Why this price is what it is

Asking €365,000; with a modest repair allowance (€200/m²) effective price ≈ €2,206/m², more than 3× the regional baseline of €695/m², so expensive for this catalog. Description notes it is ~20 years old and in excellent condition, but energy class and exact build year are not provided.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

Well-maintained, move‑in ready townhouse with a bright open-plan living/kitchen, neat bedrooms and a private paved garden/covered terrace for outdoor dining. The condition is solid and comfortable, but the property is a modern suburban home rather than a picture‑perfect historic Italian villa or a dramatic countryside setting.

Updating, not renovation
€36,000 – €52,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Suburban setting with no sea/mountain/valley views
  • Modern townhouse — not historic or highly photogenic outside
  • Price shown (€365k) is well above typical ‘bargain’ range in this catalog

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 55/100

Modena sits on the Po plain between the Secchia (to the west) and the Panaro (to the east); terrain within about 15 km is flat agricultural land and urban/industrial development. The Apennino Tosco‑Emiliano ridge lies to the south; the first significant hills are beyond roughly 15–20 km. The historic centre of Modena (the Cathedral, Torre Ghirlandina and Piazza Grande) is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city is a regional transport hub on the A1 motorway and the Milan–Bologna rail corridor, with regional rail and road connections across Emilia. The municipality contains parks such as the Parco Ducale and other municipal green spaces. The area and province are known for traditional Aceto Balsamico di Modena, Parmigiano‑Reggiano production and Lambrusco wine; the local motor industry is also important, with Ferrari in nearby Maranello and Maserati and other automotive facilities in the province. Cultural and educational institutions in the city include the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia and the Teatro Comunale.
