Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction, so it carries legal, bidding and due-diligence risks that override the attractive €337/m² asking level. The description says the villa has two bathrooms, while the listing data records none, adding a material inconsistency.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial 160 m², three-bedroom villa with two balconies, private garden/vegetable land, garage, cellar space, autonomous heating and a 10 kWp photovoltaic system. The description suggests a usable but dated home in discreet condition rather than a beautifully finished dream house, and there are no actual interior or exterior property photos to prove stronger visual appeal.
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€11,000 – €18,000
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.
- The gallery shows presentation slides rather than the actual house, so visual appeal and current condition cannot be verified.
- Access is indirect through third-party property.
- The property is in a geomorphological-risk area with hydrogeological and historic-planning constraints.
- Auction purchase requires careful review of the survey, title, utilities and bathroom details.
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.
