In the listingRenovatedSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Condition says 'Renovated' but description clearly states 'al grezzo' - sold as a bare shell (new build, unfinished, only windows/doors installed). Not habitable as-is; needs full interior completion (plumbing, electrical, flooring, kitchen, fixtures) costing ~500-700/m2. At 1000/m2 vs regional median 351/m2, price is ~3x baseline, though new-build shells command premiums. Missing energy class and build year. Panoramic view and expansion potential (+50sqm) are pluses, but the 'Renovated' label is misleading and total cost-to-finish makes this a weak deal at asking price.
More on the house and the area
New-build detached villetta in San Giorgio Monferrato sold 'al grezzo' (unfinished shell) with only windows installed. The one genuinely distinctive feature is the curved/circular glazed wall on the living area and the matching semicircular terrace above, which offer some architectural interest and a claimed panoramic view over Monferrato hills. However, interior photos reveal bare concrete walls, exposed brick ceilings, and construction materials - it is far from move-in ready. Exterior is a generic modern box among similar tract houses. The 'Renovated' condition tag is misleading given the raw state. At €1,000/m2 it is inexpensive, but buyer must fund full completion plus optional 50m2 expansion. Setting is an ordinary residential street, not a scroll-stopping location. Overall unremarkable pending significant work.
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, €600/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€20,000 – €35,000
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.
- Sold at grezzo (shell/unfinished) despite 'Renovated' tag - interior is bare concrete requiring full completion
- No energy class indicated
- Photos show construction debris, weeds, and incomplete interiors
- Exterior is plain builder-standard with no distinctive character
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 72/100The area is in the Monferrato hills, with vine-covered ridges, mixed farmland and small wooded slopes. The Po is the main river of the wider area and runs north of these hills near Casale Monferrato. Casale Monferrato is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre and services. Parts of Monferrato are UNESCO-listed as the vineyard landscape of Langhe-Roero and Monferrato, and this zone around Ozzano falls within that wine-hill setting. The area is known for wine, especially Barbera and Grignolino, and for the broader Monferrato farming landscape.
