- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (Tribunale Biella) offered at €16,312 (~€91/m2); listed as 'Needs renovation' so roughly €700/m2 -> ~€142,300 total (~€791/m2). Auction sale process and the ad's note that images are only indicative make this unsuitable for a normal purchase without specialist auction advice.
More on the house and the area
Photos show a clean, recently‑tiled interior and an installed bathroom, but the advert warns the images aren’t the real ones and the file lists the building as needing renovation. If the photos match reality this could be a very cheap, basic home, but there’s no evidence of character, views or outdoor space.
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€36,000 – €63,000
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.

- Listing explicitly states images are indicative only and may not represent the real unit.
- Property is marked as 'Needs renovation' — actual condition, utilities and legal status may require work.
- No exterior, view, garden or historic features are shown in the photos.
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 58/100The area sits in the Biellese foothills, with the lower Alps rising north toward the Biella prealps and the Monte Rosa chain visible from parts of the province. The Cervo and Sessera valleys are within this radius, and the landscape around Cossato is a mix of settled plain and lower hills with woods and fields rather than high mountain terrain. The nearest substantial town is Biella, which has full services, a historic centre and the Sacro Monte di Oropa above it; Oropa is a UNESCO-listed Sacri Monti site but it lies beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. This part of the Biellese is known for wool and textile manufacturing.
