This is an auction sale (legal/transactional risk) for a 546 m2 building offered at €84,000 (€154/m2). With habitable-condition renovation estimated at €200/m2 the effective cost is ~€354/m2, roughly in line with local market but the auction status makes it unsuitable for a normal purchase.
More on the house and the area
A large, solid 1986 block in a small mountain town with some green hillside visible — not photogenic or historic but structurally usable. Interiors are cluttered and dated but habitable, making this a clear budget buy for someone willing to clear, renovate and convert the commercial spaces into comfortable living areas.
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€36,000 – €61,000
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.
- Mixed-use roadside block with modest curb appeal — possible traffic/noise issues.
- Interior photos show heavy clutter and dated finishes; will need clearing and cosmetic renovation.
- Property is an auction listing — verify legal/title details and any liens before bidding.
- Images are low-quality black-and-white scans; on-site inspection recommended to confirm condition.
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.
