Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €609/m², the asking price is well above the local €335/m² benchmark; allowing roughly €200/m² for its partially renovated condition brings the effective cost to about €809/m². The garden, garage, independent entrance and 2023 improvements add value, but not enough to justify the substantial premium.
More on the house and the area
A solid, cheerful semi-detached village home with a private planted courtyard, balcony awnings, garage, and enough space for comfortable everyday living. The interiors appear clean, furnished, and partly renovated in 2023, with a modern kitchen, functioning bathrooms, heating, and air conditioning. Its strongest appeal is the unusually complete, move-in-ready package at €67,000 rather than dramatic scenery or standout architecture.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high heating costs.
- The home is immediately usable but interiors and bathrooms are practical rather than especially stylish.
- No notable landscape view or distinctive historic architectural feature is visible.
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 area sits in the eastern Biella foothills, with the Biellese Prealps closing the northern horizon and lower wooded and farmed hills around the town. The Cervo valley and the mountain side of the province begin within a short drive to the north, while the plain opens south toward the rice country of the Vercelli-Novara lowlands. Biella is the nearest town of size, with the province’s main services, railway station and historic upper town of Biella Piazzo. The Santuario di Oropa and the Oasi Zegna mountain road and high pastures are in the Biella mountains but beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known above all for the long textile tradition of the Biellese.
