What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €602/m², the asking price is already 46% above the Emilia-Romagna country-house baseline of €412/m²; assuming €500/m² for unspecified condition raises the effective cost to about €1,102/m². The 49 photos, garage, and garden help, but the condition and key property details are missing.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, functioning country home rather than a renovation shell, with a usable kitchen, bathroom, finished floors, sound roof, garage, and generous garden. Its strongest feature is the beautiful open mountain-and-valley outlook, framed by mature trees and greenery. The interiors are old-fashioned rather than dreamlike, but the setting and livability make it a compelling cheap Italian 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.
Our read of the photos, €500/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€10,000 – €16,000
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 appear solid and usable but distinctly dated, with cosmetic modernization likely needed.
- The garden and surrounding greenery will require regular maintenance.
- Only one bedroom and one bathroom are shown in the listing facts; utilities, heating performance, and legal status are not confirmed.
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 68/100The area is in the Parma Apennines, with wooded ridges, pasture and small valleys. The Enza valley is nearby, and the Tuscan-Emilian Apennine National Park lies to the south within this part of the province. The nearest skiing is the Schia area on Monte Caio, roughly a 30-minute drive, with larger lifts farther south around Cerreto Laghi. Parma is the nearest city of size, with full services, rail connections and major historic monuments. This part of the Apennines is known for hill agriculture and for Parmigiano Reggiano production.
