What it really costs
- Sold at judicial auction
- Registered as agricultural or storage, not as a dwelling
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction and a large part of the 344 sqm is explicitly non-residential agricultural/storage space (magazzino-tavernetta, rimessa macchine agricole, ricovero animali, deposito), so it fails the catalog's livability filter despite the very low asking price. Although the first-floor apartment is described in good condition, the mixed-use rural compound and auction status are veto red flags.
More on the house and the area
This is a very cheap, large rural property with some usable interior space and surrounding greenery, so it is more than a ruin. But the house is visually plain, the exterior feels tired and overgrown, and the practical appeal comes more from size and price than from beauty. The first-floor apartment looks basically habitable, while the lower-level ancillary spaces need clear work.
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€68,000 – €121,000
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.
- Isolated rural location in a peripheral agricultural area
- Exterior spaces and façades look neglected and need substantial cleanup
- Ground-floor annex/magazzino areas are in poor condition
- No bathroom shown in the photo set despite the description mentioning two
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 58/100The area is in the Lucanian Apennines, with wooded hills and medium-height mountains around the settlements. Avigliano sits between the Basento valley and the approaches to Potenza, and the surrounding landscape is inland upland countryside rather than a plain. The nearest larger town is Potenza, which has the main rail and road services, hospitals, shops and administrative functions for the province. Lago di Pietra del Pertusillo and the higher Lucanian mountain parks are farther away and do not fall inside the immediate landscape of the cluster. The area is known above all for mountain villages, forests and inland Basilicata food traditions rather than for a single landmark of national fame.
