What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €29,000 for 35 sqm, the ask is €829/sqm; assuming habitable condition adds about €200/sqm, the effective cost is ~€1,029/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €352/sqm in Piemonte townhouses. Nice mountain view and 25 photos help credibility, but on numbers alone it looks expensive for this catalog despite being a usable small home.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely habitable little mountain house, with a cute old-stone setting, a bit of outdoor space and real open mountain views. The wow comes more from the location and bargain charm than from the house itself, because the interiors are simple, cramped and dated but usable right away. It feels like a modest retreat or base in the Alps rather than a full dream-home showstopper.
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€2,000 – €4,000
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.
- Very small home at just 35 sqm.
- Interior is basic and dated rather than beautiful.
- Visible exterior plaster wear and some signs of moisture/ageing.
- Tiny bathroom and compact spiral-stair layout may limit everyday comfort.
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 74/100The cluster is in the upper Susa Valley in the Cottian Alps. The Dora Riparia runs through the valley. The Gran Bosco di Salbertrand regional park is nearby on the valley side. The nearest ski lifts are in the Bardonecchia area and at Sauze d’Oulx on the Via Lattea domain, reached by road in roughly 25–35 minutes depending on the exact hamlet. Susa is the nearest town of size and has rail services, shops and notable Roman remains including the Arch of Augustus and the amphitheatre area. This part of the valley is known for Alpine transit routes toward Montgenèvre and the Fréjus corridor, and for military forts such as the Forte di Exilles in the valley.
