- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Despite the very low asking price of €13,466 (€73/m²), the property is explicitly in an enforcement procedure, so it is a judicial-auction purchase rather than a straightforward home sale. The listing also warns that the images may not show the actual property; renovation is estimated at about €700/m² for the stated condition.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial old village house in a dramatic green mountain setting, with a balcony, rustic character, and nearby countryside. The layout is that of a real three-level home with a kitchen, bathroom, two bedrooms, and usable attic space, but the weathered exterior and visibly compromised roof mean significant renovation is likely. The setting is more compelling than the presentation of the house itself.
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€37,000 – €65,000
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.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- The roof visibly has missing or damaged coverings and likely needs urgent inspection or repair.
- The house is explicitly sold through an enforcement procedure, with images possibly showing only the surrounding area rather than the exact property.
- Interiors are not shown, so actual livability, utilities, and bathroom/kitchen condition remain unverified.
- Access is through a small village road and the property requires renovation.
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 68/100The cluster is in the Belluno pre-Alps, with the Massiccio del Grappa rising just to the south and west and the feltrese hills around it. The Piave valley is close by, and the area sits between the Brenta and Piave river systems. The nearest substantial town is Feltre, which has a walled historic centre, civic buildings and everyday services. This part of the province is known for its foothill landscape of woods, pasture and small farm settlements below the larger Dolomite ranges.
