The €59,000 asking price is only €236/m², but this large stone rustico is described as a restoration project and has just one bathroom; estimated total costs reach about €959/m² after renovation, well above comparable local stock. The listing does not say whether it is currently habitable or provide its construction and energy details.
More on the house and the area
A remarkably atmospheric Ligurian stone house in a hillside borgo, with dramatic mountain views, traditional masonry, terraces, and an authentic old-home character. The interiors are basic and heavily dated but furnished and apparently usable, not an empty shell; substantial modernization and likely roof/exterior work would be needed.
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, €900/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€50,000 – €88,000
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.
- Very dated interiors with worn floors, fixtures, and finishes.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a very large 250 sqm house.
- Roof terraces and exterior surfaces appear weathered and may require repairs.
- Access is via steep village steps rather than direct car access.
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 63/100The cluster is in the lower inland of western Liguria, on olive-covered hills above the Neva valley. The Ligurian Alps rise inland, with the first mountain relief beginning within this radius. The Neva runs through the valley below, and the Ligurian coast around Albenga is the nearest sea frontage. Albenga is the nearest town of size, with a full service centre and a walled historic core. This part of western Liguria is known for olive cultivation and small terraced valleys between the coast and the Alps.
