- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is being sold at judicial auction (Tribunale Vercelli), which carries court‑sale risks and procedures. Listed price €20,840 for 128 m² (habitable) with estimated renovation €200/m² → effective ≈€362/m² vs regional median €350/m², but auction status makes it a legal/process-heavy purchase.
More on the house and the area
Bright, modern-looking interiors in the photos feel move-in ready and the price is a strong bargain for 128 m². However the images may not be of the actual townhouse and it’s an auction listing, so verify the true condition, bathroom count and legal status before dreaming of living here.
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 – €14,000
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.
- Photos in the ad are stated to be indicative and may not show the real property — verify actual photos/planimetry.
- Property is offered at auction (tribunale) — expect legal/administrative process and checks before purchase.
- Listing data shows 0 bathrooms and a non-practicable attic — confirm number of bathrooms, utilities and usable space on site.
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 sits in the Monferrato hills, with vine-covered ridges and rounded farmed slopes within the local landscape. The Po plain begins not far to the north, but within 15 km the setting is mainly hill country rather than flat plain. Casale Monferrato is the nearest town of size, with services, a rail station, and a substantial historic centre. This is wine country, especially Barbera and Grignolino, with scattered hamlets, farmhouses, and small hilltop villages across the surrounding ridges. Parts of Monferrato are included in the UNESCO vineyard landscape listing of Langhe-Roero and Monferrato, and Vignale Monferrato lies in that wider wine-growing landscape.
