At €19,000 for 80 m², the low purchase price is offset by an estimated €88,000 restoration budget, putting the effective cost near €1,338/m². The listing describes a rustic property with woodland but does not say whether it is habitable or provide its condition, bathrooms, or utilities; local price comparison is limited.
More on the house and the area
This is a highly atmospheric old stone-and-timber mountain rustic surrounded by roughly 9,720 m² of dense woodland, with strong historic character and total seclusion. However, the interiors are damp, empty, and seriously deteriorated, with no bathroom and substantial roof and structural work needed, so it is a renovation project rather than a livable home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€32,000 – €47,000
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.
- Uninhabitable rustic shell with no bathroom, kitchen, or visible utilities.
- Roof, balcony, floors, and masonry appear heavily deteriorated; part of the structure has collapsed.
- Deep woodland setting and rough access may make renovation logistically difficult.
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 cluster sits in the Val Pellice at the foot of the Cottian Alps. The Pellice river runs through the valley. The upper valley rises quickly toward alpine slopes and passes on the French border, and the Conca del Prà above Bobbio Pellice is one of the better known high meadows in this part of the Torinese Alps. The nearest local ski area is Rucas near Bagnolo Piemonte, roughly half an hour by road, with larger ski domains farther away in the Chisone and Susa valleys. Pinerolo is the nearest substantial town, with rail links, schools, shops and hospitals. The area is known for the Waldensian valleys and their religious and historical settlements.
