What it really costs

In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
€90,000 for 94 m² plus an estimated €200/m² of works gives an effective cost of about €1,157/m², well above the Lombardy baseline of ≈€407/m²; the house is habitable with many photos and a large garden, but the unit price is high for the region.
More on the house and the area
A single‑storey, immediately habitable villa with a private perimeter garden and covered porch — a peaceful, usable home in the countryside. Interiors are serviceable but dated, so it’s best seen as a comfortable move‑in with cosmetic refresh rather than a turnkey designer property.
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€6,000 – €11,000
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.
- Dated interior finishes and bright paintwork — cosmetic updating recommended
- Garden is overgrown and will need regular maintenance/clearing
- Only one bathroom and two bedrooms — modest layout for a family
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.
