What it really costs

Livable, but something basic is worn out

See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is explicitly a judicial auction and includes a separate magazzino, triggering a veto despite the €317/m² asking price being close to the Piemonte baseline of €315/m². The listing's “Villa/Habitable” facts conflict with the description identifying an apartment plus warehouse.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large, usable rural property with extensive outdoor space and a striking Alpine backdrop near Albiano d’Ivrea. The brick-and-balcony exterior has some character, but the interiors look basic and lived-in rather than beautiful, and the missing bathroom information is a significant concern. The low price per square metre is attractive, though the auction format adds practical and legal complexity.
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€20,000 – €35,000
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.
- Auction purchase requires careful review of the court documents, occupancy and legal status.
- The listing reports zero bathrooms, so essential facilities need verification.
- The property appears habitable but quite utilitarian and cluttered, with likely cosmetic updating needed.
- The mountain panorama is compelling, but the home itself is not shown with a polished or particularly distinctive interior.
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 68/100The cluster sits at the edge of the Canavese area between the Serra d'Ivrea and the Dora Baltea plain. The Dora Baltea runs nearby, and the morainic landscape left by the ancient glacier shapes the area around Ivrea. Lake Sirio and the other small lakes of the Ivrea morainic amphitheatre are within this radius. Ivrea is the nearest town of size and has a substantial historic centre, services and the Olivetti industrial heritage site inscribed on the UNESCO list. The area is known for the morainic ridge of the Serra, vineyards on the Canavese hills, and the transition from Po plain farmland to the Alpine foothills.
