What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €98,000 for 62 m², the asking price is €1,581/m²; assuming a basically habitable condition from the description, the effective cost is about €1,781/m² including light works. That is far above this catalog’s Puglia country-house baseline of €740/m², though the location just 1.5 km from the sea supports some premium.
More on the house and the area
This is a usable small house near the sea, with simple rooms, a basic kitchen area and a very large roof terrace that adds some appeal. But the beauty is limited: the exterior is plain and tired, and the interiors are functional rather than charming. It feels more like a practical refresh project than a dream-home scroll stopper.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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 needs clear maintenance and likely roof/terrace waterproofing review.
- Interiors are habitable but very basic and dated.
- No sea view shown despite the near-coast location.
- Outdoor space is mostly hard-paved rather than garden-like.
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.
