This is a judicial auction listing (Tribunale: Vercelli), so it’s treated as an auction-case rather than a standard sale. Price €22,781 plus estimated €200/m2 renovation (€33,000) yields an effective ~€338/m2, above the regional baseline €261/m2.
More on the house and the area
The photos show high‑quality, move‑in ready interiors (wood floors, modern kitchen and bathroom) and an attractive historic exterior with pleasant skyline views. However the ad warns the images are indicative and the property is sold at auction, so confirm the real photos, land/courtyard and legal/title condition before assuming this exact home.
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€11,000 – €18,000
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.
- Photos in the ad are marked as indicative and may not depict the actual farmhouse — verify real images/planimetry.
- This is a judicial/auction listing (Tribunale) — expect legal/administrative steps and confirm occupancy/title before bidding.
- No clear photos of the promised outdoor/cortile/land — confirm size and condition of external areas and utilities.
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.
