What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €600/m², the asking price is slightly below Turin’s €646/m² benchmark, but allowing about €200/m² for a habitable property brings the effective cost to roughly €800/m². The listing is brief and does not state the bathroom count or energy class, while the balcony and independent heating are positives.
More on the house and the area
This is a practical 96 sqm urban apartment near the metro, with two bedrooms, a balcony, heating and a cellar. The building exterior is tired and lacks distinctive character, views, garden or other standout features; it appears habitable rather than dream-home beautiful.
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€6,000 – €11,000
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.
- Exterior shows peeling plaster and patch repairs, suggesting deferred maintenance.
- No interior photos are provided, so the actual finish and livability cannot be verified.
- This is a judicial-auction/special-situation listing; legal status, occupancy and purchase process require careful checking.
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 55/100The cluster is inside the built-up area of Turin, so the lived surroundings are urban streets and dense city fabric rather than a rural landscape. The Po runs through the city, with the Collina di Torino immediately to the east. Turin is the nearest major centre and has the full services, monuments, universities, museums and transport of a large regional capital. The Alps are visible west and north of the city, but they are outside the immediate 15 km landscape of most urban districts.
