At €1,978/m², this apartment is more than twice the local benchmark of €894/m²; allowing €200/m² for routine updating still produces an effective price around €2,178/m². The 2012 construction, two terraces, parking, cellar and location 2 km from the sea add appeal, but not enough to justify the premium.
More on the house and the area
A bright, clean, move-in-ready apartment with a modern open kitchen, usable bedroom spaces, and two terraces overlooking green Ligurian hills. It is attractive as a practical coastal-area home, but the interiors are fairly standard and the setting lacks a dramatic sea or historic view.
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€3,000 – €5,000
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.
- Compact 45 sqm layout, with limited living space.
- Energy class F may mean higher running costs.
- The views are leafy and pleasant rather than panoramic or iconic.
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 72/100The cluster sits on the lower Magra valley near the Ligurian coast, with the Montemarcello-Magra-Vara Regional Park within the area around the river mouth and the low hills above it. The Magra River is the main natural feature here, with the Ligurian Sea and the Gulf of La Spezia a few kilometres away. The nearest town of size is La Spezia, which has a full range of services, a railway junction and port facilities. Lerici and the villages around the east side of the gulf are nearby, and Tellaro is listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia. This part of eastern Liguria is known for the transition from river plain to olive and vineyard hills at the edge of the gulf, and for access to the Poets' Gulf coast.
