In the listingHabitable- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly a judicial auction property (“all’asta”), so it is not suitable for a normal direct purchase despite the stated €91,875 price and habitable condition. The listing also says the images are only indicative, so the actual condition and layout must be verified through the court documents.
More on the house and the area
This appears to be a genuinely habitable 78 sqm historic-center home with balconies, a small courtyard, and adjacent 130 sqm plot, but its beauty is not convincingly demonstrated. The polished interiors shown cannot be credited because the listing says they are not real property photos, while the exterior offers no notable view or architectural character.
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€5,000 – €9,000
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.
- The listing explicitly says the photos are indicative and not of the actual property.
- Auction purchase with potentially significant legal, access, and condition due diligence required.
- The home has steep internal stairs and energy class G; bathroom count is inconsistent between the facts and description.
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 74/100The cluster sits in the low hills between Lake Orta and Lake Maggiore. Lake Orta is within about 10 km, with the lakeside towns of Orta San Giulio and Pettenasco nearby. The southern side of Lake Maggiore around Arona is within about 15 km. The area is part of the Colline Novaresi, with mixed woodland, small vineyards and settled hills rather than high mountains; the main Alpine backdrop is farther north beyond the 15 km radius. Arona is the nearest town of size, with rail links, ferry services on Lake Maggiore and the Borromean area beyond. Orta San Giulio is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia. The area is known for its lake landscapes and for the wine hills of the Novara side.
