What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €70,000 (€583/m²), the asking price is already 64% above the Piemonte townhouse baseline of €355/m²; assuming €700/m² for renovation due to the unspecified condition raises the effective cost to about €1,283/m². The description is vague and provides no reliable information on habitability, systems, or building condition.
More on the house and the area
A genuine, usable 120 sqm village house with two bathrooms, finished floors, intact roofs, a large terrace, covered outdoor living space, parking, and a striking valley-and-hills panorama. The warm stucco, exposed stone, old beams, tiled roofs, fireplace/barbecue area, and charming historic fabric give it real Italian character, although the interiors are plain and dated rather than beautifully finished.
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€24,000 – €42,000
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 usable but dated and largely unfurnished.
- The house has multiple levels and exterior stairs, which may be inconvenient for some residents.
- Some exterior walls, paving, and neighboring masonry show age and would benefit from maintenance.
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.
