At €92,418 (€825/m²), this habitable 112 m² apartment with garage, terrace, cellar and heating is priced well above the local €600/m² reference. Allowing roughly €22,400 for ordinary habitable-condition work puts the effective cost near €1,025/m², so the amenities do not offset the premium.
More on the house and the area
A solid, genuinely usable 112 sqm apartment with multiple balconies and practical extras including a garage and cellar. However, the building and interiors are conventional and dated, with no visible view, garden, or memorable Italian character to create a strong dream-home effect.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- The interiors are clearly habitable but dated, cluttered, and likely need cosmetic updating.
- This is a dense urban apartment with no visible scenic view, garden, or distinctive historic character.
- The listing states a garage, cellar, balconies, and terrace, but their size and usability are not clear from the photos.
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 42/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Bitonto, so the immediate setting is an urban edge in the olive plain north-west of Bari. The Adriatic coast is nearby, with the seafront at Santo Spirito and Giovinazzo the closest coastal reference. The nearest larger city is Bari, which provides the main rail links, port, airport and services for the area. Bitonto is known for its Romanesque old town and for olive growing, with much of the surrounding countryside planted in olive groves.
