Asking €79,000 for 80 m² but listed as 'needs renovation' — estimated renovation €700/m² (~€56,000) brings the effective price to ~€135,000 (~€1,688/m²), far above the local median €409/m²; central location and a garage add value but don’t justify that gap. The listing omits energy class and detailed room/bath information.
More on the house and the area
The apartment has very attractive, tall volumes with a timber roof and an arched window that could make a dramatic living space. However the interior is a rough, unfinished shell and will need a complete renovation (services, floors, bathrooms) despite useful extras like a garage and balcony in a central town location.
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€16,000 – €28,000
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.

- Interior is an unfinished shell: no finished floors, bathrooms or kitchen — full fit‑out required

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 53/100The area sits in the Brianza hill belt between Como and the Milan plain, with built-up towns, wooded patches and cultivated land. Lake Como is nearby, with the southern branches around Como and Lecco roughly within 15 km. The nearest larger town is Como, which has the walled historic centre, the cathedral, rail links and services. This part of Brianza is known for furniture making and small-industry districts rather than for a single protected landscape or isolated rural setting.
