Estimated renovation €200/m² → €58k, so effective price ≈€283k or ≈€976/m², well above the regional median €442/m²; listing omits condition, construction year and energy class, so price looks high for the market.
More on the house and the area
A solid, intact two‑storey villa with a generous, tree‑filled garden, covered glazed veranda and balconies — clearly liveable as a family home. The exterior and grounds are very attractive, but the interior looks dated and will need updating to reach its full potential.
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€19,000 – €32,000
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 1960s/80s finishes — will need modernization inside.
- Only two bathrooms for a very large 9-bed layout (plumbing upgrade likely).
- Property sits close to the street (some traffic/noise possible) and the garden needs tidy/maintenance.
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 38/100This is the lower Romagna plain between Lugo, Faenza and Ravenna, with flat agricultural land, canals and drainage works shaped by the old wetlands of the Po plain. The Senio River passes just west of Lugo and the Santerno is nearby toward the Bologna side of the plain. Ravenna is the nearest city of size, with major services and UNESCO early Christian monuments, but those monuments are outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for intensive farming and fruit growing in the Romagna plain.
