- Land, with no house on it

The description is for a 2,500 sqm plot with a 40 sqm 'locale deposito' for agricultural/storage use, not a legal dwelling; the 2,000 sqm figure makes the listed €30/sqm meaningless for a house comparison. Despite being only 4 km from the sea, this is essentially land with an outbuilding, so it fails the livability test.
More on the house and the area
The olive trees and green hillside setting have some rural appeal, and the valley beyond is pleasant. But the photos show a plot with a simple deposit/garage structure rather than a usable home, with no habitable interiors or residential charm. As a living-in-Italy dream property, this reads as a project or hobby land more than a house.
The listing and its photos show a house you can move into. Anything you spend beyond the price is your choice, not a repair.
- This is primarily land with a 40 sqm storage building, not a real house.
- No bathroom or livable interior is shown.
- The structure looks basic/utility-grade and likely needs full conversion permits to become residential.
- Road access is easy, but the main-road setting and visible power line reduce the romance.
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

Much of the surrounding area falls inside the Cilento, Vallo di Diano e Alburni National Park. Agropoli is the nearest larger town and has a marina, rail station and full services. Castellabate is one of I Borghi più belli d'Italia, and the Cilento area is known for olive groves and Mediterranean scrub on hills descending toward the sea.
