In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €90,000 and an estimated €700/m² renovation cost, the effective cost is about €1,033/m² for 270 m², versus the Lombardia townhouse baseline of €406/m². The description inconsistently reports 220 m² of housing plus a 140 m² rustico, whose residential recoverability is unclear, materially weakening the deal.
More on the house and the area
This is a generous, genuinely livable village house with attractive old timber ceilings, traditional tiled floors, a private courtyard, and open rural views toward distant hills or mountains. The interiors are functional but strongly dated, while the adjoining rustico adds space and character but requires serious work.
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€53,000 – €95,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- The main house is usable but clearly dated, with damp/staining visible in places and likely substantial cosmetic modernization needed.
- The 140 sqm rustico is a major renovation or storage/workshop project rather than ready living space.
- Roof condition, utilities, heating efficiency, and structural status should be verified before purchase.
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.
