Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €69,000 for 300 m², the headline price is €230/m², but allowing roughly €450/m² for the raw attic, ancillary structures and likely updating brings the effective cost to about €680/m² versus a €336/m² local benchmark. The description shows a substantial dwelling, yet it does not clarify the condition or how much of the stated area is genuinely habitable.
More on the house and the area
A large, characterful village house with a private garden, mature trees, generous rooms, original-style terrazzo floors and plenty of practical outbuildings. It appears genuinely livable today, with kitchen, bathrooms, heating and furnished bedrooms, but the interiors are old-fashioned and parts of the house need real updating rather than just cosmetic decoration. The low price for the size gives it strong potential, though it is more of a spacious renovation-friendly home than a polished Italian dream house.
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, €450/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€35,000 – €59,000
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 distinctly dated, with visible wall wear and at least one room needing substantial renovation.
- The attic is unfinished/raw, and the energy rating is F.
- The 300 sqm footprint includes storage, sheds, a barn and garage, so not all space is finished living area.
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 33/100This is the eastern Piedmont plain between the Dora Baltea and the Po basin, with a landscape dominated by rice fields, irrigation canals and straight rural roads. The nearest substantial town is Vercelli, which has services, rail connections and a historic centre with major churches and civic buildings. Ivrea and the first Alpine valleys are farther away and do not define the immediate 15 km surroundings. The area is known for rice cultivation in the vercellese plain.
