This is a judicial auction (legal/process risk). At €22,490 plus estimated renovation €700/m² (58 m² → total ≈ €63,090 ≈ €1,088/m²) versus the regional baseline €255/m², the effective cost is very high for the area.
More on the house and the area
Cute, characterful little centro‑storico house with a sunny painted facade and a balcony; structurally intact and ready to be claimed from auction. Expect to do utilities, finish/refurbish interiors and address signs of wear — a genuine, affordable starter home in need of work.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- No heating and electricity supply currently disconnected — services must be reactivated/installed
- Some previous repairs show signs of degradation; internal refurbishment likely required
- Small 58 m² layout (1 bedroom + limited living space) — not a large family house
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 61/100The cluster lies in the inland hills on the eastern side of the Serre Calabresi. The Ancinale valley is the main local landform here, with wooded slopes and mixed farmland around the settlements. The Ionian coast around Soverato is the nearest coast and is part of everyday access, but it is outside the immediate inland landscape. Serra San Bruno is the nearest town of note in the uplands, with the Certosa and the regional park territory of the Serre nearby. This part of Calabria is known for chestnut and beech woods in the higher hills and for small hill towns between the Serre and the Ionian side.
