The listing is explicitly an 'ASTA IMMOBILIARE', which is a hard veto for this catalog regardless of the low asking price. Although the nominal price is only €172/m² versus a €259/m² baseline, auction risk dominates and makes it unsuitable as a normal buy.
More on the house and the area
The setting has some appeal: a detached rural house with greenery, open hillside outlooks and a usable terrace, plus a lot of space for the price. But the wow is limited by the very plain exterior and mixed condition: the upper floor looks habitable, while large parts of the house feel unfinished, rough or storage-like and would need real upgrading to become a truly attractive home.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Auction sale with usual legal/document checks needed
- Ground floor looks rough and partly utility/storage-like rather than finished living space
- Exterior is plain and some terraces/appendages look makeshift or dated
- Rural access and services should be verified
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.
