Livable, but something basic is worn out

See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction ('asta immobiliare') and the description says the house and garage were dangerous and effectively inaccessible, which is a veto-level risk. At €37,463 for 76 sqm plus a severe restoration burden (~€1,100/sqm), the headline price is irrelevant for a livable-home buyer.
More on the house and the area
The surrounding countryside around Olevano Romano is pleasant, and the price per square meter looks strikingly cheap. But the listing itself says the house and garage were unsafe and effectively impossible to access, so this reads as a hazardous project rather than a usable home. With no real property photos, there is no proven architectural beauty or livable wow here.
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€30,000 – €44,000
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 property with details to verify in court documents
- Building and garage are described as dangerous and inaccessible
- Access is via a narrow rural track in a non-urbanized area
- No interior/exterior house photos proving views, charm, or livable condition
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.
