Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction and the property is described as being 'in pessimo stato' (very poor condition). At €10,251 (~€49/m2) but with heavy restoration (~€1,100/m2) the effective cost and auction risks make this a trap for a normal buy.
More on the house and the area
The supplied photos show a clean, modern interior, but the auction description states the actual building is in very poor condition and will need substantial restoration. The lot is large (several small land parcels and a 3.5‑are wooded meadow), but this is a renovation project bought at auction rather than a move‑in ready dream 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€83,000 – €122,000
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.
- Listing images are labelled as indicative and may NOT be the real photos of this property.
- Property is described in the official notice as "pessimo stato di manutenzione e conservazione" (very poor condition) and sold at auction — expect major renovation work and legal/possession steps.
- Urban/courtyard setting with neighbouring apartment block — not a scenic mountain/lake view despite included land parcels. Utilities/finishes should be verified.
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 68/100The cluster sits on the Serra d'Ivrea, the long morainic ridge left by the Balteo glacier, with wooded slopes and a sequence of small hill villages between Biella and Ivrea. The Elvo valley and the lower Biellese prealps are nearby, and the higher Biella Alps rise to the north within the local horizon. The nearest substantial town is Biella, which has full services, a railway terminus, and the wool-textile heritage for which the area is known. The Oasi Zegna mountain area is farther north in the Biella Alps, but not inside the immediate 15 km landscape.
