What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €95,000 asking price is already €990/m²; allowing roughly €200/m² for a seemingly habitable home brings the effective cost to about €1,190/m², versus €338/m² for comparable local stock. The central-historic location, terrace, independent heating and two bathrooms add appeal, but do not justify the very large premium; the listing does not state the condition, construction year or energy class.
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€6,000 – €11,000
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.
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 43/100The area sits on the Canavese plain at the edge of the lower Po basin, with the Alps visible to the north and west and the first Canavese hills and morainic country farther toward Ivrea. The Malone stream runs through the commune, and the Orco valley and the Stura di Lanzo are nearby valley systems in the wider surroundings. Turin is the nearest large city and provides the full range of services, rail links and major cultural institutions. The zone is known for mixed agriculture, logistics and industry along the Turin plain rather than for a singular landscape feature.
