At €79,000 (€263/m²), the asking price is below the local €333/m² benchmark, but an estimated €60,000 renovation allowance brings the effective cost to about €463/m². The listing presents a substantial 300 m² country house with 10,000 m² of land, but its condition and construction year are not stated, while energy class G suggests modernization may be needed.
More on the house and the area
A substantial, traditional Piemonte country house with charming shutters, wrought-iron balconies, a private courtyard, garden and a genuinely excellent valley-and-river panorama. The home appears solid, roofed and lived-in, with a working kitchen, bathrooms, heating and generous rooms, though the decor and some exterior elements are dated rather than turnkey.
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€20,000 – €34,000
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 fully usable but noticeably dated, especially the kitchen and bathrooms.
- Exterior ironwork, shutters, paving and some render show weathering and would benefit from maintenance.
- The large private landholding and full structural/utility condition should be verified in person.
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.
