What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitable- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Judicial auction (asta giudiziaria) is an explicit veto under the scoring rules. The €152/m² asking price is far below the Piemonte townhouse baseline of €355/m², but the property is only described as habitable and includes a raw-roof attic, so estimated renovation is about €700/m².
More on the house and the area
A traditional Piedmontese townhouse with shutters, a tiled roof, courtyard, outbuildings, and a generous overgrown plot gives it genuine rural-home potential. It appears to be a complete, roofed house rather than a ruin, but the neglected grounds, aged exterior, and lack of interior photos keep it firmly in the renovation-needed category.
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, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€36,000 – €63,000
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 exterior grounds are heavily overgrown and will need clearing and maintenance.
- The house appears roofed and structurally substantial, but the gallery provides no interior photos to verify actual habitability.
- Judicial-auction purchase involves additional legal, access, and occupancy checks.
- The rear accessory buildings and roof edges show visible age and possible maintenance needs.
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 68/100This is in the hills of the Monferrato, with a landscape of vineyards, mixed farmland and small wooded ridges. The Po lies to the north within this part of Piemonte, and the nearest larger towns for everyday services are Casale Monferrato and Asti. The wider area is known for wine production, especially Barbera and other Monferrato denominations, and for a pattern of small hilltop villages and farmsteads.
