What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €95,000 for 90 m², the asking price is €1,056/m²; assuming habitable condition, effective cost is about €1,256/m² versus the Calabria townhouse baseline of €432/m². The sea location and garden add value, but the missing condition and energy data make this substantially overpriced.
More on the house and the area
A colorful, Mediterranean-style townhouse with an exceptionally lush private garden, generous paved terraces, balconies, and a rooftop solarium. The interior is a complete, furnished home with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a working kitchen, and no obvious major structural work needed, though the finishes are dated. At €95,000 and about 1 km from the sea, it offers strong lifestyle value despite lacking a dramatic view.
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€6,000 – €10,000
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 garden is substantial but visibly overgrown and will need regular maintenance.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated, especially the kitchen and bathroom.
- The property appears to have neighborhood views rather than a sea view.
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 81/100The cluster is on the Tyrrhenian coast of northern Calabria, with beaches on the Gulf of Policastro and the first ridges of the southern Apennines rising a short distance inland. The Lao River valley and the western edge of Pollino National Park are within about 15 km, giving a mix of coastal plain, rocky headlands and mountain backdrop in daily view. Scalea has a substantial historic centre on a hill, a seafront, marina services and summer-season tourism infrastructure. San Nicola Arcella and the Riviera dei Cedri coast are nearby, an area known for cedars, holiday beaches and small coves.
