What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €75,000 for 180 m², the €417/m² asking price is near the Piemonte baseline of €399/m², but the properties are largely unfinished or completely to restore. Estimated all-in cost is about €273,000 (€1,517/m²), with the description also creating uncertainty over the actual included surface and number of buildings.
More on the house and the area
A charming Piedmontese compound with a traditional yellow farmhouse, mature greenery, generous outdoor space, and a genuine panoramic view over the surrounding hills. The main house is a real, furnished home rather than a ruin, but it is tired and needs meaningful modernization; the additional buildings are unfinished projects, limiting the overall wow factor.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€71,000 – €105,000
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 package includes at least one house completely to renovate and another unfinished structure with only shell and roof.
- The main furnished house appears usable but is very dated, with peeling ceilings, worn finishes, and only one bathroom.
- Substantial renovation, systems checks, and clarification of the legal status of all three buildings will be needed.
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.
