What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitable- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €9,173 price (€141/m²) is misleading: the description identifies a judicial auction, occupied unfinished attic rustico with no internal divisions, windows, or administrative title. This contradicts the stated “Habitable” condition and implies roughly €1,100/m² restoration costs, with legal and occupancy risks.
More on the house and the area
The building exterior is a plain apartment block, with no proven scenic view, garden or distinctive historic character. Despite the attractive staged interiors, the listed property is only a raw, unfinished shell and is not currently a usable home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€26,000 – €38,000
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 actual unit is an unfinished second-floor shell with no internal divisions, windows or fixtures.
- There are no bathrooms or kitchen, so substantial construction and installation work is required before it can be lived in.
- The listing states that the property is occupied and lacks acquired administrative title; auction documentation and legal status require careful checking.
- Most interior photos appear explicitly demonstrative and do not prove the condition of this property.
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 50/100The cluster is in the Crati valley, with cultivated hills and low ridges around the built-up area. The Crati river plain lies nearby, and the Tyrrhenian coast around Paola and the Gulf of Sant’Eufemia is a short drive west but outside the immediate landscape. The Sila mountains rise to the east beyond Cosenza, but they are not within the 15 km setting here. Cosenza is the nearest city of size and provides the main services, rail links and hospitals for the area. This part of Calabria is known for mixed agricultural land, hill villages and the corridor between the Tyrrhenian side and the Cosenza basin.
