What it really costs

See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly an "asta immobiliare" (judicial auction), which is a veto red flag for this catalog regardless of the low €30,505 asking price. The listing also includes ancillary buildings and agricultural land, so the €201/m² figure is not a clean comparison to the Liguria villa baseline of €347/m².
More on the house and the area
The setting is the main appeal here: a secluded Ligurian hillside with green valley views and a large amount of land, plus useful outbuildings. The house itself appears roofed, furnished and basically habitable, with simple rustic-beam interiors, but it looks plain and dated rather than truly beautiful. At this price, the land and usable house create some dream value, though it is more lifestyle project than instant wow home.
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.
- Auction sale: due diligence on legal/occupancy status is essential
- Interiors shown are only partial and look basic/dated rather than polished
- Rural hillside setting may mean car-dependent access and limited services nearby
- No bathroom photos provided, so full livability is not fully proven
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 61/100The cluster lies in the inland hills between the Bormida valley and the Ligurian Apennines. The Bormida di Pallare runs through the area. The Alta Via dei Monti Liguri crosses the ridge country nearby, and the regional park of Bric Tana is at Millesimo. The nearest substantial town is Cairo Montenotte, which has the main services of the upper Val Bormida; Savona on the coast is the nearest larger city. This part of inland Savona is known for wooded ridges, small valley villages and mixed chestnut and beech country rather than for a single landmark.
