What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
Condition not stated in the listingMust be done first
- Heating
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €532/m² before works, this is about 85% above the local benchmark; allowing roughly €300/m² for unspecified condition and completing the heating system brings the effective cost to approximately €832/m². The sea view, 3 km coastal location, private garden and cellar add appeal, but the listing does not state the property's actual condition or construction age.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, livable two-level home with a working kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, fireplace, balcony, private garden, and a spectacular panoramic sea view. The interiors are ordinary and dated rather than beautiful, but the combination of 111 sqm, outdoor space, cellar, and the Calabria coast setting makes it a compelling bargain.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €300/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€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.
- The house is clearly usable but has dated finishes, exterior wear, and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- Central heating appears to be only prepared for installation; the fireplace is the visible existing heat source.
- Energy class G; access, utilities, and the legal status of the cellar and garden should be verified.
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 68/100The cluster is on the Tyrrhenian coast at the foot of the Calabrian Coastal Range, with low mountains rising inland within a few kilometres. The coast here is the Gulf of Sant’Eufemia, with a long beach and the mouth of the Savuto river nearby. The nearest town of size is Lamezia Terme, which has shops, services, a mainline rail station and the nearest airport. This stretch of coast is known for beach resorts and for the transition from coastal plain to wooded inland slopes over a short distance.
