See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is being sold at judicial auction (Tribunale di Bergamo, offerta minima €30,894), so it is not a normal market listing. The structured data shows 0 bathrooms while the description lists multiple bathrooms, a clear contradiction; I used €200/m² as the renovation estimate for a 'habitable' condition.
More on the house and the area
A roomy, characterful village house with impressive stone portico and vaulted cellars and a private garden — very photogenic and clearly historic. The property is described as habitable and would make a charming move-in-or-refresh home, but it is sold at auction and needs paperwork regularisation before works.
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€18,000 – €31,000
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.
- Sale by judicial auction — strict rules, deadlines and fees apply
- Building has documented difformità that require SCIA in sanatoria (regularisation)
- Limited photos; condition of bathrooms/kitchen not clearly shown
- Small private garden and village-centre setting mean limited views and parking
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 73/100The cluster sits in the Orobie Bergamasche, in the upper Val Serina, with pre-Alpine ridges and steep wooded slopes around the village. The Serina valley is a branch of the Brembana system, and the Brembo river valley is the main route down toward San Pellegrino Terme and Bergamo. The Parco delle Orobie Bergamasche lies nearby in the surrounding mountains. The nearest substantial skiing is the Brembo Ski area around Foppolo and Carona, roughly an hour by road depending on conditions. Zogno and San Pellegrino Terme are the nearest larger centres in the valley system for everyday services, while Bergamo is the main city reached by road over the passes or down the valley. The area is known for mountain villages, forests, summer walking and the old spa axis of the Brembana valley.
