What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €1,273/m², the €70,000 asking price is already 88% above the €678/m² regional baseline before accounting for likely renovation of this old stone farmhouse. The condition is unspecified, the description is truncated, and only one photo is provided, making the true effective cost uncertain.
More on the house and the area
This is a characterful old Tuscan stone casale in a very private, green setting, with 4,450 m² of land and authentic rural atmosphere. However, the single exterior photo shows a weathered, likely renovation-dependent property rather than a clearly move-in-ready 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€11,000 – €20,000
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 exterior appears heavily neglected, with peeling plaster, closed/boarded openings and overgrown surroundings.
- Interior condition, utilities, kitchen and bathroom usability are not shown.
- The property includes substantial land, but access and maintenance requirements should be checked.
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 72/100This is inland Maremma on the tuff country around the Fiora valley, with cultivated hills, woods and ravines rather than a plain. The Albegna and Fiora river valleys shape the area. Semproniano is close to the inland tuff towns of Pitigliano and Sorano, both with extensive historic centres cut into volcanic rock. Saturnia and the thermal springs of Cascate del Mulino are within the local area. Mount Amiata rises to the northeast and is the main mountain mass seen in this part of southern Tuscany, but the ski lifts are on Amiata, roughly an hour away, so they are outside the immediate landscape. The wider area is known for tuff settlements, thermal waters, olive groves and inland Maremma countryside.
