See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €89,000 plus an estimated €72,100 renovation budget, the effective cost is about €1,564/m² versus a local reference of €500/m². The 1,000 m² plot, garage, panoramic Valle d’Itria setting and 42 photos add value, but the listing does not say the actual condition and notes that renovation images are only illustrative.
More on the house and the area
A bright, fully established Puglian villa with generous paved outdoor spaces, a panoramic Valle d’Itria setting, and approximately 1,000 m² of cultivated land with vines, olive trees, and fruit trees. The house appears genuinely livable today, with a functioning kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms, air conditioning, garage, and covered veranda, though the interiors and finishes are old-fashioned rather than polished.
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€20,000 – €36,000
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 fully usable but distinctly dated and would benefit from cosmetic modernization.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high running costs.
- Rural water arrangements include a cistern and rural water network; confirm utility reliability and connection details.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a three-bedroom home.
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 84/100The area sits on the Murge plateau in the Valle d’Itria, with a karst landscape of low limestone ridges, dry-stone walls, olive groves, vineyards and scattered trulli and masserie. The nearest larger town is Martina Franca itself, which has an extensive historic centre with baroque and late-baroque churches and palaces and the main services for the area. Within about 15 km are Locorotondo and Cisternino, both well-known hill towns of the Valle d’Itria; Locorotondo is listed among I Borghi più belli d’Italia and has a bandiera arancione. The area is known for trulli, whitewashed hill settlements, capocollo di Martina Franca and wine and olive production.
