Casa bifamiliare in Via Quartiere - Runco 177
UNA CASA TUTTA TUA, AL PREZZO DI UN APPARTAMENTO Ci sono immobili che colpiscono per il lusso, altri per le dimensioni. E poi ci sono case che hanno una qualità forse ancora più importante: hanno senso. Senso per gli spazi che offrono, per la loro semplicità, per la possibilità di viverle senza dover affrontare necessariamente una...
What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €538/m², the asking price is already about 10% above the Emilia-Romagna townhouse baseline of €491/m² before estimated €200/m² for unspecified works. The description is truncated and omits condition, energy class, and construction year, so there is no clear value advantage despite the garden and 24 photos.
More on the house and the area
A solid, spacious townhouse that appears immediately livable, with a full kitchen, finished floors, generous bedrooms, and a comfortable living/dining layout. Its appeal is practical rather than spectacular: vintage cabinetry and patterned tile add personality, but there are no standout views, exterior features, or high-impact historic details shown.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Interiors are clean and usable but distinctly dated, especially the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, and furnishings.
- The gallery does not show the exterior, garden, roof, or surrounding setting, so these cannot be assessed.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a 106 sqm, two-bedroom home.
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.
