Listing is a judicial auction (Tribunale) and the building is described in very poor condition and without heating; realistic restoration is estimated at about €1,100/m² (~€277k total) versus the €21,832 sale price, so this is an auction-only, heavily distressed asset.
More on the house and the area
The photos show a plain, recently-tiled interior that could become a simple, light home, but there are visible unfinished finishes and the listing warns the property is in poor condition and lacks heating. Large floor area and very low price are attractive, but expect renovation and verification before assuming it's move-in ready.
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€100,000 – €147,000
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 text states the building is in poor repair, currently let and without heating (must verify).
- Advertiser notes the photos may be indicative and not the actual unit shown.
- Interior photos show some unfinished fittings (bath/shower base, exposed plumbing) — further work needed.
- Possible missing utilities or major maintenance required — budget for upgrades.
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 33/100This is the lower Po plain between the Oglio and Po river systems, with flat farmland, drainage canals and scattered hamlets. The Po runs nearby to the south and the Oglio is not far to the east, shaping the area more as reclaimed agricultural plain than as a distinct river landscape. Casalmaggiore is the nearest town of size and has everyday services, a hospital and a bridge crossing of the Po. The area is known for intensive agriculture and for the wider Cremonese-Mantovano plain rather than for a named scenic site within the immediate surroundings.
