At €619/m², the asking price is slightly below the local €667/m² benchmark, but allowing about €200/m² for a habitable apartment brings the effective cost to roughly €819/m². The listing offers heating, fiber, a security door, elevator and balcony, but does not state the energy class or bathroom details.
More on the house and the area
This is an unusually grand, highly photogenic historic building with ornate façades, balconies, a monumental entrance, and strong architectural character. The apartment is described as habitable with autonomous heating and a balcony, making it a realistic home rather than a renovation shell, though the lack of interior photos limits confidence.
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€6,000 – €10,000
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.
- The gallery shows only the exterior, so the apartment’s interior quality, bathroom, kitchen, and finishes cannot be verified.
- It is an urban roadside apartment with no visible private garden or notable view.
- Apartment-level condition and any condominium maintenance costs should be checked.
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 Saluzzo plain at the foot of the Cottian Alps, with Monviso dominating the western skyline and the lower Varaita Valley opening within a few kilometres. The Po rises on Monviso farther up the valley system, and the Varaita is the local river of this side of the plain. Saluzzo is the nearest substantial town and has a preserved historic centre with the hilltop Castiglia and a concentration of late-medieval and Renaissance buildings. Manta, just nearby, is known for the Castello della Manta. This part of the province is known for fruit growing, especially apples and kiwi, with a dense pattern of orchards across the plain.
