See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial-auction lot listing and the text explicitly lists 'fabbricato diruto' (collapsed buildings) and non-real photos; a full rebuild is estimated at ~1,100 €/m², making the effective cost ≈240,350 € (≈1,118 €/m²) versus the local baseline 233 €/m², so it is not a liveable buy.
More on the house and the area
This listing is an auction package of derelict buildings and land in Calabria, not a move-in farmhouse. The low price is the main attraction, but the site appears to be a ruin requiring substantial reconstruction rather than a livable, characterful 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€85,000 – €126,000
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 ad are indicative/stock and do not represent the real property.
- The legal description lists multiple 'fabbricato diruto' (derelict buildings) and land — not a ready home.
- Property sold at auction — legal/administrative assistance will be required.
- Likely requires full rebuilding/major renovation and may lack utilities or finishes.
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 52/100The cluster is in the Crati valley with the Coastal Range of Calabria and the first Sila foothills in the wider view around Luzzi. The Crati River runs through this part of the province. Cosenza is the nearest city of size, with a full range of services, a university area in the urban region, and a substantial historic centre. This inland part of the Cosenza province is known for olive groves, mixed farmland, and hill villages above the valley floor.
