Asking €30,000 for 145 m² and described as a 'rustico da sistemare': I estimate €700/m² renovation → effective cost ≈ €131,500 (≈€907/m²). The baseline is based on a single sample so weak, and proximity to the Cermis ski area adds value, but substantial works are required.
More on the house and the area
An atmospheric stone-and-wood alpine rustico on its own grassy plot near Val di Fiemme and ski lifts — very photogenic outside and full of historic character. It’s essentially a project: the shell and roof largely stand but the interior needs full rebuilding and services, so this is a bargain for someone prepared for substantial renovation.
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€29,000 – €51,000
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.
- Rustic/shell that needs full renovation and conversion (internals not photographed).
- Unknown utilities/permits and potential structural work despite intact-looking roof.
- Steep/uneven site and limited immediate views; neighbouring buildings close.
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 village sits on the Cembra side of the Fiemme area, with the Lagorai chain within the local horizon and the upper Val di Fiemme close by. The Avisio river valley is the main valley nearby. Paneveggio Pale di San Martino Natural Park lies farther east beyond the immediate 15 km radius. The nearest ski lifts are in the Alpe Cermis and Val di Fiemme system, roughly half an hour by road depending on the starting point. Cavalese is the nearest town of size, with the valley’s main services and a substantial historic centre. The area is known for terraced vineyards of the Val di Cembra and for mountain villages between the Cembra and Fiemme valleys.
