Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This €41,100 property is explicitly sold through a public judicial auction, so it is not suitable for this catalog regardless of its €316/m² asking price versus €371/m² for comparable homes. The listing also gives conflicting sizes (130 m² versus 125 m²) and does not state the condition or renovation needs.
More on the house and the area
A substantial two-level house with a large private garden, mature trees, parking, and a pleasant rural setting near Campobasso. The home is clearly furnished and usable rather than a shell, but the dated interiors, worn exterior, and utilitarian architecture limit the dream-home appeal.
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€26,000 – €46,000
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.
- Public auction sale, requiring careful legal and procedural due diligence.
- Interiors are dated and cluttered, with likely cosmetic modernization needed.
- The property appears livable, but utilities, heating efficiency, and structural condition are not confirmed.
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 cluster is in the Molise Apennine setting, with rounded mountain relief and hill country around Campobasso. The Biferno valley lies nearby, and the Matese massif is to the south-west, but the stronger mountain scenery is outside the immediate 15 km radius. Campobasso is the nearest town of size and has the regional administrative functions, a substantial historic centre, and Castello Monforte above the town. This part of Molise is known for inland hill and mountain landscapes rather than for a single standout landmark within the immediate surroundings.
