What it really costs
Can you move in?
Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Listed at €95,000 for 106 sqm (€896/sqm), but the description says completely to be renovated, so I estimate about €1,100/sqm renovation; effective cost is roughly €1,996/sqm, far above the local baseline of €729/sqm. Nice Salento location 9 km from the sea and good photo coverage help, but the asking price leaves little margin for a full restoration project.
More on the house and the area
This has real Salento character: soaring star-vaulted rooms, original fireplaces and a generous walled garden with mature trees. But it is not move-in ready at all: the house is empty, worn and visibly damp in places, with basic unfinished interiors and an outdated external bathroom setup. The dream is strong, yet today it is a renovation project rather than an immediately usable home.
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€42,000 – €62,000
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.

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 62/100This is the Salento plain, with low olive-growing countryside and little relief. The Adriatic coast is about 10 km away, with the nearest shore around Alimini and the Otranto area. The Alimini lakes lie within this radius near the coast. Otranto is the nearest town of size, with a fortified historic centre, port and services. The area is known for olive groves, Salento farmland and access to the Otranto coast.
