What it really costs

Livable, but something basic is worn out

See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly a judicial auction ("ASTA IMMOBILIARE", "Esecuzione"), which is a veto red flag for this catalog. Although the ask is only €234/m² versus a €387/m² baseline, auction status overrides pricing attractiveness.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable country house rather than a shell: solid stone exterior, finished rooms, kitchen, stairs and modern bathrooms are all visible. The brick arches and exposed stone give it some character, and the garden opens to pleasant rolling-hill scenery. It feels more practical than dreamy, but at this price for 209 sqm it has genuine live-in appeal.
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€14,000 – €23,000
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: details and occupancy/legal status need checking.
- Exterior and garden feel functional rather than polished.
- Interiors are habitable but somewhat dated/cluttered in presentation.
- No bathroom count is confirmed in the listing facts.
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 63/100The area sits on the first hills where the Po plain rises toward the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines. The Sillaro valley is the main local landform. Vena del Gesso Romagnola Regional Park lies partly within this radius to the southeast, with gypsum outcrops and badland terrain around the Borgo Tossignano side. Imola is the nearest larger town, with a full range of services and a historic centre. Castel San Pietro Terme is known for its thermal baths, and the surrounding countryside is mixed farmland with vineyards and orchards.
