This is an auction lot of agricultural buildings (stalla, fienile) offered at €13,645 (listed €25/m² on ~545 m²) and the auction paperwork and description say area is estimated and photos are not the real ones; such farm structures are typically not habitable without major change of use and permits, so treat as a trap.
More on the house and the area
Lovely, wide-open agricultural landscape with strong rural views and lots of usable land. The asset is an agricultural complex that appears habitable on paper but will likely need conversion and paperwork to become a comfortable home; verify real photos and the perizia.
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€36,000 – €61,000
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.
- Photos in the listing are indicative only and not of the real property.
- Property is an agricultural complex (stables, barn, processing areas) — may need conversion for comfortable residential use.
- Confirm utilities, residential permits and exact condition from the auction perizia before bidding.
- Sale by auction: expect legal/bureaucratic steps and potential hidden costs.
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.
