The listing is explicitly an advertised 'magazzino' (storage) of 233 m2 in town center and cannot be used as a dwelling without a change of use. At €10,000 (€43/m2) conversion estimated ~€1,100/m2 gives an effective ≈€1,143/m2, so this is a non-habitable storage unit rather than a ready house.
More on the house and the area
Generous, solid-built town property with attractive vaulted ceilings and original flooring — lots of character at a very low price. It is currently storage and would need a full conversion (bath/kitchen, services and finishes) to be a comfortable, livable home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€92,000 – €137,000
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.
- Currently used as storage/magazzino – not set up as a home and missing residential fittings (kitchen/bath).
- No private garden or scenic view; property is attached in the town centre.
- Conversion to a dwelling will likely need permits and renovation (utilities, partitions, insulation).
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 33/100This is the eastern Piedmont plain between the Dora Baltea and the Po basin, with a landscape dominated by rice fields, irrigation canals and straight rural roads. The nearest substantial town is Vercelli, which has services, rail connections and a historic centre with major churches and civic buildings. Ivrea and the first Alpine valleys are farther away and do not define the immediate 15 km surroundings. The area is known for rice cultivation in the vercellese plain.
