What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €526/m², the €50,000 price is below the €650/m² baseline, but the house needs internal renovation estimated at about €66,500, producing an effective cost near €1,226/m². The shared-garden access and servitude, need to create an independent entrance, agricultural annex, and unspecified condition materially weaken the deal.
More on the house and the area
A genuine, usable Tuscan townhouse with a leafy garden, mature trees, and attractive rolling countryside views. The old-style shutters, terrazzo floors, and large wood-burning range add lived-in character, although the interiors and exterior need cosmetic modernization rather than a full rebuild.
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€19,000 – €34,000
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.
- Interior is sound but dated and needs updating.
- The garden is partly shared, and the current access relies on an easement.
- Creating independent street access may require building three or four steps and confirming permissions.
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 68/100The cluster lies in the Casentino, the upper Arno valley, with the first ridges of the Tuscan-Romagnolo Apennines close by. The Arno runs through Subbiano. The Casentino Forests National Park begins a short distance to the northeast, covering the Apennine ridge with extensive beech and fir woods. The nearest substantial town is Arezzo, which has a full range of services and a major historic centre. The area is known for wooded valley scenery, small castles and parish churches of the Casentino, and for routes up toward the Passo della Consuma and the Camaldoli and La Verna side of the Apennines.
