What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €76,000 asking price is €411/m², but the house requires complete renovation; adding an estimated €1,100/m² brings the effective cost to about €1,511/m² versus a €475/m² Lombardia baseline. Its central village location and garden help slightly, but the renovation burden makes this weak value.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial old village house with attractive weathered façades, wooden details, a brick-paved courtyard, and a generous covered portico. However, the listing explicitly requires complete renovation, and the photos show a largely unfinished, utilitarian structure rather than a ready or lightly refreshable home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€73,000 – €108,000
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.
- Requires complete renovation before it is realistically habitable.
- Photos show mainly a worn courtyard/portico, with no finished living interiors, kitchen, or bathroom demonstrated.
- Roofing and upper-level structure should be professionally inspected.
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 39/100This is the southern fringe of the Brescia plain, with flat to lightly undulating agricultural land and dense road infrastructure around the city. The nearest town of size is Brescia, immediately to the north, with the full services, rail links and historic centre of a provincial capital. Lake Garda lies to the east but outside the 15 km landscape radius, so it affects access rather than the setting itself. The area is known mainly for mixed farming and for being part of the urban-industrial belt south of Brescia.
