This is a judicial auction listing ('ASTA IMMOBILIARE'), which carries legal and procedural risks. Using a habitable-condition renovation estimate (~€200/m²) gives an effective price of ≈€678/m² versus the regional baseline of €416/m², so it is not a clear bargain.
More on the house and the area
A solid, habitable 1986 semi‑detached villa with a small private garden, garage and terrace—clearly usable as a family home. Modest curb appeal but good value for Lombardy; expect cosmetic work and confirm auction/legal details before buying.
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€13,000 – €22,000
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.
- Most interior photos are blacked out so full condition is unclear
- Suburban setting with no notable views or historic features
- Property is an auction lot — verify legal/title issues and extra fees
- Likely cosmetic updating needed (kitchen/bathrooms)
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 34/100This is the southern Mantovano plain in the lower Po basin, with flat farmland, drainage canals and scattered hamlets. The Secchia runs a few kilometres west of Pegognaga, and the Po is farther north beyond Suzzara and Gonzaga. Mantova is the nearest city of size, with its historic centre and the lakes formed by the Mincio around the city, but those are outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for intensive agriculture and for the Gonzaga plain south of Mantova.
