In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
210 m2 villa at €99k with habitable condition: I estimate €200/m2 renovation (€42k) so effective price €141k → €671/m2, well above the Emilia-Romagna median €365/m2. The property’s 3 apartments, garage and panoramic position help value, but the listing omits year and energy class and heating is currently a wood stove (gas hookup possible).
More on the house and the area
A solid, habitable three‑storey house divided into three apartments with a private garden and outdoor BBQ — ready to live in but with dated finishes. The property’s standout asset is the sweeping valley/river panorama and usable outdoor space, making it an excellent, affordable pick for someone who wants to move in and gradually modernise.
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€14,000 – €23,000
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 and bathrooms are dated and will need cosmetic updating.
- Heating is currently via a wood/coal stove; gas connection is possible but not confirmed.
- Access and parking look limited to a small drive and on-plot spaces — check vehicle access.
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 69/100The cluster is in the Ligurian Apennines, in the upper Val Nure near the Monte Nero and Monte Bue area. The Nure river runs through this part of the valley. This is mountain countryside with beech woods, pasture and scattered hamlets, close to the regional border with Liguria. The nearest ski area is Prato della Cipolla on Monte Bue, roughly half an hour by road from Ferriere. Bobbio is the nearest small historic town of note in the valley, with services and a well-preserved old centre. This part of the Piacentine Apennines is known for summer walking, mushroom gathering and mountain roads rather than for a major protected landscape or a nationally famous monument within the immediate area.
