Why this price is what it is

Asking €63,000 for 66 m² is €955/m² vs a regional median of €467/m²; estimated renovation €700/m² (total renovation ≈ €46,200) brings the effective price to about €1,655/m² (≈€109,200 total). Independent house with garden and three garages are positives, but the high effective €/m² makes this an overpriced pick.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

A compact independent townhouse with a private garden, balcony and three garages — great practical value for the price. Interiors are perfectly liveable but dated and need renovation (ceiling stains, old tiles and fixtures), so it’s a charming low-cost home with clear upside after updating.

Minimum to live in it€350–500/m²
€23,000 – €33,000

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.

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

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

€79,000 – €99,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€13,000 – €23,000

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.

Connections and paperworkabout €10,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Needs renovation and cosmetic updating (stained ceilings, dated finishes).
  • Small kitchen and bathroom, some visible damp/staining on ceilings.
  • Rural/wooded view only — no dramatic panorama or sea view.

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 61/100

The area is in the first Apennine hills between the Tramazzo valley and the ridge country on the border with Tuscany. The Tramazzo river runs through Modigliana and the landscape within reach is wooded hills, ravines, cultivated slopes and small ridge villages. The Foreste Casentinesi, Monte Falterona e Campigna National Park lies nearby to the southwest, though its main forest and high-ridge scenery are outside the immediate 15 km radius. The nearest larger town is Faenza, which provides rail links, hospitals and the main services for this part of the Romagna hills. Brisighella, within the same hill belt, is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia and is known for its gypsum ridge landscape and medieval hilltop core. This part of inland Romagna is known for vineyards, olive groves in the warmer exposures, chestnut woods higher up, and for the transition from the Po plain to the Tuscan-Romagnol Apennines.
