This is a judicial-auction lot (price €56,625). Adding an estimated €700/m² renovation for 270 m² gives a total ≈€245,600 (≈€910/m²) vs the regional baseline ≈€308/m²; auction status plus indicative/missing photos and an undeclared official area make this unsuitable for typical buyers.
More on the house and the area
Photos show a neutral, recently‑finished interior shell with good new flooring, tiling and recessed lighting — a usable home once kitchen and final fixtures are installed. There is no visible garden, historic character or view, and the exterior image contradicts the listing text, so verify actual plans and condition before bidding.
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€53,000 – €95,000
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.

- Photos are generic/indicative and may not show the actual villa (advert states images are not real)
- Interiors look newly tiled and wired but kitchen and some bathroom fixtures appear unfinished
- No garden, view or rural character visible in the photos; exterior photo shows an urban apartment block, not a scenic villa
- Property is an auction lot — expect legal/technical work and due-diligence
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.
