The €31,019 asking price is only €270/m², about half the local comparison level, but the effective cost rises to roughly €970/m² after allowing €700/m² for an unspecified renovation. The listing confirms full ownership and a sea-front location, yet says almost nothing about habitability, layout, bathrooms, or condition; energy class G adds uncertainty.
More on the house and the area
This is a characterful historic ground-floor property with an attractive old façade, arched entrance, and vaulted communal courtyard. The 115 sqm interior is roofed and structurally house-like, with tiled floors and bathroom fixtures, but it is currently a raw, cluttered renovation project rather than a move-in 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€23,000 – €41,000
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.
- Substantial renovation and clearing-out are needed; interiors are cluttered and unfinished.
- No kitchen or bedrooms are visibly ready for use, and the listing records zero bathrooms despite bathroom fixtures appearing in the photos.
- Ground-floor urban setting with no private outdoor space or meaningful view shown.
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 92/100Mount Vesuvius (Vesuvio) sits within the 15 km radius and dominates the inland skyline. The town fronts the Gulf of Naples (Bay of Naples) on the Sorrentine Peninsula coast. The Sarno River reaches the sea nearby and the surrounding lowland is the Sarno plain. Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio covers the volcano and its slopes and includes trails and park roads up to the crater area. There are no ski lifts within the 15 km radius. The archaeological site of Pompeii lies about 4–6 km to the east. The archaeological site of Herculaneum (Ercolano) is on the coast a few kilometres to the northwest. The archaeological site of Oplontis (Villa Poppaea) is within the municipality of Torre Annunziata. The archaeological areas of Pompeii, Herculaneum and Oplontis/Torre Annunziata are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Naples and its airport (Naples-Capodichino) are the nearest large-city services, roughly 20–30 km by road. The coastal plain in and around Torre Annunziata includes ports, historical shipyards and mixed agricultural and industrial land use. The area is known for its Roman-era archaeological sites and for the volcanic landscape associated with Vesuvius.
