What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
A €63,000 for 60 m², this country house needs renovation at an estimated €700/m², giving an effective cost of about €1,750/m² versus the Toscana/Arezzo baseline of €695/m². The private garden, garage, fireplace and substantial extra land add value, but the total effective cost is well above the low-stock baseline.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely livable Tuscan country house with a fireplace, balcony, private garden, and attractive views across wooded hills, set within a rustic stone borgo. The interiors are functional but very dated, so this is a renovation project rather than a polished dream home; the €63,000 price and more than 2 hectares of additional land add appeal.
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€12,000 – €21,000
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.
- The house is explicitly sold as needing renovation, with dated finishes and visible moisture or plaster wear.
- Access appears to be via a steep gravel lane, and the additional agricultural and woodland parcels are detached from the home.
- Utilities, heating, insulation, and the condition of the roof should be verified.
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 55/100This cluster is in the built-up area of Arezzo, so the immediate surroundings are an inland city on the plain at the edge of the Val di Chiana rather than open countryside. The Casentino and Pratomagno ranges are visible within the wider area, and the Arno valley lies nearby. Arezzo itself is the nearest town of size and has a substantial historic centre with medieval and Renaissance buildings, including Piazza Grande and major churches and museums. The city is known for goldsmithing, antiques, and the Giostra del Saracino.
