val Trebbia, with the first Ligurian Apennine hills rising just south of the built-up area. The Trebbia river runs through the area and is the main landscape feature within a few kilometres. A short drive upstream, Bobbio has a substantial historic centre and the Ponte Gobbo over the Trebbia; it is also listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia. Piacenza is the nearest larger town, with full services, rail connections and a historic centre. The area is known locally for river bathing spots, mixed wooded hills and the Val Trebbia road toward the Apennines.
