Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Assuming modest finishing works at €200/m² (~€44,200), effective price is €229,200 or ≈€1,038/m²—well above the Emilia‑Romagna baseline of €443/m². Large 221 m² independent house in good condition with 26 photos and garden, but the asking price is substantially higher than regional norms.
More on the house and the area
A solid, roomy two‑storey house with high ceilings, exposed beams and a handsome staircase — livable now but cosmetically dated. The big private garden, well and separate garage/outbuildings make it a practical country-home package, though exterior/outbuilding repairs and interior updating will be needed.
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€15,000 – €25,000
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.
- Dated finishes — kitchen/bathrooms and some floors will need updating
- Outbuildings/garage and parts of the exterior need maintenance
- Garden is generous but overgrown and will require clearing and care
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 36/100This is the flat lower Romagna plain between the Santerno and Senio river areas, with orchards, arable land, drainage canals and scattered farm buildings. Lugo is the nearest larger town and has a substantial historic centre, services and rail links. Ravenna is the main city in the wider area, with major monuments and UNESCO sites, but it is outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for intensive agriculture, especially fruit growing in the Romagna plain.
