Judicial auction — sale via tribunal (check court documents). Listed at EUR 65,761 for 233 m² (EUR 282/m²); adding an estimated EUR 200/m² rehab gives an effective ≈EUR 482/m², well above the regional baseline EUR 359/m², and the auction plus contradictory bathroom data make this high-risk.
More on the house and the area
A large, very affordably priced village villa with nice rustic details (brick arches, multiple fireplaces and terracotta floors) and a private courtyard/plot. The house is currently liveable but feels dated and needs cleaning, some repairs and moisture remediation — a relatively straightforward renovation would make it a comfortable home.
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 – €26,000
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.
- Habitable but dated interiors with visible damp/mildew in places — cosmetic work and remediation likely required.
- Located directly on a provincial road (SP29) so expect traffic noise and limited privacy to the front.
- Auction sale — requires careful legal/title checks and confirmation of utilities before purchase.
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.
