At €30/m², the stated €21,430 price is an extraordinary 94% below the local €485/m² benchmark, with 18 photos and a newly listed property. However, describing a 703 m² apartment as renovated at this price is highly implausible, while the listing does not state the bathrooms, building year, or energy performance; verify the actual floor area, legal status, and condition.
More on the house and the area
This is a very large, inexpensive town property with usable tiled interiors, a functioning-looking kitchen and bathroom, bedrooms, garage space, and a terrace. However, it lacks a compelling view or distinctive historic charm, while several rooms are severely cluttered and the exterior needs attention, so it feels more like a practical bargain/project than a dream Italian home.
The listing and its photos show a house you can move into. Anything you spend beyond the price is your choice, not a repair.
- The gallery shows a livable furnished section, but also heavily cluttered rooms and areas needing cleanup or refurbishment.
- The building exterior, balconies, and terrace appear dated and weathered; structural and waterproofing condition should be checked.
- The listing is a pre-auction property, and the stated 703 m² area and zero bathrooms are inconsistent with the photos and description.
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.
