What it really costs
- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction ('in asta'), which is an automatic veto under the rules. Even aside from that, at 69 €/m2 plus roughly 700 €/m2 renovation for missing heating and only sufficient condition, the low sticker price does not offset auction risk for foreign buyers.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house rather than a ruin: it has finished rooms, windows, floors and a modest lived-in interior, plus garage, cellar and small outdoor space. But visually it is plain, with no evident view, strong historic charm or standout exterior, and the absent heating makes it less ready for comfortable full-time living. The very low price is the main wow element here, not the beauty.
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€36,000 – €64,000
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.
- No working heating system is installed.
- Interiors look basic and somewhat dated rather than characterful.
- Auction sale: photos and condition should be verified against the perizia.
- Bathrooms/details are only partly shown, so full livability needs checking.
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 58/100This is in the Oltrepò Pavese, in the first hills south of the Po plain, with a landscape of vine-covered ridges, small woods and scattered hamlets. The Staffora valley lies nearby, and the first Ligurian Apennine ridges rise farther south. The nearest town of size is Voghera, which provides the main rail station, hospitals and full services. The area is known for vineyards and wine production, especially Pinot Nero and other Oltrepò Pavese wines.
