I estimate effective price ≈ €736/m² (€59,000 + estimated €200/m² renovation → €81,000 total) versus the regional median €350/m², so this sits well above local baseline. The listing omits condition and energy class (photos look good and the description suggests a usable house), so I used a modest renovation allowance.
More on the house and the area
A solid semi‑detached village house with a very attractive brick‑vaulted cellar and a small private yard. Rooms are perfectly usable now but the home is visibly dated and would benefit from kitchen/bath and some structural attention to the outbuildings.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Interiors are dated (1970s/80s tiles and wood panelling) and need cosmetic updating (kitchen and bath).
- Large barn/portico is partly open and will require roof/structural work to convert or secure.
- Only one small bathroom; check heating, roof and utilities before purchase.
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 52/100The cluster lies in the Canavese area at the edge of the Po plain, with the Graian Alps visible to the north and west. The Malone stream runs through Front and joins the Orco nearby; the Orco valley opens toward the lower Alpine valleys around Rivarolo Canavese and Cuorgnè. The nearest town of some size is Ciriè, with rail links, shops and services, and Rivarolo Canavese is the main small centre for the upper Canavese plain. Turin is the main city for work and transport, but it is outside the immediate landscape. This part of northern Canavese is known for mixed farming, small industrial settlements and villages spread between fields and low wooded rises.
