At €725/m², the asking price is about 62% above the local €447/m² benchmark before allowing roughly €200/m² for unspecified works. The 2 km distance from the sea, garden, pool and parking add value, but the listing does not state the condition, construction year or energy rating.
More on the house and the area
A substantial, move-in-ready townhouse with two independent living units, a leafy private garden, covered outdoor space, and multiple terraces. The interiors are practical and well maintained rather than exceptional, while the greenery and proximity to the beach provide the main lifestyle appeal.
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 – €15,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated and heavily furnished, with some storage clutter.
- No sea view is visible despite the coastal location; the outlook is mainly residential and green.
- The property appears to be two autonomous units within a residence, so condominium rules and costs should be checked.
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 58/100The cluster is on the Ionian coastal plain near the mouth of the Basento, with flat agricultural land and low coastal dunes. The Metaponto littoral is within the local area, with sandy beaches and pine woods behind parts of the shore. Bernalda has a substantial historic centre on higher ground, and Metaponto nearby has the archaeological area of the Greek colony of Metapontum with temple remains and museum collections. Matera is the nearest major city of note for services and rail connections. This part of Basilicata is known for agriculture on the coastal plain and for the Magna Graecia archaeological sites around Metaponto.
