In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €58,000 (€504/m²), the asking price is slightly below comparable local stock, but estimated modernization brings the effective cost to about €81,000 (€704/m²), above the €524/m² reference. The semi-central location, 200 metres from the historic centre, and habitable condition add value, though the property still needs updating.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely livable Puglian home with beautiful double-vaulted ceilings, traditional stone flooring, an ornate fireplace, and strong historic character. It is furnished and usable now, though the kitchen, bathroom, and some finishes need cosmetic modernization rather than a major renovation.
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€8,000 – €13,000
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 kitchen and bathroom are dated and need modernization.
- Only one bathroom is shown for a five-room home.
- No notable view or substantial private outdoor space is evident.
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.
