What it really costs
- Registered as agricultural or storage, not as a dwelling
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is currently a deposito/storage unit, not a dwelling; even if a change of use may be possible, the legal status today triggers a veto. At €18,000 for 30 sqm (€600/sqm) near the sea it looks cheap, but for this catalog the non-residential use outweighs the price.
More on the house and the area
There is real old-Puglia character here: thick stone walls, barrel/star-vaulted space and a huge rustic fireplace in a charming historic lane near the sea. But it is clearly a raw former deposito, not a livable house yet, so this is more atmospheric project than dream-home-as-is. The low price helps, but condition keeps the wow firmly capped.
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.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€6,000 – €11,000
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.
- Currently a storage space, not a ready home
- Full renovation and fit-out needed despite intact shell
- Only one raw room shown; no kitchen/finished bathroom visible
- Change of use to residential may be required
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 cluster lies in the lower Salento peninsula, with a flat to gently undulating karst landscape of olive groves and dry-stone walls. The Adriatic coast is close at Marina di Novaglie and the Ionian side is also nearby, so daily life is tied to a narrow peninsula between two seas. The Ciolo inlet near Gagliano del Capo is within the area, with a limestone coastal ravine and cliffs on the Adriatic. Santa Maria di Leuca, at the end of the peninsula, is the nearest larger coastal centre, with a port and year-round services. Alessano is in an area known for Salento rural landscapes, olive cultivation and coastal watchtowers.
