The listing explicitly says 'annesso agricolo', which is a veto red flag because it is not a standard legal dwelling. At €75,000 for 70 sqm (€1,071/sqm) plus heavy conversion/restoration risk, and after 3050 days on market, this is not a safe foreign-buyer home purchase.
More on the house and the area
This is a simple rural agricultural annex with some appealing olive trees and open countryside around it, but no real view or standout architectural charm. The building appears roofed yet very basic and unfinished, with no evidence of habitable interiors, so it reads as a project rather than a home you could actually move into. At this price near the Tuscan coast, the location helps, but the current livability is very 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€28,000 – €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.
- Agricultural outbuilding rather than a finished home
- No visible bathroom, kitchen or domestic interior
- Overgrown plot and neglected exterior
- Likely change-of-use / planning limitations for full residential living
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.
