€25,000 for 84 m²; I estimate ~€200/m² for a ‘partially renovated’ baita (≈€16,800), so effective cost ≈€41,800 or ≈€498/m². That is above the region’s typical level (~€389/m²) and the regional comparator is based on a small sample, so this reads as a fair-value renovation project rather than a clear bargain.
More on the house and the area
A tucked‑away rustic baita with intact roof, original stonework and a large fireplace set in a wooded, private spot — very characterful and scenic. The interior is basic but habitable (kitchen and bathroom present), so it’s a realistic, low‑cost move‑in or light‑refurbish project. Best for someone who wants a secluded mountain retreat and is prepared to clear the garden and do modest updates.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/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€6,000 – €9,000
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.
- Access only via a ~5 minute pedestrian path — no direct car parking at the door
- Small, simple layout (84 m², one bedroom) — limited living space
- Cosmetic updating needed (kitchen, bathroom finishes, clearing/landscaping)
- Heating is basic (wood/stove) — check utilities and insulation
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 is in the lower Susa Valley with the Graian Alps and the entrances to the Orsiera-Rocciavrè Natural Park close by. The Dora Riparia runs along the valley floor. Sacra di San Michele stands on Monte Pirchiriano a few kilometres away and is one of the main historic landmarks of this part of Piemonte. Avigliana, the nearest larger town, has services, a rail connection, and the Lakes of Avigliana just to the east. The valley is known for its Alpine setting, old abbeys and forts, and as the main route from Turin toward the Mont Cenis and Fréjus passes.
