Estimating modest work at €200/m² yields an effective total of €195,600 (≈€409/m²) for the 478 m² building, well above the regional median of €189/m²; the whole-palazzina layout is attractive for investors but the price is substantially higher than local norms.
More on the house and the area
A solid, habitable four‑apartment palazzo with balconies, garden, garages and open panoramic views over the rolling Asti hills — a genuinely liveable building right away. The interiors are serviceable but dated, so it’s best seen as a great-value investment or a family residence that will benefit from cosmetic refurbishment and window/heating modernisation.
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€32,000 – €53,000
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.
- Dated 1970s finishes and many single‑glazed wooden windows—cosmetic updating and window replacement recommended
- Centralised heating and multiple apartments mean condominium management/expenses to consider
- Not a historic/character building—modern brick palazzo style
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 the Monferrato hill country, with low ridges, vineyards, arable fields and small woods around the village. The area lies close to the Val Rilate and the wider Tanaro basin landscape. Asti is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre, rail connections and services. The wider area is known for wine, especially Barbera and other Monferrato denominations, and for mixed vineyard-and-farm countryside typical of the Astigiano.
