What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €99,000 asking price is only €268/m² versus a €403/m² Veneto townhouse baseline, but the 370 m² 1960s property requires substantial renovation. At an estimated €800/m², effective cost is about €1,068/m² (€395,000 total), making it weak despite the large lot and central village location.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial independent village house with a fenced garden, terrace, hill backdrop and a charming old brick fireplace. It is a real, roofed and usable home rather than a ruin, but the dated interiors, weathered exterior and stated need for renovation keep it firmly in the fixer-upper category.
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, €800/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€73,000 – €130,000
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.
- Substantial renovation is needed, including exterior repairs, damp/masonry work and modernization of the interiors.
- The bathrooms and finishes are very dated, and the kitchen is not shown.
- Large 370 sqm layout may bring significant heating, maintenance and renovation costs.
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.
