In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
65,000 price + estimated €200/m² renovation (314 m²) → effective €127,800 or ~€406/m², about 9% below the regional baseline of €446/m²; large corner palazzetto (garage, terrace, 94 photos) described as habitable but needing cleaning and some finishing, which supports the mid-high score.
More on the house and the area
A handsome corner palazzetto right on the town's main piazza with high wooden ceilings, decorative cementine, frescoed vaults and a panoramic terrace — very photogenic and full of historic character. The property is described as habitable with a garage and separate units already renovated in part, so it’s a real, usable home that only needs finishing touches and some window replacements; excellent value for the size and location.
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€21,000 – €35,000
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.
- Some units need replacement of external windows and light finishing
- Located directly on the main piazza — may be noisy at times
- Large multi-unit layout may require reconfiguration for single-family use
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.
