The €27,000 purchase price is attractive, but a complete renovation at roughly €1,100/m² brings the estimated total to about €115,000, or €1,438/m² versus €403/m² for comparable local homes. The description says there are two bedrooms while the listing facts report three beds, which should be verified.
More on the house and the area
This is a modest two-storey townhouse with a practical central location, but it has little visual character, outdoor appeal, or view. The roof appears intact and the rooms have existing floors and a bathroom, yet severe damp, mold, damaged plaster, and outdated finishes make it a substantial renovation project rather than a realistically move-in-ready home.
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€32,000 – €47,000
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.
- Complete renovation is required, not merely cosmetic updating.
- Visible damp, mold, peeling plaster, and ceiling damage suggest significant moisture remediation.
- The small exterior area is gravelled and offers no meaningful garden or view.
- Utilities, roof condition, and structural soundness are not confirmed.
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 32/100This is the lower Po plain, with flat agricultural land cut by drainage canals and embanked rivers; the Adige runs nearby and the Po is not far to the south. The nearest town of size is Rovigo, which provides the main services and rail links for this part of the plain. The wider area is known for arable farming on reclaimed lowland.
