See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (Tribunale RGE 107/2023) and the lot is reported occupied, creating legal and possession risks. Price €75,009 → €441/m2 (local median €449/m2) and listed as 'habitable', but the seller warns images are not real, so this is an auction-only, high-risk opportunity rather than a normal purchase.
More on the house and the area
Large, affordable duplex-style apartment with recently tiled finishes and a private paved corte/terrace — clearly habitable and good value for the size. It’s an ordinary town property rather than a romantic Italian countryside home, and the listing is an auction lot with some photos that appear indicative rather than exact. Verify occupancy/legal status and inspect actual unit condition.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€11,000 – €19,000
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.
- Mostly urban setting — no sea/landscape view from the terrace.
- Photos look staged/indicative and may not represent the exact finish of the auction unit.
- Lot is sold at auction and currently occupied — there may be legal/possession steps to complete.
- Some fixtures (bathroom toilet) appear unfinished in the photos. Verify utilities and full condition before bidding.
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 on the Adriatic coast, with a continuous seafront of beaches along Porto Sant'Elpidio and the coastal strip toward Civitanova Marche and Porto San Giorgio. The lower hills of the Marche rise a short distance inland, but within this radius the landscape is mainly coastal urban fabric, beach establishments and the flat coastal plain at the mouth area of the Chienti. Civitanova Marche is the nearest larger town and provides a full set of shops, services and rail links on the coast. Inland, the first historic hill towns of the Fermano are reachable in a short drive, but they sit beyond the immediate coastal setting. This stretch of coast is known for seaside tourism and footwear manufacturing in the wider area between Civitanova and Montegranaro.
