Price €52,500 for 154 m² but described as two agricultural units (abbandonato, no impianti) offered at auction and not legally a dwelling. Estimated restoration €1,100/m² → effective price ≈ €1,441/m²; auction + agricultural use makes this unsuitable as a residential purchase.
More on the house and the area
This is an auction lot for two agricultural units in an abandoned building — not a move-in home. No proven scenic setting or historic character in the pictures; expect a full rebuild, reconnection of utilities and possible change‑of‑use work.
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€61,000 – €90,000
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 photos are indicative only and do not show the real property.
- Description says the building is abandoned, in very poor maintenance and without functioning systems.
- Sale via auction: likely legal/administrative steps and full renovation/change-of-use required.
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.
