What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €390/m², the asking price is close to the Piemonte baseline of €398/m², but the €78,000 price rises to an estimated €218,000 effective cost after €700/m² renovation for 200 m². The description mentions only some completed works and provides no clear overall condition, making the true renovation scope uncertain.
More on the house and the area
A substantial, independent mountain home with a wonderfully lush private garden, stone retaining walls, balconies, and beautiful wooded surroundings. Inside, it is a real, usable house with floors, kitchen, bathrooms, timber beams, wood paneling, and good windows, though the style is dated and some finishes need refreshing.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€40,000 – €70,000
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.
- Interiors are very dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- Some ceiling and wall finishes show wear or moisture-related discoloration.
- The large, lush garden will require regular maintenance; utilities and energy performance are not shown.
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 72/100The cluster sits at the entrance to the Dora Baltea valley, with the Biellese and Canavese foothills around it and the Pennine Alps rising farther up-valley. The Dora Baltea runs through this stretch of valley. The Mont Avic Natural Park lies just across the Valle d'Aosta border to the north, and the first Alpine valleys open within a few kilometres. The nearest ski lifts are in the Gressoney and Champorcher sides of Valle d'Aosta, reached in roughly an hour by car, so they are not part of the immediate setting. Ivrea is the nearest town of size, with a full service centre and a historic core; its industrial city of the 20th century is a UNESCO site. This area is known for the old route into Valle d'Aosta, for Romanesque churches and castles around the lower Dora Baltea, and for vine terraces on the valley sides, including the Carema wine area nearby.
