What it really costs

Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitable- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly an asta immobiliare (judicial auction), which is a veto regardless of the €201/m² asking price versus the €385/m² Liguria baseline. The property is described as habitable, but auction procedures and tribunal documentation create material purchase and possession risks.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely appealing Ligurian countryside property with wooded mountain views, a large garden and roughly 2.5 hectares of agricultural land, plus barns and a woodshed. The main house appears roofed and usable, with a working-looking kitchen, tiled floors and attractive exposed timber beams, though it is dated rather than turnkey. At around €30,500, the scale of the land and buildings creates striking bargain appeal, subject to the auction and missing-bathroom details being confirmed.
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 purchase requires careful review of the court documents and occupancy/legal status.
- The interiors are habitable but distinctly dated and likely need modernization.
- The listing records zero bathrooms, so bathroom provision and utilities must be verified.
- Rural access is narrow and the property includes extensive land and agricultural outbuildings to maintain.
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.
