This is a judicial auction listing, so the low €240/m² price is not enough to make it a normal purchase opportunity. The listing does not describe the property's condition, and the images are explicitly indicative rather than real photos.
More on the house and the area
The headline offer is attractive for a large 248 sqm townhouse with a reported 152 sqm exclusive courtyard, but the actual home’s appearance cannot be judged from this gallery. The property could be substantial, yet its real condition and livability remain unverified, so it does not currently create a convincing dream-home impression.
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€49,000 – €87,000
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 states that the photos are illustrative and not images of the actual property.
- Condition, layout, bathrooms, utilities, and legal occupancy are not reliably established.
- This is a court-auction property, so purchase and handover involve additional legal and procedural risks.
- The low price per square metre may reflect the auction process and unknown renovation needs.
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 52/100The cluster lies on the lower slopes west of Cosenza, in the valley system that opens toward the Crati plain, with the Coastal Range rising a short distance to the west. The Savuto valley and the first Tyrrhenian-facing mountains are within the local hinterland, and the Sila massif is visible farther east beyond Cosenza but outside the immediate landscape. Cosenza is the nearest town of size, with a full set of services, a historic centre, and the urban area shared with Rende. The area is known mainly as the inland edge between the Cosenza urban basin and the Tyrrhenian side of northern Calabria, with mixed hillside settlement and access routes across the province.
