What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €85,000 plus an estimated €22,000 renovation allowance, the effective price is about €973/m² versus the Liguria country-house baseline of €500/m², so it is not a discount. The sea is only 4 km away and the property has a garden and terrace, but condition and key technical details are missing.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely livable Ligurian country home with a charming brick arch, working fireplace, exposed-stone detail, equipped kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms. The terraced garden and hillside setting offer greenery, privacy, and views toward the surrounding landscape, though the exterior is rustic and the interiors are more practical than beautifully finished.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated and would benefit from cosmetic updating.
- Outdoor areas and garden are rustic, with uneven paving and numerous steps.
- The hillside setting may mean limited car access and challenging mobility.
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 77/100The Apuan Alps rise immediately inland, with the marble mountains around Carrara visible within the local landscape. The Magra plain and the lower Magra River are part of the area, and the Ligurian Sea shore is a few kilometres away at Marinella and the Gulf of La Spezia side of the coast. The Montemarcello-Magra-Vara Regional Park is within the area, covering the lower Magra, wetlands and the promontory above Bocca di Magra and Tellaro. The nearest larger town is Carrara, which has full services and is known for marble; La Spezia is the other main urban centre for daily services and rail links. The archaeological area of Luni, with the remains of the Roman colony and amphitheatre, is a defined historic feature of the immediate area. The area is known for the meeting of coast, river plain and marble mountains, and for marble quarry country just inland.
