This is an auction listing (ASTA IMMOBILIARE) and the property is described as "proprietà superficiaria", a limited surface right that requires tribunal documentation and legal review, making it risky for a straightforward purchase. The price is €52,017 (€179/m²) versus a regional baseline of €312/m², so while the nominal price is low the auction and ownership type make it unsuitable without specialist legal advice.
More on the house and the area
Large, habitable 290 m² apartment with intact parquet, working kitchen and bathrooms but very dated 1980s styling. Good value-as-auction opportunity for someone who wants roomy city living in Alessandria, but it lacks historic charm, views or a photogenic setting.
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€19,000 – €32,000
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.
- Sold at auction — verify legal/title and additional costs with a specialist
- Dated 1980s interiors that will need updating (cosmetic works likely)
- Urban 1980s apartment block with no scenic views or private garden
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 34/100This is the flat Tanaro plain around Alessandria, with intensive farmland, roads, rail lines and scattered industrial areas. The Tanaro runs through the city and the Bormida joins it nearby. Alessandria is the nearest town of size and has the full services of a provincial capital, a substantial historic centre and a rail junction. The Monferrato hills begin outside the plain but they are not the immediate landscape here. As the cluster is inside the built-up area of a city above 50,000 residents, the urban cap applies.
