Why this price is what it is

The description explicitly says the property includes a 'locale ad uso deposito' of about 100 sqm, so there is a serious risk it is not legally a dwelling as listed. Baseline data are weak, and despite the very low asking price of €143/sqm, the legal-use red flag overrides value.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

The setting has big open-country views and genuine privacy, with a solid standalone house that appears roofed and usable rather than a ruin. But visually it is quite plain, and without interior photos it reads more as a practical rural property than a dreamy Italian home. The low €/m² and large plot help, yet the wow comes mainly from space and isolation, not character.

Minimum to live in it350500/m²
€245,000 – €350,000

Certified wiring, water and drainage, a heat source, a roof that keeps the water out, one working bathroom. Facade, insulation, a second bathroom and the floors wait.

Comfortable
€420,000 – €630,000

All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.

Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.

€840,000 – €1,050,000

Turnkey, facade and insulation included.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€139,000 – €246,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • Only exterior/drone photos: interior condition and actual livability are unproven
  • Looks more functional than beautiful, with plain modern/rural styling
  • Outdoor areas are dry and sparse rather than landscaped
  • Rural dirt-road access and isolated setting may limit convenience

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 55/100

This is on the Murgia plateau above the Gravina di Matera, the deep limestone ravine that cuts the edge of the city. The Parco della Murgia Materana lies immediately across the ravine, with rupestrian churches, rocky pasture and karst terrain. Matera is the nearest town of size and has the Sassi districts and the rock-cut settlement on the ravine edge; Matera is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The area is known for the Sassi, ravine landscapes and rock-cut churches of the Lucanian Murgia.
