What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €152/m², the €52,000 asking price is far below the Piemonte baseline of €399/m², and the property includes a garden plus 2,470 m² of potentially valuable building land. However, condition is unspecified, the 341 m² likely includes a rustic outbuilding, and there is only one bathroom, so renovation and usability risk materially reduce the apparent discount.
More on the house and the area
This is a highly atmospheric Piedmontese farmhouse with traditional brick arcades, tiled roofs, shutters, a large private garden and additional open land. The main residence is clearly a real, functioning home with kitchen, bathroom, heating and furnished rooms, but the interiors are dated and the attached farm buildings look more like renovation/storage spaces than finished living areas. At €52,000 for the scale and land, it has strong dream-home potential for someone willing to modernize it.
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.
Our read of the photos, €500/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€39,000 – €67,000
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 main house appears usable but very dated, with significant cosmetic modernization needed.
- Large agricultural/rustic outbuildings show storage clutter and may require substantial repair.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a very large 341 m² property; utilities and systems should be verified.
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 43/100This is the Tanaro plain at the confluence with the Bormida, with flat farmland, riverbanks and low hills beginning south and west toward the Monferrato and Alto Monferrato. Alessandria is a provincial capital with full services, rail links and a substantial historic centre including the Cittadella fort. Within about 15 km the setting is mainly settled plain and infrastructure rather than a distinct scenic landscape.
