Terratetto 130 m² listed at €97,000; estimating €200/m² for a habitable property adds ≈€26,000, so effective ≈€123,000 (~€946/m²). That effective €/m² is ~44% above the local median €659/m², so it’s in decent condition but not a bargain given local prices.
More on the house and the area
A charming corner stone terratetto with original wooden beams, a wood-stove hearth and a large paved forecourt plus an accompanying ~200 m² garden/orto — very Tuscan and instantly photogenic. The property is lived-in and usable now but shows dated finishes and some plaster cracking, so expect cosmetic work rather than a full structural 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€9,000 – €14,000
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.
- Habitable but dated interior — cosmetic updating and some plaster/crack repairs visible.
- Heating is GPL (check running costs and fuel supply).
- Narrow/steep internal staircase and modest kitchen/bathroom finishes.
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 67/100The cluster is in the Mugello, at the meeting of the Sieve valley with the valleys that rise into the Tuscan-Romagnolo Apennines. The Monti del Mugello and the first Apennine ridges are within the local horizon, and the Foreste Casentinesi, Monte Falterona e Campigna National Park begins to the east on the high ground around Monte Falterona, the source area of the Arno. The Sieve river runs through Dicomano. Borgo San Lorenzo is the nearest larger town and has the main services of the Mugello; Florence is the main city used for higher-order services and rail connections. The area is known for mixed hill farming, woods and chestnut country typical of the Mugello and upper Sieve valleys.
