Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €162/m², the €39,000 asking price is about 57% below the local €377/m² benchmark; even allowing roughly €200/m² for unspecified updating, the effective cost remains competitive. The house has independent heating, garden, terrace and cellar, but the listing does not say whether it is immediately habitable or detail its building condition.
More on the house and the area
The mountain setting is the star: the home looks directly into a dramatic wooded Alpine valley, with a sunny village outlook and a garden/terrace. Inside, it is a substantial, roofed townhouse with multiple large rooms, functioning basic facilities, old timber floors, and some rustic character—but it needs meaningful cosmetic and technical updating rather than being move-in ready.
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€16,000 – €27,000
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.
- Interiors are usable but clearly dated, with worn timber floors, basic kitchen fittings, and visible wall/ceiling cracking or moisture staining.
- The attic/storage level is unfinished and rough, suggesting additional renovation work.
- Only one bathroom is listed for a 240 sqm, four-bedroom house; heating and utility systems should be checked.
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 Carnic Alps. The Bût valley runs through Paluzza, and the mountain setting includes Monte Crostis and the main ridge toward the Austrian border. The area is inside the Carnic mountain landscape, with forests, pastures and narrow valley settlements; the Ravascletto–Zoncolan ski lifts are about 20–25 minutes away by road, and the Forni di Sopra lifts are roughly an hour away. Tolmezzo is the nearest town of size, with hospital, secondary schools and the main services of the upper Tagliamento area. Nearby Sutrio is known for its woodcraft tradition, and the wider Carnia area is known for mountain villages, alpine pastures and First World War sites.
