This is a judicial auction and the listing describes only agricultural/strumental buildings (stalla, porcilaia, tettoie) on farmland, not a residential property. Conversion would be extensive or legally impossible, so despite the low price (€72,000; ~€212/m2 vs regional median ≈€300/m2) this is a legal/usage trap.
More on the house and the area
Beautiful, open farmland with classic rolling-field views but the gallery shows only land and aerial plots. The listed structures appear to be agricultural outbuildings, not a ready-to-live house, so significant conversion and permit work is likely before it becomes a home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€134,000 – €199,000
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 only show fields/aerial plots — no residential exterior or interior is pictured.
- Existing buildings listed are agricultural (stables, pigsty, sheds) and would likely need conversion to become a home.
- No interior photos, utilities/permits or habitability details shown — additional checks required.
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 49/100The area sits in the lower Tronto valley between the Adriatic coastal plain and the first hills of southern Marche, with the Sibillini and Gran Sasso massifs visible farther inland on clear days but outside the immediate landscape. The Tronto river runs nearby. San Benedetto del Tronto is the nearest larger town, with a seafront, port, rail station and the main services of this stretch of coast; Ascoli Piceno is the main historic city inland, with a substantial old centre and services. Within about 15 km the setting is mainly cultivated hills, river plain, scattered villages and the urbanised corridor toward the coast. The wider area is known for vineyards, olive groves and the connection between the Adriatic coast and the Tronto route into the interior.
