What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Effective price ≈ €1,425/m² (€100,000 + est. €96,600 renovation = €196,600 / 138 m²) vs regional median €406/m² (≈3.5× higher), so the total cost is well above market; listing also says it "needs renovation" while condition is marked habitable and there is only one photo and missing bath data.
More on the house and the area
A practical two-level townhouse with terrace, private courtyard and three independent entrances (easy to split into two units) but the listing lacks photos and the property requires updating — more a sensible investment/project than a romantic, move‑in dream home.
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€27,000 – €48,000
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.
- No actual photos provided in the gallery (placeholder only).
- Built in 1970 and explicitly needs renovation — not a turnkey, character-filled home.
- Listing data shows inconsistent bathroom info (description mentions bathrooms but numeric field is 0).
- No proven views, historic features or attractive exterior visible in the photos.
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.

Arquà Petrarca, within the Euganean Hills, is listed among I Borghi più belli d’Italia. The area is known for thermal spa activity linked to the Euganean basin, olive oil and wine from the Colli Euganei.
