This is a judicial-auction lot (Tribunale) sold as-is and described in 'mediocre/scarce' condition with placeholder images, not a move-in home. At €12,375 for 96 m2 plus an estimated €1,100/m2 to restore (effective ≈ €1,229/m2) versus the local median €228/m2, this is a high-cost restoration and best for experienced auction buyers.
More on the house and the area
The supplied images show a fresh, modern interior, but the official listing warns the photos are not of the real unit. The actual farmhouse is described as degraded and will need substantial repair, so this is a bargain project rather than a move-in dream 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€38,000 – €56,000
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.
- Advert states the photos are indicative and do not represent the real property.
- Official description says the rural farmhouse shows mediocri/scarse conditions with evident structural/maintenance degradation.
- Property is an auction listing — purchase may involve legal/administrative complexity and renovation liabilities.
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 61/100The cluster lies in the inland hills on the eastern side of the Serre Calabresi. The Ancinale valley is the main local landform here, with wooded slopes and mixed farmland around the settlements. The Ionian coast around Soverato is the nearest coast and is part of everyday access, but it is outside the immediate inland landscape. Serra San Bruno is the nearest town of note in the uplands, with the Certosa and the regional park territory of the Serre nearby. This part of Calabria is known for chestnut and beech woods in the higher hills and for small hill towns between the Serre and the Ionian side.
