See what needs doing and what each job costs
Listing is a judicial auction and describes the unit as a 'rustico' shell (only concrete structure, no finishes). At an estimated €1,100/m² to finish, effective price ≈€1,188/m² vs regional typical €225/m², so this is a high-cost shell sold at auction.
More on the house and the area
The listing shows a large, well-proportioned unit with strong renovation potential and attractive interior ideas, plus a small private courtyard — and it’s a real bargain. However the actual property is a bare concrete shell (rustico) so it is a project rather than a move-in home and will need a full, potentially costly refit and careful legal checks.
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€121,000 – €179,000
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.
- Exterior photo and legal description state the unit is 'allo stato rustico' (only the reinforced concrete structure) — not finished inside.
- Interior photos appear demonstrative/staged and do not match the raw exterior; expect full renovation (floors, partitions, plumbing, electrics, bathrooms, kitchen).
- Sale by auction — check legal/title status, auction terms and potential need for sanatoria/permits.
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 lies on the lower slopes west of Cosenza, in the valley system that opens toward the Crati plain, with the Coastal Range rising a short distance to the west. The Savuto valley and the first Tyrrhenian-facing mountains are within the local hinterland, and the Sila massif is visible farther east beyond Cosenza but outside the immediate landscape. Cosenza is the nearest town of size, with a full set of services, a historic centre, and the urban area shared with Rende. The area is known mainly as the inland edge between the Cosenza urban basin and the Tyrrhenian side of northern Calabria, with mixed hillside settlement and access routes across the province.
