See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (special procedures and risks). Estimated renovation €700/m² gives an effective price ≈€1,050/m² (total ≈€221,650), well above the regional median €417/m²; listing also states images are not the real photos, lowering confidence.
More on the house and the area
Photos show very bright, modern and spacious interiors (large open living spaces, a fitted kitchen and a high‑end bathroom) that feel like a desirable, livable home. However the official listing marks the unit as needing renovation and notes the advertising images may be indicative — confirm the real condition, services and outdoor space before proceeding.
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€42,000 – €74,000
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.

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 61/100The cluster is in the Irpinian hill country at the foot of the Monti Picentini. The Sabato valley runs through the area, and the Monti Picentini Regional Park begins nearby to the east with wooded ridges and higher inland relief. Avellino is the nearest town of size, with the usual provincial-city services, rail and road links, and a historic centre rebuilt after the 1980 earthquake. The area is known for hazelnuts, chestnuts and the wines of inland Campania, including the Taurasi and Fiano zone to the east and south-east.
