What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €778/m², the asking price is already above the €678/m² Puglia baseline, and with renovation still underway, estimated total costs reach about €1,478/m² (€133,000 effective). The 200 m² garden and residential designation add value, but the missing condition and unclear renovation scope make this a weak deal.
More on the house and the area
The ornate stone façade, vaulted ceilings and traditional arches give this 90 sqm home genuine historic character, while the large rear garden is a strong bonus. However, it is currently a substantial renovation site rather than a livable home, with broken floors, unfinished walls and exposed systems.
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€18,000 – €32,000
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.
- Major renovation is clearly unfinished, with rubble, damaged floors and exposed services.
- Kitchen and bathroom appear not yet usable despite the proposed floor plan.
- No evidence of move-in readiness, utilities, or final structural/permit status.
- Urban setting with neighboring buildings and no scenic view shown.
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 57/100This is the inland Salento plain, with low agricultural land rather than mountain relief. The nearest sea within about 15 km is the Ionian coast around Gallipoli, with sandy shoreline and coastal pinewoods in that stretch. Cutrofiano sits in the central Salento area between Galatina and Maglie; Galatina is the nearest larger town and has a substantial historic centre and services. The area is known for olive groves, vineyards and traditional ceramic production.
