What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This 180 sqm farmhouse is priced at €278/sqm, below the local low-stock baseline of €361/sqm, but it is explicitly completely to restore, so I estimate about €1,100/sqm renovation. That brings the effective cost to roughly €1,378/sqm, so the buy-in is cheap but the total project is only a moderately good deal; the flexible multi-unit potential and independent access help.
More on the house and the area
The setting has real alpine-village character, with stone walls, old wooden balconies and a dramatic rock backdrop. But this is clearly a full renovation project rather than a usable home today, with no interior proof of livable rooms and visible age throughout. At €50k for 180 sqm it has intriguing potential, yet the wow is mostly from atmosphere, not current habitability.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€71,000 – €105,000
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.
- Completely to be renovated; currently not a ready-to-live home.
- No bathroom or bedroom count shown, suggesting unfinished/unusable interiors.
- Only exterior photos are provided, so interior condition and utilities are unproven.
- Some timber balconies/roof edges look aged and may need significant structural work.
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 74/100The cluster sits in the central Aosta Valley with the Pennine Alps around it and steep valley sides rising directly from the Dora Baltea. The Dora Baltea runs through the valley floor here. Mont Avic Natural Park lies just to the south-east, with side valleys leading up toward Champorcher. The nearest ski lifts are in the Champorcher area, roughly 30–40 minutes by road, and larger lift systems are farther west in the main valley. The nearest larger town is Aosta, which has the full range of services and a major Roman historic centre. The valley around Montjovet is known for castles and fortified sites, including the Bard area farther down-valley, and for vineyard terraces on the sunnier slopes.
