At €15,000 for 150 sqm, the ask is just €100/sqm, but with a full renovation estimate of about €800/sqm the effective cost is roughly €900/sqm. That is well above the low-stock baseline of €350/sqm for Piemonte townhouses, but the description gives useful positives: very solid walls and a recently revised roof with no infiltrations, which makes it a plausible renovation project rather than a ruin.
More on the house and the area
This is a very cheap, solid village townhouse with a recently revised roof, so it looks more like a serious renovation project than a ruin. The exterior is plain and tired, with no visible view or standout character, so the dream factor is limited. As a future home it has usable potential, but right now it is not a beautiful move-in property.
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€30,000 – €53,000
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.

- Completely to be renovated internally
- Only exterior photos, so interior livability is unproven
- No evident view, garden, or outdoor wow factor
- Likely a basic village house rather than a character property
