What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €860/m², the asking price is about 45% above the local benchmark of €594/m²; allowing roughly €10,000 for light works puts the effective cost near €1,060/m². The independent layout, terrace, two bathrooms and potential second sleeping area add value, but the listing does not state the condition.
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€3,000 – €5,000
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.
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 lies on the Murge plateau, with open limestone countryside, cereal fields, pasture and patches of oak woodland in this part of inland Bari province. Alta Murgia National Park lies within reach of the area, and the landscape around Santeramo is part of the wider karst high plain of the Murge with sinkholes, rocky ground and dry-stone field boundaries. Matera is the nearest town of major size in daily use, with full services and the Sassi historic quarters. The area is known for Murgia grazing land, durum wheat country and meat production, especially the local cattle-breeding tradition.
