What it really costs

Can you move in?

Livable, but something basic is worn out

Why this price is what it is

At €70,000 for 150 sqm, the ask is €467/sqm; assuming a habitable-condition refresh of about €200/sqm, the effective cost is ~€667/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €423/sqm, so it does not screen as cheap. Being a few meters from the sea helps, but 3154 days on market is a major negative and caps confidence.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

This is a real, usable home: large, furnished, with kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and a generous covered terrace, so it looks genuinely habitable now. The best wow comes from being a few metres from the sea with a visible sea outlook and lots of outdoor space, but the house itself is modest and dated rather than beautiful. At €70k for 150 sqm near the coast, the value helps the appeal.

Updating, not renovation
€30,000 – €43,000

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€10,000 – €17,000

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
  • Interiors are dated and fairly plain rather than characterful.
  • Sea view is partial, with nearby buildings in front.
  • Exterior is utilitarian and not especially pretty.

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 82/100

The area is on the Ionian coast at the foot of the Aspromonte. The Fiumara Amendolea reaches the sea here, and the lower valley opens inland toward the Greek-speaking Bovesia villages. Aspromonte National Park begins inland on the mountain side, within this radius. Bova, on the slopes above the coast, is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia and this part of the area is known for Grecanic culture and bergamot in the Reggio Calabria coastal belt. The nearest larger city is Reggio Calabria, which provides the main range of services and port and airport connections.
