Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
List price €85,000 for 89 m²; assuming minor works (~€200/m²) gives an effective ≈€1,155/m² versus the local median €474/m², so this is significantly above typical prices. The listing does not state the property condition explicitly, so a modest renovation allowance was applied.
More on the house and the area
A neatly presented, move-in-ready two-level country apartment with attractive terracotta floors, a working fireplace and warm parquet upstairs — plenty of rustic character and practical bathrooms/kitchen. It feels like a comfortable, affordable rural home, but it sits in a courtyard of farm buildings with little private outdoor space and no spectacular views.
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€6,000 – €10,000
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 clear private garden or large plot shown — appears in a shared courtyard/farm complex
- No notable views or dramatic setting visible in photos
- Small footprint (89 m²) with one bedroom — limited for larger families
- Cosmetic updating/styling may be desired (decor, some fixtures)
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 central Po plain between the Adda and Oglio river systems, with flat agricultural land, canals and scattered farmsteads. The Adda river corridor is the main nearby natural feature, with the Parco Regionale Adda Sud covering stretches of river landscape, woodland and cultivated plain in this part of the province. Crema is the nearest town of size, with a historic centre and services, and Cremona is the larger provincial city for daily and weekly needs. The area is known for intensive farming and for the irrigated plain of Lombardy.
