See what needs doing and what each job costs
The listing explicitly promotes a pre-auction purchase and a telematic judicial auction, so it fails the catalog's eligibility rules regardless of its €668/m² asking price. The facts also report zero bathrooms while the description says the apartment has a bathroom.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, furnished and apparently usable apartment with balconies, a garage, and a cellar, rather than a renovation shell. However, the 1980s condominium exterior and dated interiors offer little visual charm, character, or special setting, so it is practical rather than dream-home material.
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€7,000 – €11,000
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.
- Older, dated interiors and exterior common areas would likely need refreshing.
- Auction/pre-auction purchase involves legal, procedural, and occupancy due diligence.
- The listing data is inconsistent about the bathroom count, so verify the actual layout and documentation.
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 55/100Monte Campo dei Fiori and its summit (about 1,226 m) lie immediately to the south of the town; the Parco Regionale Campo dei Fiori covers part of those hills. Lago di Varese is at the town’s northern edge and within the local area. Lago di Monate and Lago di Comabbio lie within roughly 10–15 km to the northwest and west, and the shore of Lake Maggiore is also within about 15 km. The Sacro Monte di Varese (one of the Sacri Monti of Piedmont and Lombardy) is on a hillside above the city and is part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. The immediate landscape is Pre‑Alpine: hills rising to forested ridges, with agricultural land and built-up areas intermingled within the 15 km radius. The town provides railway and road connections toward Milan; the nearest international airport used for routine travel is Malpensa (around 20–25 km). The area is commonly associated with its lakes, villa culture and the Sacri Monti pilgrimage sites.
