See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €39,000 (€488/m²), the apartment looks cheap initially, but estimated renovation brings the effective cost to about €95,000, or €1,188/m²—well above the local €542/m² reference. A garage and balcony help, but the renovation burden substantially weakens the deal.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, usable three-bedroom apartment with bright rooms, a working kitchen, terrazzo floors, balcony access, and a garage. However, it is visually ordinary and dated, with a cramped bathroom and no proven scenic setting or special character to create a strong dream-home effect.
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€16,000 – €28,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

The area around
Location score 38/100This is in the built-up northwestern fringe of Naples, in the Campanian plain. The Camaldoli hill area lies nearby and the volcanic Campi Flegrei are within about 15 km, with the crater of the Astroni reserve and the crater lakes of Averno and Lucrino in that wider western belt. Naples is the nearest major city and provides the full range of services, rail links, universities, hospitals and major historic monuments. The area is known for dense suburban settlement tied to metropolitan Naples rather than for a distinct rural or self-contained landscape.
