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 €89,000 for 90 sqm, the ask is €989/sqm; assuming habitable condition adds about €200/sqm, for an effective €1,189/sqm. That is far above this catalog baseline of €353/sqm for Piemonte townhouses, so despite the 2010 renovation and good presentation, it looks expensive relative to comparable sub-€100k stock.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable mountain-town home with a big terrace, private garden and lovely green hillside views. The vaulted brick lower room and exposed timber ceilings add real character, and the house looks renovated and usable now rather than a shell. It is more charming than spectacular, with some plain finishes and outdoor spaces that could use a refresh.
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€6,000 – €10,000
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.
- Terrace and outdoor areas feel plain and need tidying.
- Some interiors are dark and fairly simple rather than designer.
- No private parking; car must be left nearby.
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 62/100The cluster is in the Canavese at the mouth of the Valle Orco, with the Graian Alps closing the northern horizon and the first Alpine slopes starting immediately above the plain. The Orco river runs through the area. The Parco Nazionale del Gran Paradiso begins farther up the valley, with its nearest access around Ceresole Reale beyond the 15 km radius. Cuorgnè is the nearest town of size for daily needs, and Ivrea is the nearest larger centre with a railway station, hospitals and a fuller set of services. The area is known for the transition from the Canavese plain to the Alpine valleys and for hydroelectric valleys farther up the Orco basin.
