At €65,000 plus an estimated €28,000 in upkeep, the effective cost is about €664/m²—roughly double the €332/m² level for comparable homes, despite the house appearing generally habitable. The description mentions two bathrooms while the listing facts show one, and it does not state the construction year or energy rating.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable and highly characterful Monferrato home, with warm vaulted interiors, a fireplace, tiled kitchen, rustic details, and a very attractive covered courtyard. The house appears solid, furnished, and ready to use rather than a renovation shell, with extra appeal from the cellar tavern and traditional atmosphere.
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€9,000 – €16,000
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.
- The home has a strongly traditional, somewhat dated decorative style that may not suit everyone.
- The advertised panoramic hill views are not clearly demonstrated in the provided gallery.
- The listing description mentions multiple bathrooms, while the structured facts list only one; this should be verified.
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.
