Complete renovation estimated at €700/m² → renovation ≈ €70k, so effective price ≈ €132k (1,320 €/m²) vs Piemonte median €263/m²; this high effective €/m² makes the property overpriced despite the private garden and 12 photos, and the listing shows no bathrooms.
More on the house and the area
An attractive stone barn/portico with original timber beams and a private grassy garden — plenty of character and a useful covered volume. However this is a full renovation project (no services or finished rooms) so it’s a dream-for-makers rather than a ready-to-live home.
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€20,000 – €35,000
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 72/100The Maritime Alps rise immediately southwest of Borgo San Dalmazzo, at the entrance to the Valle Stura and close to the Valle Gesso. The Stura di Demonte river runs through the area. The Parco Naturale delle Alpi Marittime begins within a few kilometres, with mountain roads leading toward the Argentera group and the French border. The nearest ski areas are Limone Piemonte and the lifts of the lower Valle Stura, roughly 25–40 minutes by road depending on the base station. Cuneo is the nearest town of size and has the main rail station, services and a substantial historic centre. The wider area is known for Alpine valleys, fortified mountain routes and access to the Maritime Alps natural park system.
