In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €37,941 (€468/m²), the apartment is 14% below comparable stock, but allowing about €200/m² for a habitable condition puts the effective cost near €668/m², above the local €544/m² benchmark. The 2 km sea access and 28 photos help, though the listing is sparse and does not say how many bathrooms it has.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable-looking 81 sqm town apartment in a dense Campanian historic setting, with attractive old arches, masonry, balconies, and colorful shutters. However, it lacks a view, garden, or standout interior character, and the exterior appears worn rather than beautifully restored.
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 – €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.
- No interior photos are provided, so the stated habitable condition and kitchen cannot be visually verified.
- The exterior shows significant weathering, peeling finishes, and aging balconies that may require refurbishment.
- The listing records zero bathrooms; confirm the actual bathroom layout and utilities.
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 90/100The cluster lies on the plain and lower slopes immediately around Mount Vesuvius. Mount Vesuvius and its crater and slopes are inside Parco Nazionale del Vesuvio and fall within the local 15 km radius. The Gulf of Naples (Tyrrhenian Sea) is the nearest coast. The UNESCO World Heritage archaeological sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum (Ercolano) are within the same area. The Circumvesuviana local rail network serves nearby Pompei, Ercolano and Torre Annunziata. Pompei has the major archaeological park of Pompeii and a railway station; Ercolano hosts the Herculaneum archaeological site; Torre Annunziata is a coastal town with port facilities and a railway station. The area is part of the Naples metropolitan area and includes peri‑urban and industrial zones on the plain around the volcano. The area is historically and agriculturally associated with vineyards and wines labelled Vesuvio DOC grown on volcanic soils. There are no ski lifts in the Vesuvius area.
