See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction with a €54,490 asking price (€358/m²), but the description says the 152 m² property requires renovation despite the listed condition being “Renovated.” The auction status is a veto red flag, so the score is capped in the trap range.
More on the house and the area
This has strong dream-home ingredients: a traditional trulli section, a large rural plot, a pool and oven near Martina Franca for around €54,500. However, the property requires restructuring and its actual interiors, condition, utilities and visual appeal are not shown, so it is currently a renovation project rather than a ready-to-live-in Italian home.
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€30,000 – €53,000
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 property requires renovation, with no confirmed bathrooms, kitchen, heating, or usable utilities.
- The listing states that images may be indicative and may not represent the actual property.
- Judicial-auction purchase requires careful review of the appraisal, legal status, and possible renovation costs.
- The trulli section, pool, oven, and 5,327 m² of land are attractive but not visually documented in the supplied gallery.
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.
