In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Large, well-photographed villa with ~7,000 m2 of land but an estimated effective price of about €1,017/m2 (€65,000 + €150/m2 renovation) is ~74% above the local median €585/m2, so it looks overpriced for the area. The listing says “ottimo stato” yet shows energy class G in the text, a contradictory claim to be checked.
More on the house and the area
A very distinctive, chalet-style villa set in about 7,000 sqm of pine woodland with terraces, stone detail, exposed beams and a working fireplace — a real, characterful home. Internally it is habitable but dated and would benefit from cosmetic updates and energy/insulation improvements.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €150/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€4,000 – €6,000
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.
- Cosmetic updating needed (floors, finishes, some fixtures).
- Energy rating poor (APE G) — expect higher heating costs / insulation work.
- Remote, wooded location — car required and seasonal access/maintenance likely.
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.
