At \u20ac552/m\u00b2 vs baseline median of \u20ac608/m\u00b2, priced ~9% below market. Large 172m\u00b2 apartment (140m\u00b2 interior + 30m\u00b2 terrace) in central Falconara Marittima, walkable to sea and all services. Fully needs renovation, so budget ~\u20ac800/m\u00b2 on the interior (~\u20ac110k), bringing all-in cost close to habitable-market value but with a spacious, well-located result. Fresh listing (2 days). Note the modest discount vs baseline plus renovation risk keeps this good rather than a diamond; missing energy class and build year limit certainty. Advertised 170m\u00b2 lordi vs 172m\u00b2 record is minor and consistent.
More on the house and the area
Handsome brick corner building with some period character (moldings, balconette) is the strongest visual asset, but the interior is a dated, tired apartment needing full renovation — retro yellow kitchens, wood-paneled attic rooms, hexagonal terracotta floors and polka-dot bathrooms. The large terrace is functional but plain and overlooks nearby apartment blocks; only a distant sea sliver visible from the roof. Central location and generous 172 sqm at €552/m² give investment appeal but no genuine visual wow.
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, €800/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€34,000 – €60,000
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.

The area around
Location score 42/100The cluster is on the central Adriatic coast at the mouth area of the Esino, with beach and port-industrial shoreline around Falconara and the built-up strip running toward Ancona. Monte Conero and the Conero Regional Park are south of here but outside the 15 km landscape and do not raise the rating. Ancona is the nearest city of size, with a major port, rail links, services and historic core on the headland. The area is known for its airport and refinery zone as well as its role in the coastal urban corridor north of Ancona.
