At €360/m², the asking price is essentially in line with the local comparison level of €356/m² before renovation. The listing shows a central townhouse with garden, parking, and 20 photos, but does not state its condition, construction year, energy performance, or renovation needs, so the effective value remains uncertain.
More on the house and the area
A surprisingly substantial historic townhouse with handsome exposed timber ceilings, original tiled floors, antique doors, a fireplace, and an especially distinctive painted courtyard mural. It appears roofed, floored, serviced, and broadly livable rather than a ruin, though the kitchen is not clearly shown and the interiors need cosmetic updating and some practical modernization. At €59,000, the space and character create strong bargain appeal.
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€11,000 – €18,000
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.
- The interiors are usable but dated, with repainting and modernization likely needed.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a 164 sqm, three-bedroom townhouse.
- The property appears to be in a shared or semi-public courtyard rather than having a clearly private garden.
- Heating and energy performance should be checked; several rooms show older standalone heaters.
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 56/100The cluster lies on the hills east of Turin in the area of the Collina Torinese, with cultivated ridges, small woods and scattered villages. The Po is the main river of the area and flows on the Turin side of these hills. The nearest town of size is Turin, which has the full range of city services, rail connections, universities and major museums. This part of Piemonte is known for mixed farming, vineyards on the hill slopes in places, and for being the rural belt immediately outside Turin.
