What it really costs

See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly an asta immobiliare (judicial auction), which is a veto regardless of the attractive €298/m² price versus the €367/m² Emilia-Romagna baseline. The property is described as habitable, so estimated renovation is €200/m², but auction-specific legal and financing risks make it unsuitable for this catalog.
More on the house and the area
This is a large, isolated rural house with a substantial private plot and a potentially attractive €37,501 price, but it has no scenic view or distinctive architectural character. The roof and main structure appear present, yet the grounds are severely neglected and the exterior needs significant cleanup and refurbishment. It may become a practical country home, but the gallery does not currently create a strong dream-home impression.
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€8,000 – €14,000
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 property is heavily overgrown and cluttered, with substantial clearing and cosmetic work evidently needed.
- No interior photos are provided, and the listing records zero bathrooms, so actual livability and utilities require verification.
- Auction purchase: legal status, occupancy, debts, access, and renovation costs must be checked in the court documentation.
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 42/100This is the lower Po plain around the Valli di Comacchio and the Argenta wetlands. The Valli di Argenta are within the local area and form part of the Po Delta Regional Park, with reclaimed farmland, canals, embankments and lagoon-like freshwater basins. Comacchio is the nearest distinctive town in the wider area, with services and a historic centre tied to the lagoon landscape. The area is known for wetlands, birdlife, eel fishing and land reclamation.
