As listed the price is €158,000 (≈€1,756/m²) while the regional median in our stock is €593/m²; assuming minor works (~€200/m²) gives an effective ≈€1,955/m², well above local norms. The house looks complete with many photos, but the price is high for the area, so it scores as overpriced.
More on the house and the area
A solid, lived‑in semi‑detached house with a bright, photogenic exterior, private outdoor space, garage and taverna—ready to live in while you modernise. Interiors are spacious but dated, so this is a comfortable home that benefits from cosmetic updating rather than a full renovation.
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 – €10,000
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.
- Interiors are dated and will need cosmetic updating (kitchen, finishes).
- Only one bathroom for a 3‑bed layout.
- Photos don’t show the “panoramic” view mentioned in the description.
- Energy performance certificate (APE) not provided / pending.
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.
