In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €68,000 plus an estimated €84,000 renovation budget, the effective cost is about €1,267/m² versus a local reference of €242/m². Its historic-center setting and double access add appeal, but the description says it needs substantial updating despite being labeled habitable, with dated single-glazed windows and a storage level.
More on the house and the area
A genuine historic-borgo house with traditional tiled roofs, brickwork, shutters, cobbled lanes, and a lived-in interior with kitchen, heating, bathroom, and bedrooms. It is a real usable home rather than an empty shell, but the dated finishes and rough storage level make it a renovation project rather than a polished dream home.
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€24,000 – €42,000
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 home is habitable but clearly dated and needs modernization, especially the kitchen, bathroom, finishes, and windows.
- The lower-level storage/magazzino areas are rough and cluttered rather than finished living space.
- Historic-center access is via very narrow cobbled lanes, with no private garden or meaningful outdoor space visible.
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.
