Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
The €54,000 asking price is attractive at €365/m², and the property is only 4 km from the sea. However, it needs renovation: estimated all-in cost rises to about €1,065/m², well above the €646/m² local reference.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial independent Salento house with 148 sqm, a large paved forecourt, garage, terrace, and a pleasant view toward olive groves. It appears to be a solid, roofed residential building rather than a ruin, but the weathered exterior and “da ristrutturare” description indicate meaningful renovation is needed before it becomes a beautiful, comfortable home.
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€29,000 – €52,000
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 property is explicitly described as needing renovation, with visible facade, balcony, and terrace wear.
- All photos show only the exterior, so the condition of the interiors, kitchen, bathrooms, roof, and utilities is unverified.
- It sits directly on a fairly busy road, which may mean traffic noise and limited privacy.
- The attractive olive-grove outlook is across the road rather than private land belonging to the house.
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 61/100This is the Salento plain a few kilometres inland from the Ionian coast, with low agricultural land of olive groves and vineyards around Gallipoli. The nearest coast is the Gulf of Taranto at Gallipoli and Rivabella, with beaches and a low rocky shoreline within a short drive. Gallipoli is the nearest town of size, with a walled old town on an island linked to the mainland, a fishing port and full everyday services. The area is known for Salento wine and olive cultivation.
