What it really costs
- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing ("Data di asta", "Offerta minima", "Procedura"), which is an automatic veto for this catalog. The house itself sounds basically habitable with heating and double glazing, but auction status overrides the low €103/m² asking price.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house rather than a shell, with functioning kitchen and bathroom and some character from the exposed wood-beam upper floor. But the overall look is plain and worn, with no view and only modest charm from the courtyard setting. The very low price boosts appeal, yet this feels more practical bargain than dream-home fantasy.
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€13,000 – €22,000
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.
- Exterior is quite tired and patchy, with visible facade wear and improvised-looking access stair.
- Private courtyard has a right of way for third parties, so it is not fully private.
- Interior looks usable but dated, with clutter and likely cosmetic updating needed.
- This is an auction property, so legal/occupancy checks are essential.
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 39/100The area sits in the Bormida plain around Alessandria, with flat to gently rolling agricultural land and the Bormida river system close by. Alessandria is the nearest town of size and has the full range of everyday services, rail connections and a substantial historic centre. To the south and west, beyond the immediate 15 km landscape, the Monferrato hills and the Langhe are part of the wider province and region, but they are not the dominant setting here. This part of Piemonte is known for mixed farming and for its position on the road and rail corridor between Turin, Genoa and the lower Po plain.
