What it really costs

Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €75,000 (€1,027/m²), the apartment is already about 41% above the local €730/m² benchmark; allowing roughly €200/m² for unspecified works brings the effective cost to about €1,227/m². It has 29 photos, terraces and described quality finishes, but the listing does not say whether it is recently renovated, and its energy class is G.
More on the house and the area
A highly usable, move-in-ready apartment with a warm, carefully finished interior, custom wood kitchen, attractive brick arch, terraces, and leafy hillside views. It feels like a genuine home rather than a renovation project, though the setting is residential and the energy rating is weak.
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€5,000 – €8,000
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.
- Energy class G suggests potentially high heating costs.
- The listing is an apartment, so outdoor space appears to be terraces rather than private garden.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a three-bedroom layout.
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 72/100The area lies on the western side of the Pratomagno massif, with wooded slopes and cultivated hills between the Arno valley and the lower Apennine ridges. The Arno runs nearby in the valley below. Part of the municipality reaches into the Foreste Casentinesi, Monte Falterona e Campigna National Park. The nearest larger town is Figline Valdarno in the Arno valley, with rail services, shops and everyday services; Florence is farther west beyond the Valdarno. The area is known for olive groves and for the Abbey of Vallombrosa in the forested uplands.
