In the listingHabitable- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Listing is a judicial auction ('asta'), which we treat as a veto. At €6,000 for 240 m² (25 €/m²), adding a modest €200/m² renovation cost (€48,000) yields an effective price of ~€54,000 (~225 €/m²) versus the regional median €419/m², but the auction status and the implausibly low asking price with only one photo make this unsuitable for our catalog.
More on the house and the area
Very cheap, large terraced house in town but visually plain and utilitarian rather than scenic. Described as habitable, yet the photos suggest basic, dated condition and likely renovation to make it a comfortable home; good as a budget project or investment rather than a ready-made Italian dream.
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€16,000 – €27,000
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.
- Only one exterior photo provided — interior layout, finishes and utilities are unknown.
- Sold via auction/pre-aste process — legal fees, timing and extra costs likely.
- Exterior looks dated and the house will need updating to be a comfortable, dream home.
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 58/100The cluster lies on the low hills between the Oglio valley and the Bergamo plain, in a mixed landscape of vineyards, small woods and built-up villages. The Oglio river is nearby and marks the edge between the Bergamo and Brescia sides of Franciacorta-country. Lake Iseo is the nearest major water body, around the western side of this area and within normal local driving distance, but not inside the immediate landscape. The nearest substantial towns are Bergamo and Brescia; closer local centres such as Sarnico and Grumello del Monte provide everyday services. The area is known for wine production, especially Valcalepio, and for vineyard countryside rather than for a single major natural monument.
