See what needs doing and what each job costs
Asking price €29,000 but estimated renovation €700/m² (150 m² → €105,000) gives an effective cost of ~€134,000 (~€893/m²), well above the regional median of €263/m², so this becomes overpriced for Piemonte. The plot and 8 photos are positives, but the house requires a full renovation, currently lists 0 bathrooms, and is inland (104 km from the sea).
More on the house and the area
Beautiful cluster of traditional Piedmont stone buildings with intact-looking slate roofs and a broad valley/plain view; the plot and historic character give strong dream-home potential. The property is clearly in need of substantial restoration and likely upgrade of services, but it’s a very photogenic renovation project with good outdoor space.
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€30,000 – €53,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

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 74/100The cluster is at the foot of the Cottian Alps, with Monte Bracco above Bagnolo Piemonte and the upper Po valley close by. The Po rises on Monviso at Pian del Re within this part of the valley system, and the Monviso massif is the dominant mountain feature in the area. The Monviso Natural Park lies nearby around the upper valley. The nearest sizeable town is Saluzzo, which has a substantial historic centre and everyday services. This area is known for mountain foothill landscapes, stone villages and the Monviso-Po valley system.
