See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is being sold at judicial auction (procedure 106438/2023, auction date 15/12/2026), which carries legal/post‑sale risks and extra costs. The lot is large—1,561 m2 at 88,605 € (~57 €/m2) well below the regional median of 189 €/m2, but auction status makes it a high‑risk buy despite the apparent discount.
More on the house and the area
A substantial historic palazzo arranged around a pleasant internal courtyard with a chapel and vaulted rooms — real character and intact systems (heating, elevator) make it immediately usable. The property is clearly a bargain for its size and age but currently reads as an institutional care home, so conversion and ongoing maintenance are the main practical hurdles.
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€103,000 – €174,000
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.
- Former RSA with institutional layout — will require conversion for normal residential use (repartitioning, kitchens, living spaces).
- Large footprint — significant ongoing maintenance and renovation costs despite being technically habitable.
- Possible planning / heritage or zoning constraints to check given age and previous use.
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 67/100The cluster is in the Langhe, with wooded ridges and vineyard hills around the Bormida valley. The Bormida di Millesimo runs through Cortemilia. This is the Alta Langa zone, known for hazelnuts, mixed woodland and hill agriculture rather than the dense wine landscape of the lower Langhe. Alba is the nearest larger town, with full services and rail links. Parts of the wider Langhe-Roero and Monferrato vineyard landscape are UNESCO-listed, but the core listed vineyard areas are not centered on Cortemilia itself.
