See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €43,391 (€398/m²), this is explicitly a storage/deposit unit sold at judicial auction, not a legal dwelling. It has no bathroom and a non-compliant electrical system, so it is unsuitable for a livable-home purchase regardless of the apparent price discount.
More on the house and the area
The only identifiable property photo shows a generic urban condominium frontage, with no scenic setting or distinctive architectural character. The actual unit is a single storage room with no bathroom and non-compliant electrics, so it is not presently a usable home despite the attractive stock-style interior images.
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, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€21,000 – €38,000
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.
- The listing explicitly says the interior photos may not correspond to this property.
- This is a 77 sqm ground-floor storage unit, not a confirmed habitable farmhouse or home.
- There is no bathroom and the electrical system is not compliant.
- The property is being sold at auction, requiring legal and technical due diligence.
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 42/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Bitonto, so the immediate setting is an urban edge in the olive plain north-west of Bari. The Adriatic coast is nearby, with the seafront at Santo Spirito and Giovinazzo the closest coastal reference. The nearest larger city is Bari, which provides the main rail links, port, airport and services for the area. Bitonto is known for its Romanesque old town and for olive growing, with much of the surrounding countryside planted in olive groves.
