Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €18,509 (€124/m²), the price is far below comparable Umbria townhouses, but this is a judicial auction rather than a standard sale. The listing provides no reliable condition or bathroom information, and explicitly says the images are not of the actual property.
More on the house and the area
The photographed apartment looks bright and newly finished, but the listing confirms these images are not of the property being sold. The actual home appears to be a semi-basement unit with accessory spaces and attic rooms, with no verified bathroom or clear evidence of move-in livability.
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€29,000 – €52,000
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.
- The real asset is described mainly as a semi-basement residential space with storage, laundry, utility room, and attic areas.
- No bathroom is listed in the facts, and the auction/legal condition requires verification before purchase.
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 68/100The area sits in the central Umbrian hills, with low wooded ridges and farmland rather than high mountains. Within about 15 km is Monte Peglia, the main relief of this part of western Umbria, with mixed woodland and viewpoints over the Tiber valley side of the region. The Tevere river runs east of here beyond the immediate hills, and the landscape around the houses is mainly inland hill country cut by small valleys. This is the area of the Monte Peglia e Selva di Meana UNESCO biosphere reserve. Marsciano and Orvieto are the nearest larger centres used for services and rail connections, with Orvieto farther out and outside the immediate radius. San Venanzo is known locally for the volcanic area of the Parco Vulcanologico and for the Venanzo volcanic rock.
