Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Protected monumental house in Brescia (475 m2) at €650,000: using an estimated renovation cost of €700/m2 gives an effective price ≈ €2,067/m2 versus the local median €430/m2, so this is priced well above market. Listing does not state the building condition and Soprintendenza protection may restrict works and raise restoration costs despite 31 photos.
More on the house and the area
A striking, historic casa‑studio with original vaulted rooms, high‑quality frescoes and an ornate mosaic floor plus a photogenic tower and private garden — all intact and clearly a real, usable home. Because it’s a protected monument it will need careful conservation and permits for changes, but this is a dream residence rather than a ruin.
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€94,000 – €167,000
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.
- Property is officially protected by the Soprintendenza (heritage restrictions and approvals required)
- Some areas show wear and will need sensitive conservation/restoration (not a turnkey modern renovation)
- Large garden and building mean ongoing maintenance costs
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.
