See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly a judicial auction ("in asta", offerta minima €15,300), which is an automatic veto for this catalog. Even ignoring that, only part of the 140 sqm is true living space and several ancillary areas are unfinished, so the low €109/sqm is not a clean bargain signal.
More on the house and the area
This is a very cheap, usable rural house rather than a dreamy Italian beauty. The ground-floor living area appears habitable, but much of the rest is rough utility space and an unfinished attic, so the overall condition and charm stay modest. The private courtyard and open-countryside setting help a little, and the price is undeniably low.
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, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€28,000 – €49,000
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.
- Part of the building is only ancillary/storage space and the attic is unfinished with no proper floor.
- Interiors look basic and dim rather than attractive, with some rough and worn areas.
- Access is via a right of way over another property.
- Listing data appears inconsistent: photos/text suggest a bathroom, but facts show 0 baths.
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 39/100This is the flat agricultural plain between Turin and Pinerolo, in the Po basin at the foot of the Cottian Alps, which are visible to the west but outside the immediate landscape. The Chisone valley begins around Pinerolo, the nearest larger town, which provides the usual services, schools, hospital and rail links toward Turin. The area is known for farming and horse breeding on the plain.
