Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (procedural and legal complexity). At €18,610 plus an estimated €700/m² renovation (~€67,900) the effective total is ≈€86,510 (≈€890/m²) versus the regional median of €375/m²; the listing is very degraded and also shows contradictory data about bathrooms.
More on the house and the area
A humble rural farmhouse with original terracotta and wooden floors, an accessible attic and a 406 m² plot — a real country setting with character. The house is structurally complete but quite degraded inside and out, so it’s a renovation project rather than a move‑in home, priced attractively for that 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€19,000 – €34,000
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 degraded with visible damp/infiltration and peeling plaster
- Heating currently non‑functional and single‑glazed wooden windows; systems need updating
- Requires a full cosmetic renovation (walls, exterior plaster, shutters) though structure/roof appear intact
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.
