Veto: the description explicitly says 'ASTA IMMOBILIARE', so this is a judicial auction and scores as a trap regardless of apparent price. The facts are also inconsistent (7,734 sqm and 12 €/m2 vs a 110 mq apartment in the text, plus 0 bathrooms in the listing), so the listing data is unreliable.
More on the house and the area
This looks like a functional ground-floor home rather than a dream Italian property. The interiors seem habitable with floors, windows and a basic kitchen/bath setup, but the architecture and setting are stark and unromantic. The low price for the large overall lot adds value, yet the wow factor for actually living here is weak.
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€511,000 – €863,000
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: listing details and final outcome need legal/document checks.
- Photos suggest a very plain 1980s house with little character or visual appeal.
- Surroundings appear mixed/industrial rather than scenic or residential-charming.
- Interiors look basically usable but likely need updating and verification of bathroom/utility completeness.
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 32/100This is in the built-up area of Foggia on the Tavoliere delle Puglie, a broad agricultural plain. The nearest large natural feature is the Gargano promontory to the northeast, but it lies outside the immediate 15 km landscape. Foggia is the main service city of the area, with a large rail station, hospital, university facilities and the usual commercial districts of a provincial capital. The area is known for cereal farming on the Tavoliere.
