See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing ('Data di asta', 'Offerta minima'), which is an automatic veto for this catalog. With needs-renovation costs around €700/m², the effective cost would be about €1,238/m² versus a €515/m² baseline, so it is not attractive on numbers either.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable townhouse rather than a shell: it has floors, bathrooms, kitchen spaces, heating and habitable rooms across three levels. But the photos show very modest beauty, little character, and a tired interior that needs a solid refresh before it feels appealing to live in. The low €/m² gives some bargain appeal, yet this is more practical project than dream-home fantasy.
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€27,000 – €49,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

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 55/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Savona, on the Ligurian coast, so daily surroundings are an urban fabric with port infrastructure and the sea nearby. The Ligurian Apennine foothills rise quickly inland behind the coastal strip. The nearest larger town is Savona itself, which has a full range of services, a historic centre and a working port. The Riviera delle Palme coast runs east and west from here, with beaches and seaside settlements along the narrow coastal plain.
