What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €70,000 (€412/m²), the apparent discount to the €475/m² baseline is modest; allowing about €34,000 (€200/m²) for unspecified condition brings the effective cost to roughly €612/m². The central village location and 63 photos help, but the missing condition data limits confidence.
More on the house and the area
A generously sized, lived-in country house with attractive traditional details: painted ceiling beams, original terrazzo floors, bright rooms, and a warm, established interior. It is not a polished dream home and lacks dramatic views, but €70,000 for 170 sqm with garden potential is a compelling bargain; expect updating rather than a turnkey finish.
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€11,000 – €19,000
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.
- The home is clearly livable but dated, with visible damp or plaster deterioration in the narrow kitchen.
- Only one bathroom is listed for a large 170 sqm, four-bedroom home.
- The advertised garden/exclusive outdoor area is not shown in the gallery, and heating appears older.
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 37/100This is the western Brescian plain, part of the irrigated lowland between Brescia and Cremona, with fields, canals and scattered farmsteads. The river Oglio runs a few kilometres east and is the main natural feature within reach. Manerbio is the nearest town of some size and has the usual services and rail links; Brescia is farther north for a larger city.
