See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €65,000 plus an estimated €49,000 renovation, the effective cost is about €1,629/m², far above the €600/m² local comparison level. Its central Mola di Bari location, independent entrance, and immediate proximity to the sea add value, but the required renovation makes the asking price difficult to justify.
More on the house and the area
The home has some authentic character, especially the large arched openings, old wooden entrance door and remnants of patterned flooring. However, the interiors are bare, damp-looking and badly dated, with no usable kitchen and only a primitive bathroom, making this a renovation project rather than a ready home.
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€14,000 – €25,000
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.
- Substantial renovation is needed, including damp/plaster repairs, bathroom modernization and likely a new kitchen.
- The interior is currently not comfortably habitable and has very limited natural light.
- No garden, terrace or view is shown; this is a tightly built-up central-town property.
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 68/100The cluster is on the Adriatic coast, with a working waterfront and small coves along this stretch of shoreline. Polignano a Mare lies nearby and is built on limestone cliffs above the sea. Bari is the nearest large city and has a port, rail links, a university, major hospitals and a substantial historic centre. This part of the coast is known for fishing, cherries and olive groves.
