Asking €290,000 for 248 m2 is €1,169/m2; adding an estimated €200/m2 renovation gives ~€1,370/m2, well above the local baseline of €306/m2, so this looks overpriced for Piemonte. The listing does not state the building condition or energy class (but has many photos and central location).
More on the house and the area
A roomy, well-kept 3-level villa with bright, marble-floored rooms, balconied facades and a private garden/pergola — clearly a livable family home. The style is dated rather than architecturally striking, so it’s charming and move-in-ready but would reward tasteful modernisation.
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€17,000 – €28,000
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.
- Interior finishes are dated and will benefit from cosmetic updating
- Suburban / central location with no notable views
- Buyer should verify condition of systems (heating/electrics) and insulation/roofing
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 74/100The cluster lies in the Roero hills, a landscape of vine-covered ridges and small wooded valleys on the left bank of the Tanaro. The Tanaro river runs nearby, and the area sits between Alba and Bra, both close at hand for daily services, rail links and a larger historic centre. This is wine country associated with Roero DOCG and the wider Langhe-Roero food landscape, with vineyards, hazelnut cultivation and cellar villages across the surrounding hills. The UNESCO wine landscape of Langhe-Roero and Monferrato includes nearby parts of the Roero around Canale and Govone within this wider area. Turin is the nearest major city at longer range, and the Ligurian coast is not far in regional terms but does not affect the immediate setting.
