What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €59,000 the asking price is only €197/m², but a 300 m² villa needing renovation could require about €210,000 more, bringing the effective cost to roughly €897/m² versus a local reference of €279/m². The listing offers garage, balconies and terraces, but its inland location and substantial renovation need make it weak value.
More on the house and the area
A surprisingly large, functional village house with multiple bedrooms, two bathrooms, heating, a kitchen, tiled floors, balcony, and a characterful old fireplace. It is clearly more than a shell and could be lived in, but the extensive utilitarian outbuildings, worn courtyard, and dated interiors make this a renovation bargain rather than a dream-home beauty.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€59,000 – €105,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- Substantial cosmetic and maintenance work is visible, especially to the courtyard buildings, roofs, shutters, and exterior finishes.
- The large covered sheds and shared-looking paved courtyard may limit privacy and add renovation complexity.
- No strong panoramic setting is shown, though mountains appear faintly in the background.
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 lies at the foot of the Cottian Alps, with Monte Bracco and the first Alpine slopes immediately above the plain. The Po rises nearby at Pian del Re under Monviso, and Monviso is the dominant mountain in this part of the province. The lower Valle Po begins within this radius. Crissolo is the nearest ski area, with small lifts roughly 30–40 minutes away depending on the exact point. Saluzzo is the nearest substantial town, with a walled historic centre, services and rail connection toward the plain. This area is known for the Monviso massif, the source of the Po, and fruit growing on the plain at the foot of the mountains.
