This is a judicial-auction listing and the description says parts are partially demolished and collapsed; at €16,500 for ~180 m² it implies full restoration (~€1,100/m²). The auction paperwork does not confirm area and photos are only indicative, so bid only after thorough due diligence.
More on the house and the area
The supplied images show attractive, modern interiors and a photogenic brick exterior, but the official description says the property is partially demolished/collapsed. This is a renovation/rebuild project (not a move-in home) and will need significant works and auction/legal handling.
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€71,000 – €105,000
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 states the photos are indicative and may not represent the actual property.
- The Italian description explicitly says the house and service buildings are partially demolished and collapsed — likely uninhabitable and requiring major structural rebuilding.
- No bathrooms are recorded in the facts (baths: 0.0) and the sale is via auction, which adds legal/administrative complexity.
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 lower Po plain, in the reclaimed delta landscape between canals, embankments and flat farmland. The Po di Volano and the branches of the Po Delta are the main water features in this area. The Parco regionale del Delta del Po is within this radius, with lagoons, fishing valleys and wetlands around the eastern side toward Pomposa and the routes to the coast. Pomposa Abbey is near Codigoro and is one of the main historic monuments of this part of the province. The nearest town of size is Ferrara, which has the full range of services and a UNESCO historic centre, but it is outside the immediate landscape and does not raise the score. This area is known for delta wetlands, birdlife, fishing valleys and land reclamation.
