Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Listing price €18,356 (~€55/m2) is far below the regional baseline of €350/m2, but this is a judicial auction (legal/occupancy risks) and the ad says the photos are not the real images while the property's condition is unspecified, so proceed with caution.
More on the house and the area
Photos show clean, recently renovated bathrooms and a neat, move-in‑ready bedroom floor — a practical, simple home rather than a romantic Italian cottage. The price is a strong bargain, but the property lacks historic character, private land or views and the images may not be of the real unit, so verify details before you dream.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€67,000 – €118,000
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.
- Listing notes the pictures are indicative and may not show the actual unit.
- No clear outdoor space, view or garden shown in the photos.
- Listing metadata is inconsistent (baths = 0) — verify actual layout and services.
- Likely part of a larger building — check common-area condition and any condominium fees.
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 67/100This is Monferrato hill country, with vineyard slopes, mixed farmland and small ridgelines around the village. The nearest river landscape of note is the Tanaro valley, a few kilometres away. Asti is the nearest larger town, with full services, rail connections and a substantial historic centre. This part of Monferrato is known for wine, especially Barbera and other Astigiano and Monferrato denominations. Parts of the wider Monferrato wine landscape in the Asti area have UNESCO recognition as the Vineyard Landscape of Piedmont: Langhe-Roero and Monferrato.
