In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €87,000 (€763/m²), the home is well above the local €356/m² reference; allowing about €22,800 for habitable-condition work brings the effective cost to roughly €963/m². The 2,500 m² private grounds, double garage, renovated systems and Langhe location add value, but the listing notes that some photos were AI-generated, so verify the property carefully.
More on the house and the area
A solid, habitable former farmhouse with a sunny balcony, rural Langhe views, private outdoor space and a pleasant traditional roofline. The house appears ready to live in, with a working kitchen, bathroom, heating and finished floors, but the interiors are conventional and dated rather than especially characterful.
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€8,000 – €13,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated and likely need cosmetic updating.
- The outdoor areas are spacious, though much of the courtyard is hard-surfaced and somewhat untidy.
- Energy performance is not provided, and the listing notes that some photos were AI-generated.
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 73/100This is in the Roero hill country, with vineyard slopes and mixed farmed ridges on the left side of the Tanaro valley. The Tanaro runs nearby, and the Langhe hills begin just across the river. Alba is the nearest town of size, with a full service centre, a historic core and the main market town role for both Roero and Langhe. The area is known for wine, especially Roero and nearby Barbaresco zones, and for hazelnuts and truffle country centered on Alba.
