This is a judicial-auction listing described as 'in stato di abbandono' (we treat auction properties as ineligible). Price €78,204 plus estimated renovation €700/m² (147 m²) yields ~€1,232/m² vs local median €371/m², and the ad also says the photos are not the real property, so the condition claims are contradictory.
More on the house and the area
Large, inexpensive villa with a substantial private courtyard — a real bargain for the size. Interiors are mixed: a couple of modernised rooms (and a very nice bathroom) but also clearly derelict/abandoned spaces, so expect renovation to make it fully liveable. Not a view-led dream, but a practical project that could become a comfortable home.
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€29,000 – €51,000
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.
- Property is an auction (Tribunale) lot — buy via legal/auction process and confirm status.
- Photos and description conflict: some rooms look newly refurbished while others appear abandoned — expect uneven condition and renovation work.
- No scenic views; courtyard is private but mostly paved. Verify utilities/heating and presence of functioning bathrooms.
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 is known for mineral springs and vineyards, especially Falanghina del Sannio.
