This is a judicial auction (procedure 21025FE.231026), which carries legal and occupancy risks — buy via auction only if you accept those. After an estimated €200/m² rehab the effective price is about €80k total (~€833/m²) versus a regional baseline of €467/m², so it is not a below‑market bargain.
More on the house and the area
A solid, modern townhouse with private front/rear courts and a garage — genuinely habitable and roomy for the price. It’s a good bargain for someone willing to fix water damage and do cosmetic updates; not a picturesque or historic escape but a practical, affordable home close to the coast.
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€6,000 – €11,000
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.
- Visible water stains and mould on ceilings — likely roof/balcony or plumbing leaks that need investigation and repair
- Cosmetic updating and repairs required in several rooms (ceilings, finishes)
- Garage is present but description notes no internal connection to the house
- Property is an auction/pre-asta sale — legal/administrative steps and checks required before purchase
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.
