Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The house is described as being in very good condition, with new PVC windows, a revised roof and renovated facade, so only limited work appears necessary. However, €44,000 equals €800/m², well above the local €333/m² reference; adding an estimated €150/m² for finishing and heating improvements gives an effective cost of about €950/m².
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, usable small home rather than a ruin: the main rooms are finished, furnished, and appear in good everyday condition, with newer PVC windows, air conditioning, and a private courtyard. Its pink façade, balcony, tiled interiors, and compact spiral stair give it modest Italian character, but there are no exceptional views, landscape, or standout historic features.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €150/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€3,000 – €5,000
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.
- The house is compact and realistically suited to no more than two people.
- Heating is currently via wood or pellet stove; gas is nearby but not connected.
- The large attic and outbuildings appear useful but currently unfinished, cluttered, and in need of work.
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 38/100Leinì sits on the north side of the Turin plain, with the first Western Alps visible to the west and north-west, but the immediate area within 15 km is mainly flat farmland, roads, warehouses and outer-suburban settlement. The Stura di Lanzo runs nearby. Turin is the nearest major city, with the full range of services, rail links, museums and major monuments. The area is known more for logistics and the metropolitan fringe of Turin than for a distinct landscape or protected natural setting.
