See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing (ASTA) requiring tribunal paperwork and specialist legal checks, which makes it a risky auction case. Listed at €78,890 for 300 m2 with estimated renovation €200/m2 (€60k) gives an effective €138,890 (~€463/m2), well above the regional median €255/m2.
More on the house and the area
Large, solid two‑storey villa (1986) with garden/olive trees and a walled courtyard about 2 km from the sea — good size and usable now. Interiors are habitable but dated and in need of cleaning and cosmetic updating; attractive as a low‑cost, high‑space buy if you’re prepared to renovate and handle an auction purchase.
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€20,000 – €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 sold at auction — verify title, costs and procedures with a lawyer.
- Interior is dated, cluttered and somewhat neglected; expects cosmetic works and cleaning.
- Photos are dark and don’t show standout views; the house sits close to the road so privacy/views are limited.
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 68/100The area sits on the Ionian coast of the Locride, with long beaches on the Gulf of Squillace and the lower slopes of the Aspromonte massif rising inland. The Torbido valley opens just inland of Siderno, and the Ionian coast road and railway run along the shore. Parco Nazionale dell’Aspromonte begins farther inland beyond the first belt of coastal and foothill settlements, so it is relevant for access but not inside the immediate landscape. The nearest larger centre is Locri, adjoining Siderno, with everyday services and the archaeological area of Locri Epizefiri nearby. Gerace stands on the hill a few kilometres inland, with its cathedral and historic centre, and it is a member of I Borghi più belli d’Italia. This stretch of coast is known for citrus groves, olive cultivation and the Greek-Calabrian historic area of the Locride.
