At €95,000 (€633/m²), this 150 m² farmhouse needs full renovation; at an estimated €1,100/m², the all-in cost is roughly €260,000 (€1,733/m²), well above the local €800/m² benchmark. The 7,390 m² agricultural land and fireplace add appeal, but the listing does not clearly establish the residential status or habitability of the storage areas.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial rural Puglian farmhouse surrounded by a very large plot, with mature trees, stone boundary walls, and some authentic older details such as timber shutters. However, the house appears uninhabitable in its current state, with deteriorated interiors and no clearly usable kitchen or bathroom, so it is a renovation project rather than a ready-to-live-in dream home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€59,000 – €88,000
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.
- Major renovation required; the property is explicitly sold as a house to renovate.
- Interiors are empty and worn, with no clearly usable kitchen or bathroom shown.
- Large agricultural land will require substantial clearing and ongoing maintenance.
- No notable sea, mountain, or village view is visible.
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 58/100This is the inland Salento plain. The Adriatic coast is the nearest coast, with the Otranto area and its rocky shoreline roughly within 15 km. Maglie is the nearest town of size and has the usual services, shops and rail connections; Lecce is the main city for higher-order services farther away. This part of Salento is known for olive groves, dry-stone walls and the local pietra leccese and carparo stone-working landscape.
