See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €29,000 for 80 m², the home costs €362/m² before an estimated €200/m² allowance for updates, or roughly €562/m² effective versus the €260/m² local benchmark. The central location and additional 100 m² recoverable storage add value, but the listing does not say whether the main dwelling is fully habitable and its G energy class suggests likely improvement costs.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely usable mountain-village home with a dramatic green Alpine backdrop, a church next door, and an appealing old-stone outbuilding. The main house has a functioning kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, tiled floors, and furniture, but it is tired and visibly damp in places, needing substantial refreshing rather than being move-in polished.
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€5,000 – €9,000
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.
- Very dated interiors with peeling paint and signs of damp.
- The adjacent two-level stone storage building is currently a renovation project, not finished living space.
- Heating is by stove; utilities and the condition of the roof/structure 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 72/100The cluster is in the lower Susa Valley with the Graian Alps and the entrances to the Orsiera-Rocciavrè Natural Park close by. The Dora Riparia runs along the valley floor. Sacra di San Michele stands on Monte Pirchiriano a few kilometres away and is one of the main historic landmarks of this part of Piemonte. Avigliana, the nearest larger town, has services, a rail connection, and the Lakes of Avigliana just to the east. The valley is known for its Alpine setting, old abbeys and forts, and as the main route from Turin toward the Mont Cenis and Fréjus passes.
