This is a judicial auction ('in asta'), which brings legal/procedural risk. Estimating €200/m² to finish the upper floor yields an effective price ≈ €86k (≈€303/m²) vs regional baseline €255/m², and the ad contradicts itself by claiming 'Renovated' while the first floor is 'al rustico'.
More on the house and the area
A spacious 1960s villa on a private, tree‑filled plot with a livable, furnished ground floor and large potential. The upper floor is a raw shell so the house is part‑ready to live in but needs finishing and systems work — strong value for the size and location.
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€19,000 – €32,000
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.
- First floor is unfinished (rustico) and requires substantial completion/fit‑out.
- No heating or air conditioning present — systems will need installing.
- Property is sold at auction — buyer should complete legal/title checks and perizia before bidding.
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.
