A habitable 150 m² townhouse with garden, garage, cellar and heating has an estimated all-in cost of about €129,000, or €860/m² after light updating. That is substantially above the €345/m² local comparison level, although the practical features and 37 photos support a credible, usable home.
More on the house and the area
A spacious, genuinely usable townhouse with a private garden, broad balconies, and an attractive open view toward the Piedmontese hills and mountains. The vaulted ceilings, terrazzo floors, shutters, and wood-burning stove add real character, while the home appears solid and functional rather than a renovation shell. Its main weakness is dated decoration and sanitary/kitchen fittings, but at 150 sqm with garage and land, it has strong dream-home potential.
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 – €17,000
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 habitable but distinctly dated, with an apparent kitchen needing fitting or modernization.
- Bathrooms, finishes, balconies, and exterior areas will likely need refreshing.
- Energy performance and running costs are not provided.
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 61/100The cluster lies at the mouth of the Val Gallenca, with the first slopes of the Canavese and Graian Alps immediately above the town. The Gallenca stream runs down through the valley and the Orco valley opens a short distance to the north-west. Gran Paradiso National Park is not within the 15 km radius, but the alpine valleys of the Canavese begin very close by. The nearest larger centre is Rivarolo Canavese, which has rail links, shops and everyday services; Cuorgnè is also nearby as a local service town. The area is known in Piemonte for the Canavese foothill belt, with pre-alpine villages, woods and short valleys rising from the plain.
