What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €59,900 for 84 sqm, the ask is €713/sqm; with a likely renovation budget of about €700/sqm from the description ('progetto di ristrutturazione', large storage room), effective cost is roughly €1,413/sqm. That sits well above this catalog baseline of €426/sqm for Piemonte country houses, but the house appears to be a real dwelling with garden/terrace and 20 photos, so it looks like a plausible renovation project rather than a trap.
More on the house and the area
The green hillside setting and usable garden give it a pleasant country feel, with decent balcony outlooks over rooftops and woods. Crucially, this is a solid, roofed, floored house with a bathroom and functional layout, not a shell, but the interiors are very dated and the missing kitchen means it is not move-in ready. It feels like a livable house that needs straightforward renovation rather than a dream-home showpiece.
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€17,000 – €30,000
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 dated and need a real cosmetic refresh.
- Kitchen is currently stripped out.
- Some ancillary/storage spaces feel basic and unfinished.
- Setting is attractive but not especially private or dramatic.
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 68/100The cluster sits at the foot of the Maritime Alps in the open plain just south-west of Cuneo. The Stura di Demonte runs through this part of the province, and the lower Valle Stura begins within a few kilometres to the west. The Parco naturale delle Alpi Marittime is in the mountains above Valdieri and Entracque, roughly within the wider 15 km radius from here. The nearest ski lifts are the small local areas in the valleys above Borgo San Dalmazzo and Demonte, with larger skiing farther away in the province. Cuneo is the nearest town of size and has the main services, rail connections and a substantial historic centre laid out on its wedge-shaped plateau. This area is known for mixed farming on the plain and as the gateway from Cuneo into the Alpine valleys toward the French border.
