Price of €222/m² is well below the regional median of €351/m² (37% discount) across a solid baseline of 4758 comparables. 88m² townhouse with private courtyard and adjacent rustico offering expansion potential. Central, well-served location adds value. Fresh listing (0 days). Missing baths (0.0), building year, and structured energy data are minor gaps. Bright spot: 20 photos and freehold, immediately available. Solid value opportunity for a renovation project.
More on the house and the area
Typical needs-renovation townhouse in central Predosa (Piemonte) with private courtyard and adjacent rustico. Brick arched facade offers modest historic character but is heavily degraded. Interiors are dated and dilapidated with vintage furniture, mold, and cracked walls. The vaulted kitchen and terrazzo floors are period touches but not striking. Very low price (€19,500, €222/m2) is the main draw, though the property needs full renovation. No standout view, location, or nature appeal. Ordinary fixer-upper with bargain pricing.
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.
Our read of the photos, €500/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€10,000 – €17,000
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.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
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 41/100The cluster sits in the lower Piedmont plain around the Orba valley, with the Bormida valley also nearby. This is mixed agricultural country between Alessandria, Novi Ligure and Ovada, with fields, scattered farmhouses and low hills starting farther south toward the Ligurian Apennines. The nearest town of size is Alessandria, which has the main rail and road services of the province, while Novi Ligure is another practical centre nearby. The wider area is known for wine zones and for the approach to the hills of the Ovadese, but within the immediate radius around Predosa the landscape is mainly ordinary lowland countryside.
