See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction, so it carries major legal, financing, and occupancy risks despite being described as a dwelling. At €45,896 for only 17 m² (€2,700/m²), the price is also far above the local €315/m² reference, while the listing provides no clear detail on the home's actual condition or usability.
More on the house and the area
This is a modest, utilitarian roadside building with limited visual appeal and no proven view or standout historic character. Although listed as habitable and offered with garage, cellar, outbuildings, and land, the tiny stated size and absence of a bathroom make it feel more like a practical project or ancillary property than a dream Italian home.
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€1,000 – €2,000
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.
- Very small stated size at 17 sqm, with no bathroom listed.
- Auction purchase adds legal, inspection, and financing complexity.
- The exterior looks plain and roadside, with no impressive view or distinctive setting shown.
- Actual habitability and the condition of the wider property should be verified through the court documents and inspection.
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.
