What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €100,000 and an estimated €700/m² renovation cost, the effective price is about €1,700/m² versus the €650/m² Toscana townhouse baseline. The location is attractive at 4 km from the sea and near central Massa, but the renovation burden and missing condition data make this weak value.
More on the house and the area
The house retains some authentic historic character through its exposed timber beams, old plaster, and patterned tiles. However, the gallery shows a dark, heavily deteriorated and cluttered property with serious moisture and ceiling problems, making it a major renovation project rather than a livable 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€20,000 – €35,000
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 renovation is required, including damp and severely deteriorated ceilings and roof timbers.
- The interiors are currently cluttered, dusty, and not suitable for occupation.
- No attractive view, garden, terrace, or exterior character is shown.
- Utilities, structural soundness, and the practical feasibility of creating three units need verification.
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 55/100The Apuan Alps rise immediately inland from Massa, with marble mountains and steep valleys visible from the urban area. The Frigido river crosses the town and reaches the Tyrrhenian near Marina di Massa. Part of the local mountain hinterland falls within the Parco naturale regionale delle Alpi Apuane. The nearest ski area is Careggine in Garfagnana, roughly an hour to an hour and a half away depending on the route, so it is not part of the immediate landscape. Massa itself is a provincial capital with full services and an old centre below the Malaspina castle. The area is known for the Apuan marble basin and for the coastal strip of Marina di Massa.
