What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
With condition not stated, I assume basically habitable at about €200/m² renovation, bringing the effective cost to roughly €1,096/m² (€69,000 + ~€15,400), versus a low-stock baseline of €892/m² in Puglia country houses. Garden and double garage help, but at only a small premium over this already-low baseline it looks more ordinary than a standout deal.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable home with standout vaulted ceilings, patterned floors and a sculptural fireplace that give it genuine southern Italian character. The actual condition looks solid and livable now, though the kitchen, bath and overall styling need updating to match the home's architectural charm. It lacks a romantic exterior or view, but at this price the interior bones create a strong dream-home effect.
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€5,000 – €9,000
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.
- Exterior is plain and urban, with no scenic setting or view.
- Several listing images are illustrative renders, not the actual finished furnishing.
- Courtyard/garden appears small and covered rather than a lush outdoor space.
- Bathroom and kitchen look dated and would benefit from modernization.
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.
