A ready-to-live-in 60 m² apartment for €59,000 implies an estimated all-in cost of about €1,183/m², roughly 32% above the €894/m² local comparison level. The 4 km distance to the sea, balcony, lift and excellent photo coverage add appeal, though energy class G and central heating limit the upside.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, move-in-ready Genova apartment with a practical layout, functioning kitchen, bathroom, lift access and a pleasant green hillside view. It is comfortable and usable rather than visually exceptional: the building is ordinary, the interiors are dated, and the outdoor space is compact.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
- Interiors are clean and usable but noticeably dated, especially the dark wood kitchen and furnishings.
- Energy class G and central heating may mean higher running costs.
- The outdoor space is a narrow balcony/terrace rather than a private garden, with dense neighboring buildings and retaining walls.
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 55/100The Ligurian Apennines rise immediately north of the city; local summits within about 15 km include Monte Fasce and Monte Figogna. Genova fronts the Ligurian Sea on the Golfo di Genova; the municipal coastline includes promenades and small pebble beaches in districts such as Boccadasse, Nervi and Corso Italia. The Bisagno River runs through the city from the Apennines to the sea. There are no alpine ski lifts within 15 km; the surrounding hills are served by local roads, trails, funiculars and hillside paths. The municipality contains a large commercial port with ferry and cruise terminals and extensive shipyard and logistics areas. Genova Cristoforo Colombo Airport (GOA) lies within the municipal area on the western side of the city. The historic centre is one of Europe's largest medieval centres and the Strade Nuove and the system of the Palazzi dei Rolli are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The urban fabric is dense and steep, with many narrow streets (caruggi), public elevators and funicular links between harbour and hillside neighbourhoods. The area is known for its maritime history, shipbuilding, the Aquarium of Genova, and local cuisine such as pesto alla genovese.
