In the listingNeeds renovation- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial-auction listing (Tribunale) and the ad warns that photos are only indicative, so purchase follows auction procedures. Estimated renovation ≈€700/m² → ~€91,000; with price €28,687 the effective cost ≈€119,700 (~€921/m²) versus the local baseline €765/m², making this an auction risk rather than a straightforward bargain.
More on the house and the area
Photos show attractive, modern-finished rooms and a pleasant valley view from a balcony, while the exterior reveals an older stone building with worn plaster and real historic character. The structure and a sloped court (~170 m²) suggest a usable home once renovated, and the very low price is a clear bargain — but expect significant renovation and to verify which photos are truly of this unit.
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€26,000 – €46,000
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.

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 76/100The cluster is in the Lys Valley under the Monte Rosa massif, with steep alpine slopes and high side valleys within the 15 km landscape. The Lys river runs through the valley. Much of the surrounding high ground lies in the Monte Rosa area, with the Mont Mars Nature Reserve nearby above Fontainemore. The nearest ski lifts are in the Monterosa Ski domain around Gressoney-Saint-Jean and Staffal, roughly 20–35 minutes by road depending on the access point. The nearest town of some size is Pont-Saint-Martin at the mouth of the valley, with everyday services and rail access; Ivrea is farther away outside the immediate landscape. The area is known for Walser settlements and alpine pastoral landscapes in the upper Lys Valley.
