What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €79,000 for 110 sqm, the ask is €718/sqm; with a habitable-condition allowance of about €200/sqm, the effective cost is roughly €918/sqm. That is far above this stock baseline of €352/sqm in Piemonte townhouses, so despite decent features and 21 photos, it looks expensive for the catalog.
More on the house and the area
This feels like a real, comfortable home rather than a project: fully furnished, habitable, with a usable kitchen, bathroom, heating and decent room sizes. The wow comes from the warm vaulted living room, private garden and very low price per sqm, but the setting is ordinary and the finishes are more practical than dream-house beautiful.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Residential roadside setting with no notable view
- Interiors are dated and decorative style is quite personal
- Outdoor area is pleasant but modest rather than idyllic
- Only one bathroom for 110 sqm
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 77/100The Biellese Prealps rise immediately north of Biella, with Monte Mucrone and the Oropa basin within about 10 km. The Oropa stream valley runs into the town, and the area sits between the first Alpine slopes and the edge of the rice plain toward Vercelli. The Sacro Monte di Oropa and the Sanctuary of Oropa, a UNESCO World Heritage site, are within this radius above the town. The nearest ski area is Oropa, with small lifts about 15 minutes' drive from Biella. Biella itself is the main town of the area, with a historic upper town at Biella Piazzo and the services of a provincial capital. The area is known for the wool textile industry and for the Oropa pilgrimage route.
