This is a judicial auction listing, which brings legal complexity and extra costs. At €39,000 plus estimated €700/m² renovation (~€142,800) the effective price is ~€182,000 (~€891/m²), well above the regional median of €350/m².
More on the house and the area
Very spacious, bright interiors and a dramatic attic/loft space make this feel like a dream conversion-ready home, with attractive modern finishes inside. However the building exterior and common areas are in poor repair and the sale is by auction, so expect renovation, paperwork and possible extra costs before move-in.
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€40,000 – €72,000
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.

- Exterior facade and common courtyard show peeling plaster and need repair
- Interior looks largely finished but some spaces (and building systems) likely need renovation or updating
- Listing notes say images are indicative and may not represent the real unit
- Property is an auction listing — legal/possession complexities are possible
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 49/100The cluster lies in the plain between the Po and Pellice river systems, with the Cottian Alps visible to the west on clear days but outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The Po runs near Villafranca Piemonte and shapes the local setting as flat agricultural land with irrigation channels, poplar groves and fields. Saluzzo is the nearest town of size nearby, with a substantial historic centre and services. This part of the plain is known for farming, especially fruit and mixed agriculture.
