What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
The asking price is €682/m², essentially equal to the Puglia baseline of €678/m² before renovation. With condition unspecified and a vague, incomplete description, a conservative €700/m² renovation allowance makes the effective cost about €1,382/m²; 20 photos and only 6 days on market provide limited reassurance.
More on the house and the area
This is a substantial old Puglian house with attractive arched openings, patterned historic floors and a characterful internal courtyard. However, the interiors are heavily deteriorated with pervasive damp and outdated services, making it a serious renovation project rather than a move-in-ready dream home.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€22,000 – €39,000
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.
- Extensive damp, peeling plaster and visible moisture damage throughout.
- Bathroom and electrical/plumbing fittings appear very dated and likely need replacement.
- No finished kitchen is visible; substantial renovation is needed before comfortable occupancy.
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 is inside the built-up area of Bari, a large Adriatic port city. The Adriatic coast is the defining nearby feature, with the city waterfront and urban beaches closest to the cluster. Bari has a substantial historic centre, a major port, a university, rail links and full city services. The area is known for its role as the main city of central Puglia and for the Basilica di San Nicola in the old town.
