This 128 m² townhouse is explicitly being sold through a judicial enforcement procedure, which makes it unsuitable for this catalog. Although the asking price is €42,000 (€328/m²), the listing does not state the condition or renovation requirements clearly.
More on the house and the area
A tidy, independent two-storey house with a sound-looking tiled roof, established hedges, mature trees, a private court, and useful garage/outbuildings. It appears substantially more like a real home than a ruin, but the plain exterior offers little architectural character or special setting, and the lack of interior evidence keeps the score firmly out of the dream-home range.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€25,000 – €45,000
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 interior photos, so the kitchen, bathroom, utilities, and actual livability cannot be verified.
- The house sits directly beside a two-lane road, which may mean traffic noise and limited privacy.
- It is being sold through an execution/auction procedure; legal and occupancy checks are essential.
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.
