What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €112/m², the apparent price is attractive versus the €160/m² Lombardy baseline, but this 680 m² mixed commercial/residential palazzo is explicitly a transformation project with no rooms, bathrooms, or condition data. Allowing roughly €700/m² renovation brings the effective cost to about €812/m² (€552,000 total), making it weak for a livable-home buyer.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large roadside property with an old Italian-town facade and substantial floor area, but it lacks a scenic setting, garden, or compelling historic interiors. The gallery shows tired commercial rooms with serious cosmetic and possible moisture issues, so it is a major conversion project rather than a realistically livable home today.
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€135,000 – €239,000
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 property appears to be a former commercial space rather than a ready home, with no bedrooms or bathrooms shown.
- Extensive peeling, damp staining, worn finishes, and graffiti indicate substantial renovation is needed.
- Conversion to residential use, utilities, and planning permissions should be verified.
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 52/100This is the flat lower Po plain south of Pavia, with irrigated fields, canals and scattered farmsteads. The Ticino flows west of here and the Parco del Ticino begins within this radius, with riverside woods and wetland areas. Pavia is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre, the Certosa di Pavia just beyond it, and rail links and services. The area is known for rice country and mixed Po Valley agriculture.
