This is a judicial auction listing (Tribunale/asta) for a 214 m² townhouse offered at EUR 41,625 and described as abandoned, creating legal/possession complexity; the ad also says the photos are not the real images. Auction status makes this unsuitable for our standard buy-and-renovate pipeline.
More on the house and the area
A large three‑level townhouse with good room volumes and a balcony overlooking open countryside, so it has real potential. However the estate description calls it abandoned and in need of extensive renovation (no recorded bathrooms), so this is a project purchase rather than a ready-to-live-in dream 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€42,000 – €75,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

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 56/100The area sits in the first Apennine hills of the Savio valley. The Savio river runs through the area toward Cesena. Within this radius the landscape is mainly wooded slopes, fields and scattered hamlets, with the denser services concentrated toward Cesena, which has a full range of shops, schools, rail links and hospitals. The wider area is known for hill farming and for the route inland from Romagna toward the Tuscan-Romagnolo Apennines.
