What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €85,000 (€1,000/m²), the property is already above the local €766/m² benchmark; allowing roughly €59,500 for the described full customization brings the effective cost to about €1,700/m². The description is vague about condition and location, and it inconsistently presents the property as both an apartment and an independent house with adjoining rustic space.
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€17,000 – €30,000
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.
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 66/100The cluster is in the upper Val Sabbia in the foothills of the Brescian Prealps. Lake Idro lies within about 10 km to the north-east. The area is close to the Parco dell'Alto Garda Bresciano on the mountains above the lake. The nearest ski area is Maniva, roughly 25 km away by mountain road. Vestone is the nearest town of some size in the valley and has the usual shops and services; Salò on Lake Garda is farther south for a larger centre. This part of the valley is known for mountain pasture, woodland and small industrial workshops along the Sabbia corridor.
