This is a judicial auction with a €90,525 minimum bid, so it is unsuitable for buyers seeking a straightforward purchase. The 226 m² property also needs substantial renovation, non-compliant systems, and demolition of unauthorized structures.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial but visually ordinary two-level house with a leafy yard and extensive accessory spaces, rather than a picturesque Italian dream home. The main structure appears roofed and usable, but the interiors are dated, cluttered, and in need of significant renovation; the illegal outbuildings and non-compliant systems reduce its 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€45,000 – €79,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

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 sits on the Mincio river in the flat plain between Mantova and the morainic hills south of Lake Garda. Parco del Mincio extends through this stretch of river landscape, with embanked watercourses, fields and wetland corridors. The nearest larger town is Mantova, which has a substantial historic centre and UNESCO status for Mantova and Sabbioneta. This part of the province is known for irrigated farmland and rice-growing plain landscapes linked to the Mincio and Po basin.
