- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Asking €9,281 for 125 m² but the property is in very poor state (partial roof collapse, long abandonment, asbestos) and is a judicial auction. I estimate renovation at €1,100/m² (≈€137,500), giving an effective ≈€1,174/m² vs the regional median of €261/m², so this auction is flagged as a trap.
More on the house and the area
Price is extremely low but this is a derelict farmhouse/project: partial roof collapse, abandoned stables/fienili and extensive renovation (and asbestos removal) required. The supplied photos are stock/indicative and do not represent the real condition.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€50,000 – €73,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Listed photos are indicative only and do NOT show the real farmhouse.
- Property described as abandoned with partial roof collapse and most windows non-recoverable (major structural work needed).
- Portico has asbestos covering that must be removed; likely no usable utilities or sanitary fittings (baths listed as 0).
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 42/100This cluster sits in the built-up area of Alessandria, in the flat alluvial plain where the Tanaro and Bormida rivers meet. The nearest larger landscape is the Monferrato hill country, which begins outside the city and is known for vineyards and wine villages, but it is not inside the immediate urban setting. Alessandria is a provincial capital with rail links, services, and a substantial urban fabric. The wider area is known for mixed agriculture and river plain country.
