See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction listing ('Data di asta', 'Offerta minima'), which is a veto red flag for this catalog. It also needs major restoration ('stato di manutenzione è pessimo'), implying about €1,100/m² renovation on top of the €58,500 price.
More on the house and the area
The house has some presence: a tall early-20th-century style facade, generous scale, and a bit of period character from the outside. But this is not presented as a ready home — the listing itself says the condition is very poor and needs major renovation, so the dream factor is held back by real usability concerns. At the price, the size is striking, but based on the evidence this feels more like a substantial project than an immediately lovable home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€143,000 – €211,000
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.

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 72/100The Biellese Prealps rise immediately north of Candelo, with the Serra morainica d'Ivrea running nearby as a long glacial ridge across the landscape. The Cervo and Elvo valleys are the mountain valleys closest to daily life here, and the Oasi Zegna area in the upper Biellese is the main named mountain landscape in the province. Biella is the nearest town of size and has the province’s main services and historic centre. Candelo is known for the Ricetto di Candelo, a preserved medieval fortified village, and it is listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia.
