The €90,000 asking price is only €310/m², but the property requires a total renovation; at an estimated €1,100/m², the all-in cost reaches roughly €1,410/m² versus a local benchmark around €658/m². Much of the 290 m² comprises cellars, attics, laboratories and storage, with only one bathroom, so the effective living area may be substantially lower.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial old Tuscan village house with attractive original cementine floors, beams, traditional shutters, olive trees, garden space, and wooded-hills views. However, it is clearly a major renovation project rather than a ready-to-live-in home: the exterior is heavily weathered and the listing calls for total renovation, despite the main rooms and historic character remaining intact.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€115,000 – €170,000
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 property explicitly requires a total renovation.
- Only one bathroom is shown/listed for approximately 290 sqm.
- Exterior walls and secondary buildings show substantial damp, weathering, and deferred maintenance.
- The large upper-floor/attic areas and outbuildings may require major structural and utility work.
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 55/100Pistoia sits on the plain at the foot of the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines, with the first mountain valleys rising just to the north. The Ombrone Pistoiese crosses the area. The nearest larger centre is the city itself, which has a substantial historic centre, the Romanesque church of San Giovanni Fuorcivitas, the Ospedale del Ceppo and Piazza del Duomo. Pistoia is on the Via Francigena and its San Jacopo cult is linked to the Camino di Santiago tradition. The urban setting dominates the immediate surroundings more than any single named landscape feature within 15 km.
