This is explicitly an auction listing ("asta immobiliare"), which is a hard veto for this catalog regardless of the low €490/m² ask versus the €573/m² baseline. The text also says the maintenance state is mediocre, so a rough renovation allowance is about €700/m², but the auction status is the decisive negative.
More on the house and the area
This looks like a usable 1980s townhouse with a small private garden, terraces and decent space for the price, but it is not especially beautiful or atmospheric. Interiors appear dated yet basically habitable rather than derelict. The dream factor is mostly value and practicality, not charm or standout setting.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€24,000 – €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 sale: details, occupancy and legal status need checking.
- Condition appears mediocre/dated rather than turnkey.
- Photos are low-quality and incomplete, so interior appeal is uncertain.
- Part of a larger row/condo-style building, so it lacks standalone villa romance.
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.
