What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €430/m², the €65,000 asking price is already above the Piemonte townhouse baseline of €355/m²; allowing roughly €200/m² for an apparently usable but undocumented condition gives an effective cost near €630/m². The listing has missing condition data and inconsistent bedroom figures (5 beds in the listing versus 2 bedrooms in the description).
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, spacious and move-in-ready home with a functioning kitchen, two bathrooms, multiple bedrooms, balcony space and a garden/parking area. The countryside outlook is pleasant and the €65,000 price is compelling for 151 sqm, but the exterior setting is ordinary and lacks historic character or a spectacular view.
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€10,000 – €17,000
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 house is directly on a road, with fairly ordinary neighboring buildings and little privacy.
- Interiors appear immediately usable but are dated in style and furnishings.
- The broad rural outlook is attractive, though the nearby industrial/agricultural buildings reduce the dream-home atmosphere.
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 61/100Barbania lies in the Valli di Lanzo area at the edge of the pre-Alpine hills north of Turin, with the lower Lanzo valleys and the first Alpine relief close by. The Stura di Lanzo river runs through the wider area to the west. The nearest larger town is Ciriè, which has a railway station, shops and services, while Turin is the main city for higher-order services and work. The Lanzo valleys are known for mountain access, chestnut woods and small valley villages; higher ski lifts are farther up-valley and are not at the village itself.
