The villa appears habitable and was modernized in 2010, but allowing roughly €18,000 for ordinary updating brings the effective cost to about €1,300/m²—well above the €500/m² local comparison level. Direct sea access, a 400 m² garden, parking and a pool add genuine value, but the asking price is not a standout bargain.
More on the house and the area
A genuine seaside villa with a generous private garden, mature hedges, olive tree, covered dining terrace, outdoor kitchen and parking. The house appears solid, maintained and realistically usable rather than a renovation shell, although the exterior is somewhat plain and the weathered paving needs attention.}ૉ กรุงเทพมหานครฯ?

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€6,000 – €10,000
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 gallery is overwhelmingly exterior-focused, so the condition and finish of the main interiors are not verified.
- Large stone-paved courtyard shows weeds and weathering, suggesting some maintenance is needed.
- Energy class F; the advertised pool is not visible in the photos.
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 55/100This is in the built-up area of Lecce, so the surroundings are urban rather than a rural landscape. The Adriatic coast is close, with the shore around San Cataldo and the low Salento plain behind it. Lecce is the main city of this part of Salento and has extensive Baroque architecture, full urban services, and major transport links. The area is known for Lecce Baroque and for the Salento peninsula more generally.
