Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The description says the existing building is 'fatiscente da demolire e ricostruire', so this is effectively a tear-down/rebuild rather than a normal renovation project. With ~€1,100/m² rebuild cost, effective cost is about €235,000 total (~€1,567/m²), far above the €627/m² baseline despite the decent Bari location near services and 5 km from the sea.
More on the house and the area
This is not a charming old house in usable condition but essentially a rebuild opportunity on a central urban plot. The attractive images are only concept renderings; the real property shown is a shabby, low-rise structure with little visible character and no proven livable interior. At €70k for 150 sqm in Bari there is some bargain appeal, but as a home to dream of living in today, the wow is low.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€59,000 – €88,000
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.

The area around
Location score 55/100This is inside the built-up area of Bari, a large Adriatic port city.
