See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial online auction, which makes it unsuitable for the catalog regardless of its apparent €58/m² price. The listing also gives conflicting sizes—322 m² in the data versus 429 m² in the description—and does not state a standard sale price or closing costs.
More on the house and the area
A substantial traditional Lombard house with a vivid historic facade, dark shutters, terracotta floors, original wood furniture, and a fireplace. The home appears structurally usable and equipped with kitchens and bathrooms, but the interiors are dated and plainly furnished rather than dream-like, with no visible garden or special view.
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€21,000 – €36,000
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.
- Auction purchase with potentially complex procedures and unknown buyer obligations.
- Interiors are habitable but very dated, cluttered, and likely need cosmetic modernization.
- No garden, terrace, or notable view is evident; the house fronts directly onto a road.
- Listing facts and description appear inconsistent on the bathroom count, so details should be verified.
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 38/100This is flat rice-growing country on the Lomellina plain between the Sesia and Po river systems, with a landscape of fields, irrigation canals, farmsteads and small villages. Mortara is the nearest larger town in the area, with rail links and everyday services. Vigevano, with a substantial historic centre centred on Piazza Ducale and the Sforza Castle complex, is the nearest town of real size within easy reach but outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for rice cultivation and water-managed agriculture.
