What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €25,000 (€231/m²), this 108 m² residential townhouse is far below the Puglia baseline of €714/m², but the condition is unspecified. Assuming €700/m² renovation, the effective cost is about €931/m², making it only a moderate deal until habitability and works are verified.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial, inexpensive townhouse with a pleasant elevated view toward hills and olive groves, and the terrace/balcony access adds practical appeal. The exterior appears roofed and usable rather than ruinous, but the home is visually ordinary and the lack of interior photos makes its real livability and renovation needs uncertain.
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€21,000 – €38,000
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.
- No interior photos, so the actual condition, kitchen, bathroom, heating, and move-in readiness cannot be verified.
- Access is through a shared stairwell, with an additional private entrance from the floor below.
- Urban townhouse setting with no visible private garden; the surrounding streets and façades look functional rather than picturesque.
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.
