In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Good-condition 1994 townhouse with certificate of habitability, private paved outdoor area and small pool, plus 51 photos — but the effective price (85,000 + estimated €13,400 work = ~€98,400) is about €1,469/m² vs the local median of €600/m², so it is clearly priced well above regional norms. The listing text gives energy class E while the record lacks that field, which is a minor data contradiction.
More on the house and the area
A tidy, move-in-ready townhouse with a private paved courtyard and small pool that makes it feel like a proper Italian home outdoors. Interiors are simple but comfortable and habitable—great value for the price, though compact and lacking parking or scenic views.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
- Small overall living area (67 m²) so compact rooms
- No private parking included; property in a built-up row of houses
- Energy class E — some thermal/efficiency upgrades may be desirable; one bathroom is non‑finestrato (no window)
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
