At €69,000 for 259 sqm, the asking price is just €266/sqm, but with a likely habitable/updated-home allowance of about €200/sqm the effective cost is ~€466/sqm, which is above the local cheap-stock baseline of €352/sqm. Still, 35 photos, 4 beds/2 baths, garage/cellar, and a very large livable house in Piemonte make it a solid value despite the description sounding a bit more like habitable than truly renovated.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable home with generous space, two bathrooms, a fitted kitchen and renovated interiors, not a shell. The brick vaulted ceilings add genuine character, and the big terrace with open green views gives it real lifestyle appeal. It is not a glamorous showpiece from the street, but at €69k for 259 sqm it has strong dream-to-price value.
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€17,000 – €29,000
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.
- Exterior is plain rather than especially beautiful
- Interiors are livable but somewhat dark and basic in finish
- Terrace/pool area feels practical more than polished
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.
