The listing repeatedly presents auction (asta) services, so it is a judicial-auction offer and is flagged as such. Estimated renovation €200/m² gives an effective price of €149,400 (~€412/m²) vs regional baseline €290/m², and the ad omits key data (condition, energy class) and lists 0 baths despite describing a W.C.
More on the house and the area
A traditional rural farmhouse with authentic brick, beams and portico set in open farmland near the coast — lots of character and land. The building is roofed and largely intact but needs substantial renovation and systems work before it’s a comfortable, move-in home.
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€24,000 – €41,000
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.
- Property is in poor cosmetic condition — visible damp, cracked plaster and water stains; significant renovation and finishing works needed.
- Limited/no working services shown (bathroom/kitchen not usable); expect plumbing/electrical upgrades and permits.
- Large outbuildings and attic/loft spaces are cluttered and would require clearing and structural checks; budget for roof/beam repairs.
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 58/100This is on the Romagna plain close to the Adriatic coast and the Canal Port of Cesenatico, the historic canal associated with Leonardo da Vinci, is the main local feature. The coast here is low and sandy, with beaches, pinewoods and the saline wetland area around Cervia within the wider 15 km zone. Rimini and Cesena are the nearest larger centres for services, rail links and hospitals. The area is known for seaside tourism, fishing and flat agricultural land behind the coast.
