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
The €314/m² asking price is 12% below the Piemonte townhouse baseline of €355/m², but the unfinished ground-floor finishes and attic requiring integral renovation raise the estimated effective cost to about €564/m². Central location, terrace, balconies and parking support the deal, but the renovation burden largely removes the headline discount.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, usable 110 sqm home with a working kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, balconies, and a private south-facing terrace/courtyard. Its strongest appeal is the leafy village setting with a dramatic historic fortress and mountain backdrop, plus attractive old stone paving and traditional details. It is not move-in polished, but at €34,500 it offers strong dream-home potential rather than being merely a renovation shell.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €250/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€9,000 – €15,000
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 home is habitable but visibly dated, with cosmetic modernization needed.
- One ground-floor room is unfinished, and the 55 sqm attic would require a full renovation to become living space.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a three-bedroom layout; verify heating, roof, and utilities.
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 di Susa with the Graian Alps and the western Alpine chain closing the valley on both sides. The Dora Riparia runs along the valley floor. The lower Val di Susa has a continuous mountain backdrop, forested slopes and small villages set between the river corridor and the side valleys. The Sacra di San Michele stands on Mount Pirchiriano about 15 km away and is one of the main historic landmarks of the valley. Susa is the nearest larger town, with Roman remains, services and rail connections through the valley. The area is known for the old transalpine route toward the Mont Cenis and Fréjus passes and for fortified villages and abbeys along the valley. The nearest ski areas are in the upper Val di Susa, with lifts around Bardonecchia and the Via Lattea resorts reached by road in roughly 45 to 70 minutes.
