What it really costs

In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Listing price €85,000 plus an estimated €200/m² renovation (~€39,000) yields an effective cost of ~€124,000 or ~€636/m², well above the regional median of €356/m². The house is large with garden, garage and many photos, but after realistic renovation costs the effective price is substantially higher than local norms, so this looks overpriced.
More on the house and the area
Lovely 1950s family house with high ceilings, decorative plasterwork and a marble stairwell — lived-in and move-inable but a little dated. Good private garden, covered terrace/balcony and garage give real everyday usability, making it a strong value for the price.
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€13,000 – €22,000
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.
- Only one full bathroom (1) for a large house
- Cosmetic updating and kitchen/bath modernization likely needed
- No dramatic views — residential street setting
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 56/100The area sits on the eastern Piedmont plain between the Dora Baltea and the rice lands of the Vercelli plain. The Serra d'Ivrea, the long morainic ridge left by the ancient Aosta glacier, begins a short distance to the north-west and gives the nearest distinct landform within this radius. Vercelli is the nearest larger town, with a substantial historic centre, services and rail connections. This part of the province is known for rice cultivation and irrigation canals.
