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. It also needs major restoration: at about €1,100/m² renovation, the effective cost is roughly €355k total (~€1,310/m²) versus a €406/m² baseline.
More on the house and the area
There is some modest appeal in the tall 1930s facade, shutters and little balcony, and the price per square metre is strikingly low. But the photos show a very tired, dark house with cellar-like spaces, unfinished feel and no convincing ready-to-live interior. This is a heavy renovation project rather than a dream home as it stands.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€107,000 – €159,000
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.

- Major renovation needed; the listing itself says the maintenance state is very poor
- Electrical and plumbing systems are non-compliant
- Bathroom count is effectively unusable/unclear from the photos and facts
- Auction sale adds legal/process complexity
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 48/100The area sits in the Brianza-Comasco belt of settled low hills and plain between Como and Saronno. The Lura river valley runs through this part of the province, with the Parco Locale di Interesse Sovracomunale della Valle del Lura around Cadorago and nearby woodland such as the Pineta di Appiano Gentile e Tradate Regional Park within the local area. Como is the nearest city of size, with the walled historic centre, lakefront services and rail connections. Lake Como is farther north and outside the immediate 15 km landscape. This part of the province is known more for residential and commuter settlements, woods and mixed farmland than for a singular landmark landscape.
