Ma soprattutto ti sei reso conto che la tua abitazione al momento è invasa da scatoloni e oggetti che non hanno una collocazione precisa e che, quindi creano disordine, rubano spazio e tempo perché ti ritrovi sempre a dover mettere in ordine?

Why this price is what it is

The description presents the property primarily as a storage/deposit space rather than a legally habitable dwelling, triggering a veto risk. It also contradicts the facts on size (60 m² advertised versus 30 m² in the listing data), while renovation would raise the effective cost to roughly €2,133/m² using the factual size.

More on the house and the area
What the photos show

The townhouse has some old-town atmosphere in its narrow Puglian lane and traditional masonry, but there is no compelling view, garden, or standout interior. The property is essentially a rough storage cellar with no bathroom or kitchen, so it is a substantial project rather than a realistically livable cheap home.

Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.

Materials only, work you may do yourself€12,000 – €18,000

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.

Connections and paperworkabout €10,000

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.

What worries us about this house
  • This is presented primarily as a storage/deposit property, not a ready home.
  • No bathroom, kitchen, or bedroom is shown; the interior is a rough cellar with exposed wiring, tanks, barrels, and makeshift roof materials.
  • Significant renovation and legal/utility checks would be needed before residential use.

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.
