The listing offers only half of an independent tabià, creating a material ownership and use restriction, and it does not confirm that the building is legally habitable as a dwelling. At €491/m² before renovation, with likely restoration costs around €1,100/m², this is not a safe residential deal.
More on the house and the area
The setting is exceptional, with sweeping views of the Dolomites, steep green valleys, and the Monte Civetta area, while the old timber tabià has strong Alpine character. However, the property is currently an agricultural storage barn with raw interiors and no bathroom, kitchen, or living accommodation, so it is a highly scenic renovation project rather than a usable 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€45,000 – €67,000
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.
- This is a traditional barn/storage building, not a move-in-ready home.
- The plans show deposits/storage and no bathroom, kitchen, or bedroom.
- Major conversion and renovation work would be needed, including utilities and likely structural upgrades.
- The steep mountain setting may make access and construction logistics challenging.
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

Lake/river: Lago di Alleghe is the nearest mountain lake (Alleghe) to the north, and the Cordevole runs along the valley floor. Park status: this area is part of the Dolomite mountain system that is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Ski lifts: the Civetta/Alleghe ski area (Alleghe, Palafavera) provides the nearest downhill lifts, typically a 15–25 minute drive depending on road conditions. Nearest town: Agordo is the nearest town of size a few kilometres away and offers shops, a supermarket, basic services, schools and local industry (notably the eyewear group headquartered there). Access/roads: the locality sits on the Agordino valley road (local state/regional routes) that link to higher mountain passes and valley ski/lake destinations. Local economy/land use: the wider area is oriented to mountain tourism, winter sports and small-scale local industry and services.
