At €650/m², estimated renovation brings the effective cost to about €1,350/m², far above the local reference of €435/m². The three-level mountain property has attractive views and customization potential, but its condition, year, and legal habitability are not stated, while the remote location limits demand.
More on the house and the area
A genuine alpine-village home with spectacular, wide-open views toward the Monviso and surrounding mountains, plus beautiful stone walls, slate roofs, and old timber details. The main living spaces include a functioning kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, and heating, so this is a real usable house rather than an empty shell, though the outdoor structures and some ancillary areas need serious attention.
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€20,000 – €35,000
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.
- The interiors are usable but very dated, compact, and heavily wood-paneled.
- Exterior terraces, railings, timber structures, and storage areas appear rough and may need substantial maintenance or renovation.
- The steep historic-village setting may mean difficult vehicle access; verify utilities, heating, and the legal status of the multi-level layout.
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 89/100The cluster is in the upper Po valley at the foot of Monviso in the Cottian Alps. The River Po rises above Crissolo at Pian del Re, a few kilometres upstream. The area lies inside the Monviso Natural Park and on the Italian side of the Monviso UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Crissolo is one of the main access points for the Monviso massif and the high alpine basin around Pian della Regina and Pian del Re. The nearest ski area is the Crissolo-Monviso ski domain above the village. Saluzzo is the nearest substantial town, with a historic centre and services. The area is known above all for Monviso and for the source of the Po.
