See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction ('in asta', minimum bid €17,567), which is a veto red flag and makes it unsuitable for a normal buyer-focused deal despite the very low asking figure. The facts say 'Renovated' but the description clearly says 'da ristrutturare', so I used about €700/m² renovation cost and treated the listing data as contradictory.
More on the house and the area
There is some rustic appeal here: exposed brick, heavy timber beams, a large old fireplace and a detached outbuilding wrapped in greenery. But this is not a ready dream home — it looks like a tired village house with usable structure and some bathrooms in place, yet requiring substantial cleanup and renovation to become truly livable. The ultra-low price and decent amount of space help the value story more than the wow factor.
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€37,000 – €65,000
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.
- Needs significant renovation before comfortable full-time use
- Some interiors look stripped or incomplete, especially kitchen areas
- Overgrown outbuilding/courtyard suggests deferred maintenance
- Auction listing photos may be partly indicative rather than fully reliable
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 35/100This is flat agricultural land in the western Lomellina, between the Po and the lower course of the Agogna, with a landscape of fields, irrigation channels, farmsteads and small villages. The nearest town of size is Mortara, which has rail connections and the normal services of a small provincial centre. Vigevano is the main historic town in the wider area, with Piazza Ducale and the Sforza Castle, but it lies beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for rice cultivation, part of the broader paddy plain of Lomellina.
