This is a judicial auction (procedura 451/2024, minimo offerta €11.250) — auction properties are excluded from our catalog. Estimated renovation €700/m² (≈€107k total) makes the effective price ≈€118k (≈€773/m²), well above the regional median €408/m².
More on the house and the area
Large, very low‑priced townhouse on a narrow Lombardy street with some old‑world charm (arched doorway, shutters) but no views or garden. The interior is an incomplete renovation (category F/4) — a project requiring substantial work rather than a move‑in home.
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€30,000 – €54,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

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 32/100The cluster sits in the Po Valley (Lombard plain): flat, low-lying agricultural landscape. The immediate surroundings are intensively farmed with irrigated fields, a network of drainage and irrigation canals, and a mix of cereals and maize with local rice cultivation and livestock farms typical of the Lomellina area. There are no named mountain ranges, lakes, or regional/national parks within about 15 km. The Po river system and its tributary channels/canals are the principal hydrographic features shaping the territory. The nearest local centre of size is Mortara (a Lomellina town) which provides a railway station, weekly markets and basic services; larger centres such as Pavia, Voghera and Piacenza are the nearest hospitals/university/bigger-railway hubs and lie farther away. No UNESCO designation or other major tourism status is typical for the immediate plain around Casei Gerola.
