Why this price is what it is

Asking €23,000 for 150 m² but described as “da ristrutturare”; estimated renovation €700/m² → effective cost ≈ €128,000 (≈€853/m²) vs regional baseline €497/m², so total cost is well above typical. The listing omits condition and year of construction, adding uncertainty.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

Large 150 m² terraced house with a small private yard and a few period touches (exposed beams, ceiling medallion). The structure looks intact but the interior is dated and needs clear renovation; at €23k it’s a genuine bargain for someone ready to refurbish into a comfortable home.

Minimum to live in it350500/m²
€53,000 – €75,000

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.

€90,000 – €135,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.

€180,000 – €225,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€30,000 – €53,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Interiors are very dated and will need renovation/modernisation
  • Ceiling cracks and water stains visible — check for damp/roof issues
  • Only one small bathroom
  • Storage rooms cluttered and some rooms need clearing/rework

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 71/100

The cluster lies in the Po Delta plain, with canals, embankments and reclaimed farmland around the branches of the Po. The Po di Goro and Po di Venezia are the defining waterways of this part of the delta. The Po Delta Regional Park extends through the surrounding area, with wetlands, fishing valleys and lagoon environments toward the coast. Ariano and the nearby delta settlements are known for rice cultivation and other reclaimed-land agriculture, and for fishing and aquaculture closer to the lagoons. Adria is the nearest larger town with daily services, rail links and a historic center.
