Asking price is €35k (≈€105/m²) but the property is described as completely to be renovated — estimated €700/m² → renovation ≈€233k, so effective price ≈€805/m², nearly double the local median of €409/m². The large 333 m², ~200 m² garden and garage are positives, and there are 24 photos, but the renovation cost dominates value.
More on the house and the area
Generous, characterful terraced house with original beamed ceilings, terracotta floors and decorative ceiling details that give it real historic charm. The building is roofed and partly liveable but requires a comprehensive renovation (damp/peeling plaster, services upgrade) to become a comfortable long-term home.
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.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€66,000 – €117,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Needs substantial renovation — plaster/damp and cosmetic work visible throughout
- Only one bathroom shown, plumbing and electrical likely need updating
- Street-facing main facade (limited privacy, possible noise)
- Large property so renovation will be a significant project/cost
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 58/100This is the Po plain on the River Po, with levees, fields, irrigation channels and scattered riverside settlements. Sabbioneta lies nearby and is a UNESCO World Heritage site as a planned Renaissance town with ducal walls, a theatre and a regular street grid. Casalmaggiore itself is the nearest town of size, with services, shops and a working historic centre on the Po. The area is known for agriculture in the lower Po valley and for the network of small historic centres between the Lombard and Mantuan plain.
