Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €519/m², the €95,000 asking price is well below the €700/m² local benchmark, although allowing roughly €36,600 for modest updating brings the effective cost close to market level. The medieval village setting, 183 m² size, terrace and strong photo coverage are positives; the listing does not specify the exact condition or energy performance.
More on the house and the area
A remarkably characterful, fully furnished Tuscan mountain-village home with extensive exposed beams, traditional terrazzo floors, a fireplace, stone-covered terrace, and sweeping wooded mountain views. The interiors appear clean, complete, and immediately livable rather than project-like, with a genuine old-house atmosphere and ample space. Its main practical drawbacks are the single bathroom and potentially challenging hillside access.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Only one bathroom is listed for a relatively large six-bedroom home.
- The steep hillside setting and village access may be less convenient for anyone needing flat, easy access.
- The gallery does not confirm heating, utilities, or recent structural/roof upgrades.
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 72/100The cluster is in the Serchio valley with the Apuan Alps to the west and the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines close by to the east. The Serchio river runs through this part of the valley. Much of the surrounding area falls within or beside the Alpi Apuane Regional Park. The nearest ski area is Abetone on the Apennine side, roughly 1 to 1.5 hours by road depending on the exact hamlet. Barga is the nearest small town of note, with a substantial historic centre, and Lucca is the nearest larger town with full services and major monuments. Coreglia Antelminelli is listed among I Borghi più belli d'Italia. This area is known for wooded mountain slopes, hill villages, and for the long-standing plaster figurine tradition of Coreglia.
