- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (date 12/11/2026) — auction sales carry legal and procedural risk. At €34,935 plus estimated renovation €700/m² (≈€86,100) the effective price is ≈€121,035 (≈€985/m²), well above the regional median €409/m².
More on the house and the area
A compact two‑storey town house with small gated front and rear courtyards and an intact roofline — a solid starter property rather than a showhome. The interior is dated (ceramic floors, basic fittings, electric heaters) and the building needs refurbishment to be fully comfortable, but the low price makes it a realistic renovation project for someone wanting an affordable home in town.
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€24,000 – €43,000
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.

- Overall maintenance insufficient — cosmetic and likely systems work needed
- No central heating; single-glazed windows and electric heaters only
- Small, narrow paved front and rear courtyards (limited outdoor privacy and space)
- Rooms and finishes are dated; expect a full refurbishment to modernise kitchen/bath and surfaces
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 58/100This is the Po plain on the River Po, with levees, fields, irrigation channels and scattered riverside settlements. Sabbioneta lies nearby and is a UNESCO World Heritage site as a planned Renaissance town with ducal walls, a theatre and a regular street grid. Casalmaggiore itself is the nearest town of size, with services, shops and a working historic centre on the Po. The area is known for agriculture in the lower Po valley and for the network of small historic centres between the Lombard and Mantuan plain.
