At €1,104/m² before works, this is already about 51% above comparable local listings; assuming a renovation budget of roughly €700/m² pushes the effective cost to about €1,804/m². The very short description does not say whether the apartment is habitable, its energy performance, or even its bathroom layout, so the asking price is difficult to justify.
More on the house and the area
A highly appealing 53 sqm Tuscan apartment with sweeping countryside views, traditional shutters, a village-center historic facade, and a charming fireplace. The depicted interior appears clean, furnished, and immediately livable rather than a renovation shell, but the AI-generated imagery makes the real condition and even the exact view uncertain.
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€11,000 – €19,000
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.
- All listing images are explicitly marked as AI-generated and non-real, so the condition, views, layout, and furnishings must be verified.
- The facts list 0 bathrooms despite bathrooms appearing in the images.
- The apartment appears to face a roadway, which may mean traffic noise and limited privacy.
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 68/100Chianciano Terme is a thermal spa town with natural thermal springs and public spa facilities. The cluster sits on the Valdichiana plain and surrounding low hills; land use around it is vineyards, olive groves and arable farming. Montepulciano lies within roughly 12 km and has a medieval historic centre and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano wine production. Chiusi is within about 8 km and contains Etruscan archaeological sites and the Museo Nazionale Etrusco di Chiusi. There are no national or regional parks or major lakes inside a 15 km radius. Nearest ski lifts (Monte Amiata) are about 35–40 km away (roughly 45–60 minutes by car). The A1 autostrada and the Chiusi–Chianciano railway station provide road and rail links to Florence and Rome. The immediate surroundings are low-relief agricultural and hill-country rather than high mountains or coast.
