What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
Condition not stated in the listing- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial-auction property, which makes it a trap under the buying rules regardless of its €13,275 price. The 79 m² home is explicitly abandoned and degraded, with a presumed asbestos roof covering, so substantial restoration costs are likely.
More on the house and the area
The described townhouse has some potentially attractive vaulted rooms and a rooftop terrace, but the actual property is abandoned and degraded. Since the photos are not of the property, they provide no reliable evidence of its beauty, condition, or livability; substantial renovation should be assumed.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€31,000 – €46,000
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 states that the property is abandoned and in a state of degradation.
- The displayed photos are explicitly indicative and are not real photos of this property.
- The presumed asbestos/eternit roof covering requires specialist inspection and may require costly replacement.
- This is a court-auction purchase with possible legal, access, and renovation risks.
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 62/100The area sits on the Murge plateau, with a dry karst landscape of open fields, vineyards, olive groves and patches of oak woodland. Alta Murgia National Park begins within roughly this radius to the northwest, with limestone uplands, sinkholes and steppe-like pasture. Gioia del Colle has a substantial historic centre and a Norman-Swabian castle. Acquaviva delle Fonti is the nearest larger town in the area, with services and a built historic core. This part of inland Bari is known for wine production, especially Primitivo di Gioia del Colle, and for dairy farming on the plateau.
