What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €48,000 for 90 sqm, the ask is €533/sqm; with a needs-renovation allowance of about €700/sqm, the effective cost is roughly €1,233/sqm versus a very low internal baseline of €263/sqm for Piemonte farmhouses. The listing has concrete details, 28 photos, central location and a rented commercial unit (€360/month), which supports value, but it is not a deep discount once renovation is included.
More on the house and the area
The real wow here is the unexpectedly beautiful countryside view from the terrace and rear rooms, plus the atmospheric vaulted cellar and some old-house character. It is not a ruin: there is a bathroom, stairs, windows and heating, so it looks like a basically usable house, but the interiors are tired and several spaces need proper updating. At this price, the combination of a central village position with a big panoramic rear outlook gives it genuine dream potential.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€18,000 – €32,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Interiors look dated and need real renovation/refreshing.
- Only some spaces are shown as usable; parts of the rear/lower areas look rough and unfinished.
- Garden/outbuilding area appears overgrown and may need clearing.
- Street-front setting is central rather than idyllic from the facade side.
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 66/100This is in the Monferrato hill country, with vine-covered ridges and small valleys. The area is known for Barbera d’Asti wine, and Castagnole Monferrato is associated with the Ruchè grape. Asti is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre, services and rail connections. Parts of Monferrato farther east are included in the UNESCO wine landscape of Langhe-Roero and Monferrato, but the immediate landscape here is ordinary vineyard countryside rather than one of the best-known sections.
