What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €69,000 (€1,190/m²), plus roughly €40,600 for the stated interior restoration, the effective cost is about €1,890/m² versus a local reference of €736/m². The roof and façade are renovated, but the listing provides few details and its zero-room facts conflict with the described kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, roofed and furnished apartment with a warm traditional Italian feel, original-style shutters, terrazzo flooring, and plenty of natural light. It appears usable but dated and in need of internal refurbishment, making it a practical Tuscan base rather than a dream-home showstopper.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€12,000 – €20,000
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 says the interiors need restoration, so it is not fully move-in ready.
- The photos show a basic, dated kitchen and no bathroom or exterior spaces.
- There is no proven special view, garden, or standout architectural feature.
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 58/100The cluster lies in the Valdarno, with the first ridges of the Chianti hills and the Pratomagno range within this radius, and the Arno is the main river of the area. The landscape around it is a mix of river plain, cultivated slopes, olive groves and wooded hills. The nearest larger centre is Florence, while Figline itself is a service town with a railway station, shops and everyday amenities. The wider area is known for wine and olive oil production, especially on the Chianti side of the valley.
