See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (Tribunale di Brescia) and the ad states the property is occupied and that photos are not the real images, creating legal and disclosure risk. With an estimated €200/m² to make it fully usable the effective price is ~€145,918 total (~€460/m²), above the local median of €416/m², so it’s not a clear bargain and auction complexity makes it a risky buy.
More on the house and the area
The supplied images show fresh, modern, move‑in–ready interiors (kitchen and contemporary bathrooms) and an attractive historic façade — visually appealing and clearly livable. The advertised 317 m² with cellar and garage at ~€82k is a strong bargain, but the listing warns the photos aren’t of the actual unit and the property is occupied, so verify real photos, plans and the occupancy/legal status before committing.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€21,000 – €35,000
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 explicitly states the photos are indicative and do NOT represent the actual property — obtain real photos and floorplans.
- Property is reported as occupied — purchase at auction may require eviction/legal steps.
- No images of private outdoor space or views — unclear whether the villa includes usable garden/land.
- Key data missing (energy class/building year) — check technical/legal documentation before bidding.
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 38/100Pontoglio sits on the western Brescian plain near the Oglio River, in the farmed lowland between Brescia and Bergamo. Lake Iseo is the nearest major landscape feature, but it lies beyond the immediate 15 km radius. The nearest larger towns are Palazzolo sull'Oglio and Romano di Lombardia for everyday services, while Brescia and Bergamo are the main cities used for higher-level services and rail links. This part of the plain is known for arable farming and dispersed industrial activity along the road corridor.
