See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction and the description states the unit is 'allo stato grezzo' with no floors, systems or fixtures, so expect a full restoration (~€1,100/m²). That implies an effective price of about €1,735/m² (≈€165k total) versus the regional median €657/m², making it overpriced and risky to buy at auction.
More on the house and the area
95 m² ground‑floor unit with two exclusive resedi (private outdoor spaces) and a parking spot — good bones and a strong price for the area. However the apartment is a raw shell with no fittings or utilities, so this is a renovation project rather than a move‑in 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€38,000 – €56,000
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.
- Unit sold at auction and the listing images are indicative, not photos of the actual unit.
- Property is allo stato grezzo: no internal partitions, no floors, no finishes, no fixtures or building systems (electric/plumbing/heating).
- Requires full renovation/fit‑out before habitation; check permits and condominium rules.
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 55/100This cluster is in the built-up area of Arezzo, so the resident setting is an inland city on the Val di Chiana side of eastern Tuscany rather than open countryside. The Pratomagno range rises to the north-west within this area, and the upper Tiber valley and Casentino are the main surrounding valleys. The Arno basin is part of the local geography. The nearest substantial town is Arezzo itself, with a large historic centre, Roman and medieval remains, major churches and museums, and regular rail links toward Florence and Rome. The city is known for Piero della Francesca, goldsmithing and the monthly antiques fair.
