Listing price €95,000 + estimated renovation €26,800 (≈€200/m2) gives an effective €121,800, or ≈€909/m2 versus the regional baseline €312/m2, so this is priced well above typical Piemonte offers. Positives: habitable condition, 134 m2, large 4,559 m2 plot, garage/cellar and 14 photos in the Langhe, but the high effective €/m2 makes it an overpriced pick.
More on the house and the area
A solid, habitable 1970s villa in the Langhe with a large 4,559 m² plot, garage/cellar and pleasant hillside views. Interiors are liveable but dated; the attic is unfinished and some cosmetic work would make this a very comfortable country home at a strong price.
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€9,000 – €15,000
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.
- Interior is dated and will need cosmetic updating (kitchen, floors, finishes).
- Top floor/attic is unfinished and currently used for storage — renovation required to use as living space.
- House sits directly on a roadside curve, so expect limited front privacy and some traffic noise.
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 72/100The cluster is in the Langhe hills, with ridged vineyard and hazelnut country and wooded slopes around the upper Belbo valley. The Alta Langa landscape is the main fact here, and Bossolasco is known as one of the hill villages of this part of the Langhe. The Tanaro valley lies nearby, and the Ligurian Alps are farther south on clear days but not within the immediate landscape. Alba is the nearest substantial town in daily use, with services, shops and rail connections. This wider area is known for wine, hazelnuts and white truffles, and the Vineyard Landscape of Langhe-Roero and Monferrato UNESCO site is in the wider Langhe area, though the core protected zones are not centered on Bossolasco itself.
