At €1,081/m² before completion works, the effective cost is roughly €1,631/m², well above the €616/m² local cheap-home benchmark. The house has completed structural work and is in an advanced renovation phase, but the remaining completion scope and final costs are not specified.
More on the house and the area
The exposed stone walls, traditional timber beams and terracotta roof structure offer genuine Tuscan character. However, this remains a substantial renovation project rather than a usable home: interiors are raw, flooring and services appear incomplete, and no finished living spaces are shown.
Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €550/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€17,000 – €30,000
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.
- Advanced renovation is still incomplete, with unfinished floors, exposed reinforcement and raw masonry.
- No finished kitchen or bathroom is shown, so the home is not currently move-in ready.
- The private garden is described but not visible in the photo gallery; renovation costs and utilities should be verified.
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 55/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Pistoia, so the setting is an urban plain at the foot of the Pistoiese Apennines rather than open countryside. The Ombrone Pistoiese crosses the city. The mountains rise to the north toward the Montagna Pistoiese, but they are outside the immediate urban setting. Pistoia itself has a substantial historic centre with the Romanesque church of San Giovanni Fuorcivitas, the Cathedral of San Zeno and Piazza del Duomo. The city is known for its nursery industry.
