See what needs doing and what each job costs
Large 205 m² townhouse asking €69,000 (≈€337/m²) but in 'needs renovation' condition — estimated renovation €700/m² → ~€143,500 total, giving an effective price ≈€212,500 (≈€1,037/m²). That effective €/m² is nearly three times the regional baseline of ~€355/m², so despite good layout, garage and cellar, the renovation burden makes this overpriced.
More on the house and the area
A roomy, solid two‑storey house with a sunny private courtyard, garage/outbuildings and attractive mountain views — very liveable potential for a family home or two apartments. The fabric is intact and heating is installed, but interiors are dated and show damp/plaster issues so expect a renovation to modernise and fix the garage roof.
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€41,000 – €72,000
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.

The area around
Location score 68/100The cluster sits in the Susa Valley with the Cottian Alps immediately around it. The Dora Riparia runs along the valley floor. The lower Val di Susa is known for a broad alpine valley landscape with villages, woods and slopes rising quickly from the plain. Susa is the nearest larger town and has rail services, shops and Roman remains. The Sacra di San Michele stands above the valley near Sant’Ambrogio, within the wider valley system but farther east than the immediate surroundings. The nearest ski areas are the lower Val di Susa resorts such as Bardonecchia and the Via Lattea sector, reached by a substantial drive up-valley rather than from the village itself. This part of the valley is known for mountain access routes between Turin and France.
