At €32,381 (€438/m²), the price looks low versus comparable Bitonto stock, but this is explicitly a 74 m² deposito/magazzino rather than a legal dwelling and is offered at judicial auction. The listing also says the electrical system is not compliant and that published photos may not show the specific property, so it is unsuitable for buyers seeking a livable home.
More on the house and the area
The staged photos suggest an attractive, fully furnished home, but they are not reliable evidence for this property. The actual listing describes a plain street-level storage space with one large room, a small bathroom, no proven bedroom or kitchen, and a non-compliant electrical system. At this price it may be a speculative conversion project, not a beautiful ready-to-live-in Italian home.
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€15,000 – €26,000
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 published interior photos explicitly may not correspond to this property.
- The actual asset is a single 74 sqm ground-floor storage/deposit room, not a farmhouse or finished home.
- The electrical system is not compliant, and the unit is currently connected to the adjacent deposit.
- It is being sold at auction, with residential usability and conversion status requiring verification.
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.
