See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €43,000 asking price looks low, but renovating 164 m² in original 1940s condition could add roughly €115,000, bringing the effective cost to about €962/m² versus €345/m² for comparable homes. The two dwelling units, garage, garden and central location add value, but not enough to offset the heavy renovation burden.
More on the house and the area
A solid 164 sqm mountain townhouse with balconies, a small garden, garage, two living units, and striking Alpine views. The interiors are clean and functional but very dated, while the surrounding stone barns and garden add character; this is a renovation-minded home rather than a polished dream house.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€32,000 – €58,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- The main house appears usable but is dated and explicitly needs renovation.
- Several rustic outbuildings are in poor condition and may require substantial rebuilding.
- Mountain access, heating performance, utilities, and the condition of the two separate units should be verified.
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 68/100The cluster sits in the Susa Valley with the Cottian Alps immediately around it. The Dora Riparia runs along the valley floor. The lower Val di Susa is known for a broad alpine valley landscape with villages, woods and slopes rising quickly from the plain. Susa is the nearest larger town and has rail services, shops and Roman remains. The Sacra di San Michele stands above the valley near Sant’Ambrogio, within the wider valley system but farther east than the immediate surroundings. The nearest ski areas are the lower Val di Susa resorts such as Bardonecchia and the Via Lattea sector, reached by a substantial drive up-valley rather than from the village itself. This part of the valley is known for mountain access routes between Turin and France.
