What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Asking €99,000 for 110 m2 (900 €/m2). I estimate systems-upgrade work at ~€200/m2 → €22,000 renovation, giving an effective price ≈ €121,000 (≈1,100 €/m2) versus the regional baseline of €422/m2, so this is well above typical local levels; the property is 12 km from the sea and the listing notes it needs impianti upgrades.
More on the house and the area
A solid, livable historic townhouse with attractive exposed roof timbers and a generous private courtyard/garage space. The house is usable now (decent bedroom and bathroom shown) but needs system upgrades and cosmetic renovation to become a comfortable, modern home.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Habitable but needs updating of electrical/heating/plumbing systems.
- Upper attic area is rustic and dusty — requires cleaning and possible roof-timber check/finishing.
- Large courtyard is practical for parking but is paved concrete rather than a landscaped garden; no sea view shown.
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.
