See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €25,000 (€162/m²), the asking price is well below the local €266/m² benchmark, with 154 m² and two existing apartments. However, the listing does not state the condition; allowing €200/m² for likely updates brings the effective cost to about €862/m², while the relatively remote location limits upside.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial two-apartment farmhouse with a usable furnished kitchen, two bathrooms, balconies, garden-like surroundings, and an attractive exposed-stone section. It appears broadly habitable rather than a ruin, but the exterior is tired and the property needs meaningful updating; the €25,000 price is the main wow factor.
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€10,000 – €17,000
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 walls, balconies, and surrounding areas show significant wear and will need renovation.
- The property includes a portico subject to a right of passage.
- Utilities and technical compliance are not confirmed from the listing.
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 71/100The cluster is in the Ligurian Alps, on the upper slopes above the Corsaglia valley. The Corsaglia stream runs through this part of the Monregalese hills and valleys. The area is close to the Marguareis massif and the Parco Naturale del Marguareis lies nearby to the south-west. The ski lifts of San Giacomo di Roburent are in the comune, and the lifts at Prato Nevoso and Artesina are also nearby, with drives of roughly 20–30 minutes depending on the hamlet. Mondovì is the nearest town of size, with a larger historic centre, services and rail connections. This part of the province is known for mountain pastures, chestnut woods and small ski stations.
