At €9,900, the property needs substantial recovery and is currently uninhabitable; estimated all-in cost is about €71,500, or €1,277/m². That is well above the local €598/m² reference, so the low purchase price does not translate into a strong deal.
More on the house and the area
The historic Puglian façade has attractive proportions, aged detailing, and an ornate wrought-iron balcony, giving it genuine character. However, this is currently a non-habitable restoration project with visible deterioration and temporary supports, so the very low price reflects the work required rather than a ready-to-live-in home.
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€22,000 – €33,000
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.
- Explicitly non-habitable in its current state and requires substantial recovery work.
- Visible temporary structural bracing, façade deterioration, cracked plaster, and boarded/opening damage suggest possible structural issues.
- No usable interior, kitchen, bathroom, utilities, or living spaces are shown; legal and renovation costs need 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 38/100The area lies on the Tavoliere plain, with the first relief of the Gargano inland to the east but outside the immediate landscape of the town. San Severo is a medium-sized service town with a historic centre, rail links and the main shops and services for this part of northern Puglia. This part of the province is known for broad arable farmland and for San Severo DOC wine and olive growing.
