What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €95,000 plus an estimated €12,000 for habitable-condition work, the effective price is about €1,783/m²—far above the local comparison level of €730/m². The central location, private courtyard and 1 km distance from the sea add value, but the listing has no photos and offers too little evidence to justify the premium.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
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 55/100On the Tyrrhenian coast, the cluster sits in the built-up area of Livorno, a port city with canals in the Venezia Nuova quarter, the Terrazza Mascagni seafront, the Medici fortifications and the port. The coast here is urban shoreline and harbour rather than a protected scenic stretch. To the south, within about 15 km, the Costa degli Etruschi begins around Quercianella with rocky coves on the Mar Ligure/Tyrrhenian. The nearest larger centre is Pisa, with the airport and the Piazza dei Miracoli, but it lies beyond the immediate 15 km landscape and does not affect the rating. Livorno is known for its port, seafood cuisine and the Accademia Navale.
