Price €69,000 plus an estimated €100/m² of minor updates (total ≈€76,500) yields an effective €≈1,020/m², well above regional comparables around €189/m²; excellent central apartment with elevator and two balconies but priced high. Property is tenant-occupied until 9 Mar 2027 and the listing states it is ready to move into, which I counted as low-cost work.
More on the house and the area
A well-kept, move-in-ready 75 m² apartment with a long, livable balcony and clear mountain views — practical layout, refitted kitchen and intact bathroom. Solid, everyday home in a 1969 palazzo that represents good value, though finishes are ordinary and the flat is currently rented.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €100/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€3,000 – €4,000
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.
- Property is tenant-occupied until 9/3/2027 (seller notes an existing lease).
- Centralised gas heating — expect condominium heating bills and management fees.
- Building and interiors are dated (1969 block); cosmetic updates may be desired.
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.
