This is a judicial auction listing, which makes it unsuitable for the catalog despite the low €382/m² asking figure. The listing also says the images are not real, and the stated zero bathrooms conflicts with the description of an apartment with a bathroom.
More on the house and the area
The described apartment is a reasonably sized, habitable 85 sqm home near the sea, but the real property is not shown. Its generic condominium setting offers no proven view, distinctive character, or especially attractive exterior, so the low price is more interesting than the home itself.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€6,000 – €9,000
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.
- The listing explicitly says the images are indicative stock photos, not the actual apartment.
- Auction purchase: legal status, occupancy, debts, and access should be verified.
- No real view, exterior appeal, historic character, or outdoor space is demonstrated.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high running costs.
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 coast and the two inland sea basins are the defining natural features here. Taranto is a major city with a large port, naval base, commercial services, hospitals, schools, and a substantial historic core on the island between the two basins. The area is known for mussel farming in the Mar Piccolo and for heavy industry around the port.
