What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €450/m², the €90,000 asking price is already above the local €345/m² reference, and the partly renovated, partly unfinished condition could bring the effective cost to roughly €950/m². The home has useful features including heating, garage, fireplace and services nearby, but the listing does not specify how much of the 200 m² requires renovation.
More on the house and the area
A generous, sunny Piedmont townhouse with a well-kept private garden, balcony, traditional shutters, original woodwork, and a charming brick-and-stone fireplace. The habitable section appears solid and genuinely usable, with radiators, a modern condensing boiler, and two bathrooms, but the remaining part still needs renovation. At 200 sqm for €90,000, it offers strong space-for-money appeal, though it lacks a dramatic view or exceptional architectural setting.
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.
Our read of the photos, €500/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€23,000 – €39,000
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 property is only partly renovated, with a substantial portion still needing work.
- Energy class G suggests high running costs and older insulation.
- The kitchen and some unfinished areas are not clearly shown as fully equipped.
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 61/100This is the low hill country of the Monferrato on the right bank of the Po, with mixed farmland, woods and scattered villages. The Po runs just below Monteu da Po, and the area also includes the Rocca di Verrua above the river at Verrua Savoia. The nearest larger town is Chivasso, which has rail links, supermarkets and everyday services. Turin is farther west and matters for jobs and higher-order services, but it is outside the immediate landscape. The area is known for wine hills and farming, and Monteu da Po is linked to the Roman site of Industria nearby.
