In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €70,000, the villa costs €424/m², and about €103,000 after a modest habitable-home allowance, or €624/m²—well above the local comparison level of €252/m². Its sea proximity and 47 photos help, but the brief listing does not say the construction year or energy class, and the price is not compelling despite the location.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely habitable 165 sqm home with a superb, wide sea-and-hills view, which gives it strong dream-home appeal. The interiors are spacious, furnished, and functional, though dated rather than stylish; the street-facing facade needs refreshing. Overall, it is a real home with an exceptional setting, not a renovation shell.
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€11,000 – €18,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- The exterior facade shows significant weathering and maintenance needs.
- Energy performance and heating details are not provided.
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 67/100The Tyrrhenian coast is within the local landscape here, with beaches and the shoreline around Cittadella del Capo and the Bonifati marina area. Inland, the first ridges of the Calabrian Coastal Range rise quickly behind the coast. The lower valley of the Fiume Esaro is nearby. Belvedere Marittimo is the nearest larger coastal town, with a seafront, marina and a substantial historic centre on the hill above. This stretch of coast is known for small seaside resorts backed by steep inland hills and for citron cultivation in the upper Tyrrhenian part of Calabria.
