This is explicitly an “asta immobiliare” (judicial auction), which is a veto regardless of the apparent €298/m² price versus the €367/m² baseline. The 168 m² property is also described as being cluttered with numerous materials and objects, adding execution and clearance risk.
More on the house and the area
A solid-looking 1980s villa set in a mature, leafy garden, with a pleasant exterior, balcony, terrace, garage, and generous 168 sqm of space. Inside, it appears structurally usable but extremely cluttered and dated, so it is more of a clean-out and refresh project than a move-in-ready dream home. The low price is appealing, but the auction format and shared-property arrangements reduce the wow factor.
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 – €19,000
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 potential legal, financing, and occupancy complexities.
- The house is heavily cluttered and will require extensive clearing before it can be properly assessed or used.
- Interiors appear dated, and the listing reports shared/common areas and a shared heating-plant room.
- No clear bathroom presentation or documentation of current systems and utilities is shown in the gallery.
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

The Po di Volano runs through this part of the province, and the lower Po delta lies nearby, with wetlands and lagoon landscapes toward Comacchio. Ferrara is the nearest city of size, with a large historic centre and UNESCO status as part of Ferrara, City of the Renaissance, and its Po Delta. The area is known for reclaimed farmland, waterways, and Delta produce such as rice and eel around Comacchio.
