Veto: the description explicitly says 'ASTA IMMOBILIARE', the former dwelling is 'collabente', and there is a 'struttura agricolo-produttiva fatiscente' on agricultural land, so this is not a normal habitable villa despite the facts label. At €47,813 for 246 sqm (€194/sqm) it looks cheap, but the auction/ruin/agricultural status overrides baseline comparison.
More on the house and the area
The mountain backdrop and open rural land give it some setting appeal, and the price per sqm is strikingly low. But the photos and description show a collapsing former house and derelict farm structure, with broken openings and major roof failure. This is not a livable home today, but a heavy reconstruction project with only modest visual charm.
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€97,000 – €144,000
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.
- Main dwelling is explicitly collabente/fatiscente and appears partly roof-damaged.
- No usable interior, bathroom or kitchen is shown; this is a full restoration project.
- Auction sale: documentation and legal status need careful checking.
- Outbuildings/yard look cluttered and agricultural rather than ready for residential use.
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.
