Price €67,000 plus an estimated €200/m² renovation (€24,800) gives an effective cost of ~€91,800 (~€740/m²), far above the regional baseline of €260/m²; the property has been on market 360 days, indicating weak demand.
More on the house and the area
A charming early‑20th‑century Monferrato farmhouse with original character (fireplace, vaulted/arched ceilings), a gated garden and pleasant hill views. The interior is habitable and nicely kept but the kitchen and finishes are a bit dated — an affordable, move‑in/refreshable home with real curb appeal.
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€8,000 – €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.
- Only one bathroom (1.0)
- Kitchen and some finishes are dated — light updating likely
- Small village location — limited services/amenities nearby
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 68/100This is hill country of the Monferrato, with cultivated ridges, small woods and scattered villages. The Po is north of the area beyond the nearest hills, but within the immediate surroundings the landscape is inland agricultural hills rather than a riverfront. Casale Monferrato is the nearest larger town, with services, rail links and a substantial historic centre. Moncalvo is nearby and is listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia. The area is known for vineyards, mixed farming and the wider Monferrato wine landscape.
