What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €55,000 for 49 m², the effective cost is about €2,245/m² after allowing €900/m² for likely works, far above the €491/m² local comparison level. The single-room property has no bathroom, its legal residential status and utilities are not stated, and only one photo supports the claim that it is fully finished.
More on the house and the area
A charming rustic stone farmhouse with an attractive old tile roof, surrounded by an exceptionally large olive grove and woodland in a peaceful Tuscan setting. However, the 49 sqm one-room property has no listed bathroom or bedrooms and appears more like a basic rural retreat or conversion project than a ready-to-live-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, €900/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€10,000 – €17,000
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.
- No bathroom or bedrooms are listed, so it is unlikely to be move-in ready.
- The single photo shows only the exterior; kitchen, utilities, interior finishes, and structural condition are unverified.
- The extensive olive grove and woodland may require substantial maintenance and access planning.
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 55/100The cluster is in the plain east of Lucca between Monte Pisano to the south and the first hills that rise toward the Pizzorne plateau and the Apennine foothills to the north-east. The Serchio basin shapes the wider landscape around Lucca, with canals and farmland across the plain. Lucca is the nearest substantial town and has a complete walled historic centre, rail links and full services. Within this area are a number of Lucchesi villas and estate landscapes, especially around Marlia and Segromigno, for which this part of Capannori is known. The Piana di Lucca is known for mixed agriculture, nurseries, villas and suburban settlement spread along local roads.
