What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €57,000 asking price is attractive at €313/m² versus the €475/m² baseline, but the house is completely to renovate; even allowing for partially renewed slabs and roof, estimated all-in cost is about €220,800 (€1,213/m²). Condition and building details are incomplete, making this a weak renovation deal despite the large size.
More on the house and the area
This large central village property has appealing historic character, including arched passageways, old shutters, stone paving and a private courtyard/garden. However, the photos show a seriously neglected, largely raw renovation project rather than a usable home, so its beauty is mainly in the bones and potential.
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, €900/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€36,000 – €64,000
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.
- Completely to renovate, with visibly deteriorated plaster, masonry and outbuildings.
- The listing notes that only the floors/ceiling structures and part of the roof were previously renovated; full roof condition needs verification.
- No finished interiors, kitchen or bathrooms are shown, so it is not currently a move-in home.
- The courtyard/garden areas appear overgrown and may require substantial clearance and rebuilding.
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.
