What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €95,000 (€528/m²), the 180 m² townhouse is explicitly a renovation project; estimated renovation raises the effective cost to about €1,228/m² versus the €492/m² local baseline. Only one photo and no condition, year, or energy data add uncertainty.
More on the house and the area
This is a sizeable independent townhouse with a practical multi-floor layout and some outdoor area, but the available image shows only plans rather than a beautiful setting or characterful home. It may become a usable residence after substantial work, yet there is not enough visual evidence of present livability or dream-home appeal.
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€36,000 – €63,000
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.
- Advertised as a renovation opportunity; actual condition is not documented.
- Only an architectural plan is provided, with no interior or exterior photos to verify finish, light, or character.
- Renovation costs and utility status are unclear.
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 39/100The area is the lower Po plain around the Valli di Comacchio and the wetlands of the Parco regionale del Delta del Po. The Reno river runs nearby and the landscape is flat, with reclaimed farmland, canals, embankments and wetland basins. Comacchio is the nearest place of note, with a historic centre built on canals and lagoon environment. Ravenna is the nearest larger city, with full services and major early Christian monuments. The area is known for eel fishing, reclaimed marshland and birdlife in the Po Delta.
