What it really costs

Not before the basics are done
In the listingNeeds renovationSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €590/m² before works, the asking price is already above comparable local levels; restoring the 50 m² ruin could add roughly €55,000, bringing the effective cost near €1,690/m². The historic-center location and immediate proximity to the sea add appeal, but the extensive renovation makes this weak value.
More on the house and the area
The historic-center setting is photogenic, with weathered façades, local stonework, and a beautifully paved lane near the sea. However, this is explicitly a rudere to be completely renovated, so it is a restoration project rather than a realistically livable home today.
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€20,000 – €29,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

The area around
Location score 55/100This is on the Ionian coast at Crotone, with long low shoreline and the mouth area of the Esaro river nearby. The Capo Rizzuto Marine Protected Area begins south of the city, with rocky coast, coves and clear water around Le Castella within about 15 km. Crotone is a city with a port, seafront, services and the remains of the Greek Hera Lacinia sanctuary at Capo Colonna just south of the built-up area. The urban cap applies because the cluster is inside a city above 50,000 residents.
