Estimated effective cost €98,000 (€49k price + ~€49k renovation = €1,400/m²) versus local median €355/m², so this is well above typical Piemonte prices. The listing text claims the house is 'in buone condizioni' while the condition is listed as 'Needs renovation' (contradiction); positive points are central location and a double garage.
More on the house and the area
Classic small Piemonte town-centre house with a pretty courtyard, balcony views onto the church and ready-to-personalise rooms. The building is liveable structurally (floors, windows, heating present) but needs clear cosmetic and bathroom/kitchen renovation and some attention to damp and the unfinished garage areas.
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€14,000 – €25,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

The area around
Location score 40/100This is the Canavese plain between the Malone stream and the lower Dora Baltea basin, with a flat agricultural landscape of fields and irrigation channels. The nearest larger town is Chivasso, which has rail links, shops and everyday services; Turin is farther west and matters for commuting but is outside the immediate landscape. The area is known for farming on the plain.
