What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €422/m² before works, this farmhouse is already well above comparable local stock at about €262/m². Because the listing does not state the condition, a substantial renovation allowance is prudent, bringing the effective cost near €1,122/m² despite the central location, garden and courtyard.
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€47,000 – €83,000
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.
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 61/100The area sits on the eastern edge of the Canavese and Vercelli plain, with low morainic hills around the Serra d'Ivrea not far to the north. Lake Viverone is within about 10 km. The nearest larger town is Ivrea, which has services, a railway station and an industrial and historic centre; Vercelli is the other main reference town on the plain. The area is known for rice country on the plain and for the vineyard-and-lake landscape around Viverone and the morainic amphitheatre of Ivrea. Ivrea and the 19th-century Olivetti industrial city are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but the town itself is just beyond the 15 km landscape radius.
