What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €50,000 for 115 sqm, the asking price is just €435/sqm; assuming a basically habitable layout from the description, a light renovation estimate of about €200/sqm gives an effective cost near €635/sqm. That is above this catalog's low Piemonte country-house baseline of €426/sqm, but the property is in the town center, has 32 photos, and appears to be a real dwelling rather than a storage building, so it still looks like a solid rather than exceptional deal.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable village house in a very attractive mountain setting, with a long balcony and lovely views over the piazza and green hills. The exterior has charm and the rooms look solid, furnished, and functional, but the interiors are plainly old-fashioned rather than beautiful. At €50k for 115 sqm, it has strong dreamer appeal as a livable base with refreshment work rather than a finished wow home.
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€8,000 – €13,000
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 modernization.
- No truly standout historic interior features are visible.
- Village setting means no private garden or land shown.
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 Maritime Alps are the immediate setting, with the lower Stura di Demonte valley nearby and steep wooded side valleys around the village. The Parco Naturale delle Alpi Marittime begins a short distance to the south-west around Entracque and Valdieri. The nearest ski area is Limone Piemonte, about an hour by road. Cuneo is the nearest town of size, with full services, rail connections and a substantial historic centre. This part of the province is known for alpine pasture, chestnut and beech woods, and access to hiking valleys leading toward the French border.
