Priced at 188 EUR/m2 vs regional median of 643, a 71% discount. 117m2 traditional Valle d'Itria home with authentic lamia and trullo, 6km from Martina Franca center, on a large exclusive lot. Needs complete renovation (est. ~800 EUR/m2), so total ~22k + ~94k = ~116k, still well below rebuilt market value. Part of a 3-unit building but with independent title/exclusive access, so ownership is clean. Fresh listing (5 days), 20 photos. Trullo/lamia features add appeal for private residence or tourist reception use. Main caveat is the full renovation burden and rural location; verify title and cadastral status.
More on the house and the area
A traditional Valle d'Itria property near Martina Franca featuring authentic lamia and trullo elements—the conical stone trullo roof visible in exterior photos is the standout wow feature. At €22,000 (€188/m²) for 117sqm it's a genuine bargain, though it needs total renovation. The exterior is time-worn and mold-stained, interiors are dilapidated with fallen plaster and dated furnishings. The trullo/lamia character and countryside setting give it real charm and B&B potential, but nothing here truly stops the scroll beyond the classic Puglian architectural draw.
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, €800/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€23,000 – €41,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.
