Why this price is what it is

At €213/m², the €42,600 asking price is below the local €269/m² reference, and the new roof, central location, terrace, and parking are positives. However, the condition and services are not stated, only one photo is provided, and allowing about €600/m² for the unspecified interior work raises the effective cost to roughly €813/m².

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

This is a substantial central country house with 200 sqm, six bedrooms, two bathrooms, a cellar, fireplace, balconies, and a rooftop terrace reportedly offering 360-degree views. The new roof and existing room layout suggest a real, potentially usable home rather than a ruin, but the lack of photos makes its beauty and current livability impossible to judge confidently.

Minimum to live in it€350–500/m²
€70,000 – €100,000

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, €600/m², falls in this band.

€240,000 – €300,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€40,000 – €70,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • The listing shows no actual property photos, so the interior, exterior character, and views cannot be verified.
  • Condition beyond the new roof and covering slab is unclear; renovation or modernization may be needed.
  • The claimed 360-degree terrace view and room layout should be confirmed in person.

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 73/100

The cluster is in the southern Apennines, with the Lucanian Apennine ridges around Lauria and the Monte Sirino massif within this radius. The Noce river valley runs through the area toward the Tyrrhenian coast. The southern edge of the Appennino Lucano Val d'Agri Lagonegrese National Park is near Lauria, and the inland mountain landscape around Sirino is part of the same protected system. The nearest ski area is Monte Sirino, with lifts above Lago Laudemio, roughly half an hour by road from Lauria. Maratea is the nearest well-known coastal town, with a historic centre and Tyrrhenian shore, but it lies beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. Lauria is known in Basilicata as a mountain town on the route between the inland Lucanian valleys and the Tyrrhenian side.
