Livable, but something basic is worn out

- Registered as agricultural or storage, not as a dwelling
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Hard veto: the listing is explicitly an auction ("asta immobiliare") and mainly consists of rural buildings and land ("fabbricato rurale", "terreno"), so it is not a normal turnkey dwelling purchase. The facts also contradict the ad: marked as a 478 sqm habitable villa at €138/m², but the text describes an auction lot of rural buildings/land, making the baseline comparison unreliable.
More on the house and the area
There is some real Ligurian hillside charm here: stone rural buildings, greenery and distant valley views, plus a lot of space for the money. But this is not a polished dream home today — only parts shown look basically usable, while other structures appear rough and in need of major work. It feels more like a big rural project with habitable sections than an immediately lovable move-in house.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€189,000 – €280,000
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.
- Auction sale with documentation/legal checks needed
- Main buildings look partly very worn and likely need substantial renovation
- Interiors shown are habitable but dated and dark
- Hillside road access and layout may be awkward
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 58/100The cluster is in the Ligurian Apennines on the upper Polcevera valley, with wooded ridges and narrow side valleys immediately around it. The Polcevera stream runs through the valley. The western edge of Parco naturale regionale del Beigua lies within reach of the area around Campomorone, and the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri crosses the surrounding mountain country. The nearest sizeable city is Genoa, which has full city services, a major port and rail connections. The area is known for inland Ligurian valley settlements between the Apennine passes and Genoa.
