In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
A habitable 94 m² townhouse at €69,000 becomes roughly €88,000 after a modest €200/m² allowance, or about €934/m² versus the local €631/m² benchmark. The historic-center setting, independent layout, fireplace, and rooftop terrace add appeal, but the premium price and energy class G limit the deal value.
More on the house and the area
This is a highly characterful historic-center townhouse, with striking exposed stone, a large fireplace, wrought-iron details, and an unusually photogenic alley setting. It appears to be a real, habitable home with a functioning bathroom, kitchen appliances, tiled floors, heating equipment, and two bedrooms rather than an empty shell. The lack of a visible terrace and the basic, somewhat dated finish keep it below dream-home territory.
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 – €11,000
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 advertised rooftop terrace is not shown in the gallery, so its size and condition are unverified.
- The kitchen is very basic and the upper-floor rooms are unfinished or sparsely equipped.
- Energy class G and older fixtures may mean future efficiency and modernization 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 area around
Location score 50/100This is the inland Murge around Acquaviva delle Fonti, with a low limestone plateau of fields, olive groves and scattered masserie. The area is known for the red onion of Acquaviva and for agricultural land on karst ground. Within about 15 km the main places of size are Acquaviva itself and nearby Santeramo in Colle, with ordinary town centres and daily services; Bari is farther away and does not change the immediate landscape.
