This is explicitly an auction listing ("ASTA IMMOBILIARE"), which is an automatic veto for this catalog despite the low €575/m² asking price. The text also reports non-sanable/sanable building irregularities and part of the property is occupied under a 4+4 lease, adding concrete legal/possession risk.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house with strong Tuscan character: exposed brick, vaulted entry, beam ceilings and a handsome fireplace give it genuine atmosphere. The exterior is simple rather than spectacular, and there is no photo-proved view, but the home looks solid and lived-in rather than a shell. At this price for Montepulciano, the value effect is significant, though legal/occupancy issues matter.
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€9,000 – €15,000
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.
- Street-facing setting with no proved scenic view
- Interiors are habitable but somewhat dated/dark
- Building irregularities are mentioned, some not sanabili
- Part of the property appears occupied under lease
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 85/100Montepulciano sits on the ridge landscape of the Val di Chiana and close to the Val d’Orcia, with cultivated hills, cypress lines and scattered farmhouses within the surrounding countryside. The Val d’Orcia UNESCO World Heritage landscape begins just to the west around Pienza and San Quirico d’Orcia. Lake Montepulciano lies just east of town, with reed beds and the Riserva Naturale Lago di Montepulciano. The nearest larger centres are Chiusi and Chianciano Terme, while Siena is the main city in the wider area. Montepulciano itself is a substantial historic hill town with Renaissance palaces and is known for Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Pienza, within the same local hill country, is UNESCO-listed for its historic centre.
