Listing price €80,000 for 180 m² (€444/m²) looks superficially close to the local median (€457/m²), but assuming a modest modernization (€200/m²) yields an effective cost of €116,000 (≈€644/m²), about 41% above the regional median. The property is central with 16 photos and a terrace, but the listing does not state the building condition or year so the renovation assumption is necessary.
More on the house and the area
A roomy independent palazzetto in the town centre with small balconies and a wood-beamed terrace — real potential and liveable now. Interiors are solid but dated and need cosmetic refurbishment and some moisture repairs to make it a comfortable long-term home.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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 and tiles — full cosmetic update recommended (kitchen, bathroom, floors).
- Signs of damp/mould on the enclosed terrace area — check waterproofing/ventilation.
- Only one bathroom for 180 m² and narrow street access; ground-floor space looks like a former shop (may need conversion).
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.
