The €28,280 asking price is very low at €92/m², and the house is described as in good condition after a 2005 renovation. However, this is a judicial auction, so it is not a normal straightforward purchase and carries auction-specific legal and procedural risk.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large, independent three-bedroom house with furnished living spaces, tiled bathrooms, terraces, a garage, and a cellar/tavernetta—clearly a real usable home rather than a shell. The interiors are dated and the exterior is ordinary, with visible deterioration in parts of the ground floor, but the exceptionally low auction price gives it strong practical appeal rather than visual wow.
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€20,000 – €34,000
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 requires careful checks on title, occupancy, debts, and transfer costs.
- Interiors appear usable and furnished but dated, with visible wall cracking/damp-related deterioration on the ground floor.
- No bathroom count is confirmed in the facts despite the description mentioning bathrooms; verify the full layout and compliance.
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 55/100The cluster sits on the Sibari plain, with the Pollino massif visible inland and the lower foothills beginning to the east. The Crati river system crosses this part of northern Calabria before reaching the Ionian coast. Pollino National Park lies inland, with the first mountain roads and trailheads reached by driving up toward Castrovillari and the Pollino villages. The nearest town of size is Castrovillari, which has the main hospital, secondary schools, larger shops and the A2 motorway access for this part of the province. Sibari and the plain are known for citrus, olive groves and archaeology linked to the ancient Greek colony.
