In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Large 279 m² villa listed as “habitable” — with an estimated €200/m² for works the effective price is ≈€100,030 (≈€358/m²), above the regional median (~€302/m²) but that median is based on few listings so treat it cautiously. 18 photos plus garage, fireplace and terrace support the habitable claim, making this a solid mid-range renovation/project rather than a bargain.
More on the house and the area
Large, solid mid‑century villa with five bedrooms, two terraces and a garage — interiors appear habitable and largely ready to live in. The property offers good space at a strong discount but needs exterior/roof and heating attention and is in an ordinary, non‑scenic location.
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€18,000 – €31,000
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.
- Only one bathroom for a large 279 m² house
- Exterior plaster, terrace surface and some roof tiles show wear and will need repair
- Visible old boiler/heating equipment — may need servicing or replacement
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.
