See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction ('in asta') and the building is a collapsed ruin: F/2 collabente with floors and roof almost completely caved in, so it triggers a veto. At €56,240 for 70 sqm plus an extreme rebuild cost (~€1,400/sqm), the effective cost is far above the €509/sqm baseline anyway.
More on the house and the area
This has some romantic appeal on paper as an old rural Tuscan structure with a small private rear garden. But it is a genuine collapsed shell, not a usable house: the roof and floor structure are largely gone and no utilities or interior layout survive. At this price, the dream is a rebuild project rather than living in it.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,400/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€28,000 – €41,000
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.
- It is explicitly a rudere/collabente, not a livable home.
- Roof and intermediate floor are almost completely collapsed.
- No systems, bathroom, kitchen, or identifiable interior rooms remain.
- Map/images do not prove views or the actual exterior 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.
The area around
