See what needs doing and what each job costs
The listing is explicitly an “asta immobiliare” judicial auction, which carries legal and financing risks despite the attractive €72,000 price for 276 m². It also covers multiple buildings, agricultural land and movable assets rather than presenting a straightforward residential purchase.
More on the house and the area
The leafy setting and substantial 276 sqm compound at €72,000 suggest potential value, but there is no proven architectural character, view, or attractive interior in the available material. Although described as habitable, the missing bathroom information and auction status keep this from feeling like a ready-to-live-in dream 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€18,000 – €31,000
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.
- The available image shows only a broad driveway and dense greenery; the house itself and its interiors are not demonstrated.
- This is an auction property, so legal access, occupancy, debts, and purchase conditions require careful verification.
- The listing reports zero bathrooms despite calling the villa habitable, which is a significant livability concern.
- The compound includes an artisan building, open sheds, and agricultural land, adding possible maintenance and planning complexity.
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 61/100San Damiano d'Asti sits in the Roero hill country, with cultivated ridges and small valleys between the Tanaro plain and the Langhe. The Tanaro river corridor lies nearby to the west. Asti is the nearest larger town, with rail connections, services and a substantial historic centre. Alba is also close enough for regular use and is the main town of the wine area south of the Tanaro. This part of Piemonte is known for vineyards, hazelnuts and wine production.
