See what needs doing and what each job costs
The €88,000 price is €352/m² before works; with four buildings described as needing renovation or recovery, estimated total cost rises to roughly €1,450/m² for the 250 m² residential component, far above the local €260/m² reference. The large 4,500 m² grounds and additional structures add potential, but the listing does not clarify habitability, usable areas, or project costs.
More on the house and the area
This is a photogenic Piemonte farmhouse compound with substantial stone-and-brick character, traditional portico structures, and approximately 4,500 sqm of surrounding land. However, the property is clearly a major recovery project rather than a livable home: several roofs and ancillary buildings are badly deteriorated, and no finished interior facilities are shown.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€99,000 – €146,000
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.
- Major renovation or reconstruction appears necessary across multiple buildings.
- Some roofs and structural elements look severely deteriorated or partially collapsed.
- No usable interiors, bathrooms, kitchens, or utilities are shown; substantial project costs are likely.
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 62/100The Maritime Alps rise immediately west of Caraglio, with the lower Val Grana and the entrance to the Cuneo valleys within the local landscape. The Grana stream runs through the area and the Stura di Demonte valley is close by. The Parco fluviale Gesso e Stura begins around the Cuneo plain nearby. The nearest substantial town is Cuneo, which provides the main services, rail links and a larger historic centre. This part of the province is known for the transition from the Cuneo plain to the Alpine valleys, for orchards and mixed farming, and for access toward the Occitan valleys of the southwest Piedmont mountains.
