What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €80,000 for 70 sqm, the ask is €1,143/sqm; assuming only light works/habitable condition from the description, the effective cost is about €1,343/sqm. That is far above the local baseline of €692/sqm for similar sub-€100k stock, with only modest positives from being an independent civil-category home with balcony and 9 photos.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable town house rather than a ruin: it has floors, doors, a bathroom, radiators, and decent ceiling height with a few simple vaulted details. But the charm is limited and the condition feels plain and slightly tired, needing refreshment and a kitchen installation before it feels appealing to live in. Overall it is serviceable rather than dream-inducing.
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 – €8,000
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.
- Interiors are very basic and unfurnished, with no fitted kitchen.
- Some visible damp/peeling and finishing work needed.
- Tiny balcony only; no terrace, garden, or meaningful outdoor space.
- No view or standout setting shown in the photos.
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 47/100Torremaggiore sits on the north Apulian plain at the foot of the first Subappennino Dauno hills. The Fortore river runs to the north of the town. The nearest larger centre is San Severo, which has rail connections and the main services of the area. Lucera, with its historic centre and the Swabian-Angevin fortress, is within the wider plain but outside the immediate surroundings. This part of the province is known for arable farming and olive groves.
