Assuming a modest habitable renovation (~€200/m² → €40k), effective price is €160,000 or €800/m² vs regional baseline €409/m², well above market. Listing has 31 photos and central location with garage/pool tags, but the condition is not stated so upgrade needs are unclear.
More on the house and the area
A characterful, inhabitable town house with a vaulted living room, stone-arched entrance and a private paved courtyard plus very large garage/workshop. The setting offers pleasant countryside and mountain views; the property is lived-in but cosmetically dated so it’s an attractive, ready-to-live option with minor refreshes rather than a full restoration.
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€13,000 – €22,000
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.
- Corner position on a main road — some traffic and limited street privacy
- Interiors are dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating (small kitchen, older finishes)
- Rear outdoor space is a small paved courtyard rather than a garden
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 61/100The area sits on the morainic plain south of Lake Garda, with low cultivated hills and open agricultural land. Lake Garda is within about 15 km, with the southern shore around Desenzano del Garda and Padenghe sul Garda forming the main nearby water landscape. The Chiese river passes nearby to the west. Desenzano del Garda is the nearest larger town, with a lakefront, rail station, motorway access and full services. Sirmione, on the south shore of Lake Garda, is also close enough to matter for daily life and is known for its historic peninsula and thermal baths. This part of the Brescian-Garda area is known for vineyards, olive cultivation near the lake, and mixed farming on the plain.
