Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The house is offered at €59,000 (€492/m²), but allowing about €200/m² for its unspecified interior condition gives an effective cost near €83,000 (€692/m²), well above the local benchmark of €335/m². The new roof, new boiler, two independent living units, parking and walkable services add value, but the listing does not state the overall interior condition.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, usable two-apartment home with charming vaulted ceilings, old shutters, balconies, and a strong village-house character. The interiors are fully fitted and habitable, while the recently renewed roof and new condensing boiler are major practical positives, but the décor and finishes are dated and the setting is urban rather than picturesque. At €59,000 for 120 sqm and two independent living levels, it has clear bargain appeal for a buyer wanting flexibility rather than a postcard setting.
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 – €13,000
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.
- Interiors are very dated and cluttered, with likely cosmetic modernization needed.
- The home fronts a fairly busy ordinary town street rather than offering a scenic view or private garden.
- The two-level layout is connected by an external staircase, which may limit convenience and privacy between the apartments.
- Shared courtyard and parking arrangements should be verified before purchase.
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 58/100The cluster is on the Canavese plain at the foot of the Graian Alps, with the first alpine valleys beginning within about 15 km to the north and west. The Orco and Malone watercourses run through the Canavese area, and the landscape around Rivarolo is mainly fields, small settlements and views toward the mountains. The nearest larger centre is Ivrea, which has a substantial historic core and services; Turin is the main city for higher-level rail, hospitals and airport but lies beyond the immediate landscape. The area is known for the historic Canavese zone of small towns, castles and prealpine valleys.
