See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €40,000 asking price is just €169/m², but renovating 237 m² internally at an estimated €600/m² brings the effective cost to about €769/m², above the local €356/m² benchmark. The solid structure and roof are positives, while the inland location and substantial renovation needs limit the deal value.
More on the house and the area
A generously sized Piedmontese townhouse with striking vaulted ceilings, a traditional fireplace, patterned floors, antique details, and glimpses toward wooded hills. It is a genuine furnished home rather than a bare shell, but substantial interior refurbishment is needed before it feels fully comfortable and contemporary.
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, €600/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€47,000 – €83,000
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 listing says the interior needs renovation, despite a solid structure and roof.
- Visible peeling plaster and damp-looking wall damage need investigation.
- Kitchens, bathrooms, heating, windows, and electrical systems appear dated; functionality is unverified.
- No exterior garden views or access details are shown clearly in the gallery.
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 61/100The area sits on the hills above the Po, with the river running nearby and a belt of cultivated slopes and woods typical of the eastern Torino hills and the edge of Monferrato.
