The listing explicitly describes a 25 m² “annesso,” an accessory/agricultural structure rather than a legally habitable home, together with 500 m² of land. At €59,000 (€2,360/m²), it is not a valid dwelling deal despite the sea being 2 km away.
More on the house and the area
A cozy, well-kept wooden retreat with a genuinely attractive covered terrace, productive garden, and about 500 sqm of private fenced land. The kitchen, bathroom, finished floors, and furnished interior make it appear usable rather than a renovation shell, though the tiny 25 sqm footprint keeps it in the charming hideaway category rather than dream-home territory.
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€10,000 – €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.
- Very compact at 25 sqm, with limited living and storage space.
- As an annexe/farm structure, its residential legality and permitted use should be verified.
- The photos do not prove the advertised pool or a sea view.
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 68/100On the Tuscan Tyrrhenian coast with sandy bathing beaches and a seafront oriented to tourism. Coastal pine woods (pinete) occur along parts of the shoreline close to the town. The town has a marina/porto turistico and a built seafront with bathing establishments that operate seasonally. Inland within about 15 km the landscape is the low Maremma plain with Mediterranean scrub, olive cultivation and low coastal hills further east. No significant mountains or ski facilities lie within 15 km. There is a railway station on the Pisa–Rome coastal line and road access via the SS1 (Aurelia). The nearest provincial capital is Grosseto to the south, which provides larger hospital and administrative services. The area is locally identified as part of the Tuscan Maremma coast and is known for seaside tourism and bathing; there is no national park or UNESCO landscape inside the 15 km radius.
