Habitable immediately, but the estimated all-in cost is about €102,000, or €1,200/m², versus roughly €659/m² for comparable homes in the area. The characteristic village setting, garden and terrace add appeal, but the price remains high for an energy class G townhouse 26 km from the sea.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely livable Tuscan village townhouse with attractive hill views, exposed ceiling beams, a working fireplace, solid floors, a fitted kitchen, and a complete bathroom. The interiors are somewhat old-fashioned rather than stylish, but the home appears well maintained and usable immediately, with the character and setting doing much of the dreaming work.
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€6,000 – €9,000
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.
- Dated kitchen, bathroom, and decorative finishes may need modernization.
- The house is spread over multiple levels with steep stairs; accessibility is limited.
- Energy class G suggests higher heating and cooling costs.
- Only one bathroom is currently shown, although a second may be possible upstairs.
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 55/100The cluster is in the plain east of Lucca between Monte Pisano to the south and the first hills that rise toward the Pizzorne plateau and the Apennine foothills to the north-east. The Serchio basin shapes the wider landscape around Lucca, with canals and farmland across the plain. Lucca is the nearest substantial town and has a complete walled historic centre, rail links and full services. Within this area are a number of Lucchesi villas and estate landscapes, especially around Marlia and Segromigno, for which this part of Capannori is known. The Piana di Lucca is known for mixed agriculture, nurseries, villas and suburban settlement spread along local roads.
