What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Estimated renovation ~€700/m² → renovation ≈€79,800 and effective price ≈€129,800 (≈€1,140/m²). That is about 2.5× the local median €462/m², so this two‑storey fixer in Cesena looks overpriced for a full renovation; listing has only 1 photo and no energy/building year data.
More on the house and the area
Intact, attached two-storey house with a usable ~200 m² garden in a residential area near services — a solid, affordable renovation project. Not photogenic or historic, but offers real living potential at a low price.
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€22,000 – €40,000
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.

- Property needs renovation — likely full interior update required
- Only exterior photo provided so interior condition is unclear
- No energy class / technical details listed
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 50/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Cesena, so the immediate setting is urban fabric in the Romagna plain. The Savio river runs through the city. The first Apennine hills rise to the south within a short drive, but the surrounding 15 km is mostly plain and low hills shaped by agriculture, roads and suburban development. Cesena is a substantial town with full services and the Malatestiana Library, which is on the UNESCO Memory of the World register. The area is known for fruit growing and food processing in the Romagna plain.
