More on the house and the area
Charming stone townhouse in a picturesque Piedmont borgo with cobbled square, terracotta roofs and very photogenic exteriors. Listed as habitable but likely needs updating (external stair access and some repairs) and is sold via auction, so allow for legal/renovation costs.
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.
- Property sold at auction — verify title, costs and procedures.
- Listing photos may be illustrative and interior views are limited.
- Some façades/roof tiles and external stairs appear to need repair or modernization.
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 58/100The cluster is in the Canavese area at the first rise from the Po plain toward the Graian Alps, with wooded hills and cultivated lower slopes. The Orco valley begins nearby to the west and the Alpine chain is visible at short range, but the high mountain terrain is outside the immediate 15 km landscape. Turin is the nearest large city and provides the main services, while Cuorgnè and Rivarolo Canavese are the closest towns of size for everyday shops and rail links. This part of Canavese is known for small hill settlements, mixed farmland and woodland rather than for a single major named natural feature inside the immediate area.
