At €868/m², the asking price is about 31% above the local €664/m² benchmark before accounting for the double garage, terraces, private outdoor space, and no condominium fees. The apartment appears usable from the description, but its condition and construction year are not stated, while energy class G suggests potentially higher running costs.
More on the house and the area
A spacious, bright and clearly livable apartment with two long terraces, complete kitchen and bathroom, garage, and practical outdoor space. Its strongest appeal is usability and generous size rather than Italian character or dramatic beauty; the furnishings and finishes are dated but serviceable.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but visibly dated and may need cosmetic updating.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high heating costs.
- The setting is ordinary suburban/residential, with no notable scenic view shown.
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 38/100The area lies in the flat to gently rolling plain between the lower Scrivia valley and the first hills around Novi Ligure and Tortona, with a landscape of fields, roads and scattered industry. The Scrivia river runs nearby. Novi Ligure is the nearest town of size, with rail links, services and a historic centre; Alessandria is the larger provincial city in the wider area. This part of southeast Piemonte is known for wine zones and hill country farther south around Gavi and the Colli Tortonesi, but those are outside the immediate surroundings.
