This is a judicial auction ('in asta'), which is an automatic veto. The listing also contradicts the the listing: it is marked 'Renovated' but the description says large parts are unfinished ('allo stato grezzo'), systems need upgrading, and the property includes substantial agricultural land in a protected agricultural/pre-park area.
More on the house and the area
The wooded mountain setting and large amount of land give this property real lifestyle appeal, and the long balcony has a pleasant green outlook. But the wow is held back by the house itself: it is a big, mostly usable rural villa with some finished rooms, yet substantial sections are unfinished and overall it needs serious upgrading before it feels like a dream home.
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, €900/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€100,000 – €177,000
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.
- Large parts are only partially finished/al grezzo.
- No functioning heating system; installations need upgrading.
- Some interiors are dark, basic and need renovation.
- Auction sale in a protected landscape area may add practical constraints.
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.
