Asking €6,000 but estimated renovation ≈€700/m² → total ≈€49,400 (≈€797/m²), well above the local median of €265/m², so this is not a bargain. Listing has only 2 photos and no energy class provided.
More on the house and the area
Characterful two‑storey stone-front house with an original balcony that shows genuine historic charm. The structure appears intact but the exterior finish and likely the interior need substantial renovation, making this a realistic but not move‑in-ready project.
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€12,000 – €22,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

- Peeling façade and corroded balcony railings need repair
- Interior likely requires full renovation (kitchen, bathroom, wiring and plumbing)

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 53/100This is the lower inland side of the Lametino plain, with the Tyrrhenian coast around the Gulf of Sant’Eufemia about 10 km away. The Monte Reventino and the western Catanzaro uplands rise inland to the east and south-east. The Amato river basin is the main geographic structure of this part of the province. Lamezia Terme is the nearest town of size, with the area’s main rail junction and airport. This part of Calabria is known for olive groves, citrus and mixed agricultural land between the plain and the first hills.
