What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €416/m², this habitable 190 m² townhouse is priced well below the local comparison level of €714/m²; allowing roughly €38,000 for updates gives an effective cost of about €616/m². The ground-floor layout, garage, terrace, cellar and 21 photos support a strong value proposition, though it is 8 km from the sea rather than coastal.
More on the house and the area
A substantial, well-maintained Salento townhouse with attractive vintage terrazzo floors, traditional wooden doors, a fireplace, garage, and outdoor potential. It appears structurally sound and genuinely habitable, but the presentation is plain and the kitchen still needs fitting out, so this is more a practical blank canvas than a dream-home showstopper.
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€13,000 – €21,000
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.
- The kitchen appears to be only tiled and plumbed, without cabinets or appliances.
- The interiors are clean and habitable but largely empty and dated, with extensive terrazzo flooring and older fixtures.
- There is only one visibly completed bathroom, despite the description suggesting potential for two.
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 72/100The area sits in the lower Salento plain, with low limestone countryside, olive groves and dry-stone field boundaries. The Ionian coast is about 8 km away, with the nearest seaside stretch around Tricase Porto and Marina Serra on a rocky shore. The Adriatic side of Santa Maria di Leuca is also within roughly 15 km, where the peninsula narrows toward the cape. Specchia is officially listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia, and the wider area is known for Salento stone villages, olive cultivation and dry-stone rural buildings.
