Why this price is what it is

The €25,000 asking price looks low, but this is a 130 m² ruin described as entirely to be rebuilt. At an estimated €1,100/m² renovation cost, the effective total is about €168,000 (€1,292/m²), far above the local €236/m² benchmark; the 1 km distance from the sea only modestly improves the appeal.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

The old façade, balcony, weathered stonework, and decorative details offer some historic character and a clear restoration vision. However, this is explicitly a 130 m² rudere da ricostruire, with major structural and roof work needed, so it is a building project rather than a realistically usable home.

Comfortable€600–900/m²
€78,000 – €117,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

€156,000 – €195,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€51,000 – €76,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Genuine ruin requiring complete reconstruction, not a move-in home.
  • Roof structures appear severely damaged or missing, with exposed masonry and debris.
  • No usable interiors, kitchen, bathroom, utilities, or habitable living areas are shown.

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 55/100

This cluster lies in the built-up area of Reggio Calabria on the Strait of Messina, with the Aspromonte massif rising inland within the same local landscape. The Strait is the defining water feature, and the nearest beaches are on the Ionian and Tyrrhenian sides of the metropolitan area. Aspromonte National Park begins inland and frames daily views from the city side, but from this location a resident lives primarily in an urban fabric rather than in open mountain country. Reggio Calabria is the main city of the area and has a seafront, ferry links across the strait, the National Archaeological Museum with the Riace Bronzes, and the main services of a provincial capital. The area is known for the strait setting between Calabria and Sicily and for bergamot cultivation in the wider province.
