See what needs doing and what each job costs
This property is being sold through a judicial auction, which makes it a veto despite the attractive €1,194/m² price and location 500 m from the sea. The listing description mentions a bathroom, while the structured data reports none, so the property details also need verification.
More on the house and the area
This is a practical seaside townhouse rather than a beautiful Italian dream home, with private paved courtyards, a veranda and the beach roughly 500 m away. It appears usable and furnished, but the cramped interiors, heavy clutter and visible moisture damage mean it needs meaningful refreshing before it feels inviting.
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€3,000 – €5,000
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.
- Auction purchase requires careful checks on title, occupancy and costs.
- Visible damp/mold staining appears on kitchen and bathroom ceilings, suggesting renovation or remediation.
- Only about 45 sqm indoors; the home is heavily cluttered and the layout appears compact.
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 81/100The cluster lies in the Po Delta, with flat reclaimed land, canals and brackish lagoons around the Valli di Comacchio. The Po Delta Regional Park is within the area. The Adriatic coast is immediately nearby, with long sandy beach and pinewood stretches around the lidos of Comacchio. Comacchio itself is the nearest town of size, with a canal-based historic centre and the Trepponti bridge. The area is known for lagoon fishing and eel.
