Not before the basics are done
In the listingHabitableThe photographs say otherwise, and we go by the photographs.
- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction (Tribunale Asti) offered at €22,500 for 266 m²; estimated renovation €200/m² gives an effective cost of ~€75,700 (~€285/m²), slightly above the Piemonte median €261/m². Auction status and the listing's note that photos are not the real images add legal and information risk, so the score is low.
More on the house and the area
The interiors shown are modern, stylish and clearly move-in ready, so this could be a very attractive, low-cost home if the photos match the real unit. However the ad warns images are indicative and the listing is an auction — confirm actual photos, the condition of the farmhouse and the land before bidding.
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€17,000 – €30,000
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 labeled as indicative and may not be the actual images of this farmhouse — verify real photos and floorplans.
- This is an auction listing (procedural/legal complexities) — expect extra costs and checks before purchase.
- No exterior/land photos or views shown here, despite the description mentioning terrenos in front of the building — outdoor space and access need confirmation.
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.
