What it really costs

Condition not stated in the listing
  • Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Why this price is what it is

This is explicitly a judicial auction ('data dell'asta', 'offerta minima') and one unit is still 'in corso di costruzione', which is a veto for this catalog. The apparent €50/m2 is not meaningful here because the asset is an auction lot with incomplete/hard-to-verify residential usability details and only 1 photo.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

The mountain setting around Carolei looks dramatic on the map, but there are no actual property photos to prove any wow factor from the building itself. The description says one unit is still under construction, so this is not a ready, characterful home. At this price and size it may be a bargain on paper, but as presented it feels speculative rather than dream-home material.

€826,000 – €1,239,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

€1,652,000 – €2,066,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€545,000 – €806,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Only a satellite map is shown, so the building’s beauty is unproven.
  • Part of the property is explicitly described as still under construction.
  • No bathrooms or bedrooms are listed, suggesting incomplete habitability.
  • Auction sale: legal/technical due diligence is 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.

The area around

Location score 52/100

The cluster is in the hills immediately west of Cosenza, on the lower slopes of the Coastal Range (Catena Costiera) that separates the Crati valley from the Tyrrhenian side. The Crati valley and the urban area of Cosenza are the main daily reference point, with city services, shops, hospitals, rail connections and the historic centre of Cosenza close by. Sila National Park is farther east beyond Cosenza and does not sit within the immediate 15 km landscape. This part of inland Calabria is known for olive groves, wooded hills and scattered hill villages rather than for a single landmark landscape or protected site within the immediate area.
