What it really costs

Livable, but something basic is worn out

See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing ('Data di asta', 'Offerta minima', 'Procedura'), which is an automatic veto for this catalog. Even though the stated price is €554/m² and the home sounds habitable, auction risk overrides the pricing signal.
More on the house and the area
This is a functional little townhouse rather than a dream-home find. The photos show a real, usable house with bathroom, heating and finished interiors, but the look is plain and dated, with no standout character, views or outdoor appeal. At €36k it feels cheap for a habitable home, yet the wow factor is low.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
- Very modest aesthetics and no meaningful view or special setting.
- Interiors look habitable but dated and basic, likely needing cosmetic updating.
- Small two-room layout limits long-term livability.
- Auction sale adds procedural/legal complexity.
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 56/100Cercenasco sits on the plain between Pinerolo and Turin, at the foot of the Cottian Alps. The Chisone valley begins a short distance west around Pinerolo, with the first Alpine relief already visible within this radius. Pinerolo is the nearest town of size, with a substantial historic centre, shops, schools, hospital and rail links toward Turin. This part of the plain is known for mixed agriculture and for the line where the Torinese plain meets the Alpine foothills.
