At €98,000 for 150 m², the apparent price is €653/m²; allowing about €30,000 for unspecified updating brings the estimate to roughly €853/m², well above the €337/m² local comparison level. The private garden, parking, furnishings and proximity to Alessandria add appeal, but the listing does not say whether the house is fully habitable or disclose its age and energy performance.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable, furnished country home with warm brick-vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, two bathrooms, and a large, highly usable covered outdoor entertaining area. The private garden and open green surroundings add real rural appeal, while the house appears move-in ready rather than a renovation shell.
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€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.
- The exterior is attractive and well maintained but not architecturally exceptional.
- The covered courtyard and outbuildings look practical rather than fully finished living spaces.
- Utilities, heating performance, and legal status are not confirmed by the listing.
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.
