At €95,000 for 147 m², the asking price is €646/m²; allowing about €29,400 for habitable-condition work puts the effective cost near €846/m², well above the local €345/m² reference. The garage, garden, terrace, balcony and cellar add appeal, but the price premium is substantial.
More on the house and the area
A spacious, genuinely usable 147 sqm townhouse with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a fitted kitchen, heating, and well-maintained traditional furnishings. The wood-clad ceilings, paneling, ornate stair rail, and classic furniture add character, but there are no proven scenic views or standout exterior spaces, and the overall style is more dated than dream-home striking.
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€10,000 – €16,000
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 habitable but noticeably dated, especially the kitchen, bathrooms, wood paneling, and flooring.
- The open-tread staircase may be inconvenient or unsafe for some residents.
- The advertised garden, terrace, balcony, garage, and cellar are not shown in the gallery.
- Energy class and likely future efficiency costs are unknown.
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 48/100The area sits on the western edge of the Ticino valley, with the Ticino River and the Parco Naturale Valle del Ticino / Parco del Ticino within reach east of Cameri. This is lowland between Novara and the Lombard plain, with rice fields, irrigation canals and scattered woodland typical of the Novara plain. Novara is the nearest town of size and has a substantial historic centre and services. Milan Malpensa airport is nearby on the other side of the Ticino, but it is a transport fact rather than a landscape feature. The area is known for rice cultivation in the Pianura Novarese.
