At €22,500 for 41 m², the purchase price is attractive, but allowing about €8,200 for light habitable-condition work brings the effective cost to roughly €749/m², close to the local €729/m² reference. The apartment has autonomous heating and 21 photos, making it a reasonably priced, credible option rather than an exceptional bargain.
More on the house and the area
A small, ordinary Tuscan home with a usable-looking exterior, garden, olive trees, and an attractive rural setting near Reggello. The very low price and stated habitable condition make it appealing for a budget-minded buyer, but the lack of interiors and unclear bathroom provision significantly reduce confidence.
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€3,000 – €5,000
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.
- No interior photos are provided, so the claimed habitable condition cannot be verified visually.
- The listing records 0 bathrooms, which needs urgent clarification.
- The exterior is modest rather than architecturally distinctive; views appear pleasant but not spectacular.
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.
