This is explicitly an auction listing ("ASTA IMMOBILIARE"), which is a veto red flag for this catalog. The asking level is low at €207/m² versus a €259/m² baseline, but auction risk and incomplete usability data (0 baths, mixed residential + magazzino components) dominate.
More on the house and the area
There is some appeal in the rolling Marche countryside and the low price for a large property, but the setting feels more functional than dreamy. The interiors shown are basic and partly warehouse-like, with only modest finished living space visible. This looks usable in parts, but not a beautiful ready-to-live Italian dream home as presented.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€16,000 – €27,000
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.
- Mixed-use feel: much of the space shown looks like storage/magazzino rather than finished living area.
- No bathroom is shown and the facts list 0 baths, so habitability details are unclear.
- Busy roadside setting reduces charm and privacy.
- Auction property: documentation, condono, and layout/legal status need careful checking.
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.
