Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €90,000 (€643/m²), the estimated effective cost is about €1,071/m² after allowing €200/m² for its stated good condition, well above the local €474/m² benchmark. The sea is only 4 km away and the home is in historic Badolato Superiore with a sea-view terrace, which supports the price but does not make it a standout bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial, apparently usable village home with terraces and an exceptional panorama over olive-covered hills to the Ionian Sea. Its historic Badolato setting, traditional tiled roofs, and dramatic hillside position create strong dream-home appeal, although the interiors and some exterior maintenance still need verification.
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€9,000 – €16,000
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 interior is not shown, so the claimed good condition and layout cannot be fully verified.
- The home is in a very narrow historic-center lane with limited vehicle access.
- Visible exterior wear includes aging roof tiles, exposed wiring, and deterioration beneath the balcony.
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 63/100The cluster is on the Ionian side of Calabria below the Serre Calabresi, with steep inland hills rising quickly from the coast. The Torrente Gallipari cuts a narrow valley here before reaching the Ionian Sea. The nearest larger centre is Soverato, which has beaches, a marina, shops and rail connections along the coast. Badolato is known for its preserved hill village and has been associated with hospitality projects for refugees and migrants. Within this stretch of coast there are long beaches and low modern seaside development at Badolato Marina, while the inland setting is a farmed and wooded hill landscape rather than a single protected or nationally named scenic feature.
