At €55,000 (€846/m²), this habitable 65 m² apartment is reasonably priced in absolute terms but sits above the local €672/m² benchmark. Allowing roughly €13,000 for typical habitable-condition work brings the effective cost to about €1,046/m²; heating and a cellar add practical value.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely habitable, functional apartment with a fitted kitchen, tiled floors, heating, bathroom, and two bedrooms, so it is far beyond a renovation shell. However, the interiors are modest and practical rather than characterful, while the exterior and setting offer little visual appeal or Italian dream-home magic.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
- Exterior shows weathering, worn paving, and a somewhat utilitarian shared frontage.
- Compact 65 sqm layout with one bathroom and no visible private outdoor space or notable view.
- Roadside setting may bring traffic noise.
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 51/100The area lies in the flat to gently open plain between Savigliano, Saluzzo and Fossano, with the Cottian Alps forming the main horizon to the west. The Varaita and Maira valleys begin farther west, but around the cluster the lived landscape is mainly agricultural plain crossed by secondary roads and irrigation channels. Saluzzo is the nearest historic town of note, with a substantial old centre on its hill below Monviso. Cuneo is the nearest larger provincial city, with full services and rail links. This part of the province is known for fruit growing and mixed agriculture.
