See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €45,000 (€495/m²), this 91 m² apartment is attractively priced; allowing about €250/m² for replacing the obsolete heating system gives an effective cost near €745/m², slightly below comparable Lombardy apartments. It is immediately usable with a wood stove, but Azzone is a remote mountain location and the listing does not state the building age or overall condition.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, furnished and immediately usable three-bedroom village apartment with a sunny paved terrace and a rugged mountain-village setting. The kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms are functional but dated, while the heating issue is a meaningful practical renovation rather than a cosmetic detail. It is charming and livable, but lacks a dramatic view, private outdoor space or standout architectural interiors.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €250/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€8,000 – €12,000
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 existing heating system with radiators needs to be completely replaced; current heating relies on a wood stove.
- Interiors are dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- The terrace and small outdoor area are shared with other families; no private garden or significant view is shown.
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 76/100The cluster is in the Camonica Alps above Val Camonica, with wooded slopes and open pasture around Borno and the Concarena massif visible nearby. Val Camonica lies immediately below, with the Oglio river running along the valley floor. The area is close to the edge of the Adamello Regional Park on the west side of the valley. The Borno-Monte Altissimo ski area is directly above the village, and the larger lifts of Montecampione are about 20-30 minutes away by road. The nearest town of size is Darfo Boario Terme in the valley, with rail access, shops and services. Val Camonica is known for its alpine valley landscape and for the prehistoric rock engravings around Capo di Ponte, a UNESCO site in the valley.
