At €28,000 (€373/m²), the asking price looks low, but estimated renovation brings the effective cost to about €80,500, or €1,073/m²—far above comparable local stock around €345/m². Garage, balcony and autonomous heating help, but the required work makes this a weak renovation deal.
More on the house and the area
This is a charming old Piemonte townhouse with traditional shutters, a balcony, exposed stonework, and a tiled roof, plus a small overgrown garden area and hillside surroundings. It appears to be a solid, roofed house rather than a ruin, but the interiors are unfinished and cluttered, so it is a renovation project rather than a move-in home.
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.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€15,000 – €27,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Substantial renovation is needed, including clearing the overgrown grounds and updating the interiors.
- The roof and exterior structure look aged; scaffolding suggests ongoing or required work.
- The gallery does not prove the condition of utilities, bathroom, kitchen, or heating systems.

The area around
Location score 67/100The cluster sits on the lower slopes at the mouth of Val di Susa, with the Graian Alps immediately to the north and west. The Dora Riparia valley is nearby, and the area is tied to the western Torinese foothills rather than to a single marked natural site. The nearest large town is Turin, which provides the full range of services, rail connections and airport access. The Sacra di San Michele stands on Monte Pirchiriano within the wider 15 km area and is the main historic landmark of these foothills. This part of the province is known for its prealpine woods, moraine hills and the transition from the Turin plain to the Alpine valleys.
