What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Farmhouse (rustico) needs renovation with 0 baths and no building year or energy class, indicating it is not currently habitable. At €250/m2 it sits just below the local median of €264/m2, so no real bargain versus baseline (n=1964 is solid). 276 m2 with private garden and garage is appealing, but full renovation of a rustic on two levels typically runs ~€800/m2, meaning total investment could reach ~€290k, roughly local market level. Fresh listing (2 days). Reasonable but not a standout deal; renovation risk keeps it at fair.
More on the house and the area
Classic Piedmontese cascina with brick-arched loggia, terracotta roof, decorative chimney and characterful vaulted brick ceilings. The interiors show authentic rustic elements (fireplace, herringbone brick floors, exposed beams) but are entirely stripped and derelict. Exterior charm is genuine but weathered and peeling. Large 276sqm plus outbuildings and private garden at €250/sqm makes it a real bargain for a renovation project. Photos are ordinary listing shots of a rough state; appeal is potential-driven, not turnkey wow.
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, €800/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€55,000 – €97,000
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.

The area around
Location score 38/100This is the flat southern Piedmont plain between Turin and the first Alpine foothills. The Po plain landscape dominates within the immediate area, with fields, drainage canals and small roads between compact towns. The nearest larger town is Carmagnola, which has a substantial historic centre, rail links and everyday services; farther out, Turin is the main city for higher-level services and work. This part of the province is known for mixed agriculture and livestock farming.
