In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
€60,000 for 130 m² plus estimated €200/m² renovation (€26,000) gives an effective €86,000 or ~€662/m², well above the regional median of €312/m²; habitable condition and 13 photos are consistent, but the effective price per m² is high for this market.
More on the house and the area
Solid, habitable 3‑level house with private garden, balconies and a cosy fireplace set in a quiet wooded setting. Interiors are dated but complete — ready to live in with cosmetic refresh, offering very good value for space and location.
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€9,000 – €14,000
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.
- Dated 1970s finishes and fixtures — cosmetic updating recommended
- Check heating system, insulation and energy certificates
- Wooded/mountain setting can mean limited services and winter access — verify local access
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 61/100The cluster is in the Bormida valley hill country between the Langhe and the Ligurian Apennines. The Bormida di Millesimo runs through this area, with wooded ridges and mixed farmland around the villages. The Ligurian Apennines are close to the south, but the higher alpine scenery of the main Cuneo ranges is much farther away. Saliceto has a medieval castle, and Millesimo nearby is one of the small historic centres of this upper Val Bormida. The area is known for woodland, hazelnuts and mixed hill agriculture rather than for a single major landmark.
