In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
150 m² house asking €70,000 with habitable condition and roof in order; I estimate €200/m² for modest works (≈€30,000), so effective price ≈€100,000 (~€667/m²), marginally above the regional median of €659/m². Good points: independent gas heating, garden, six cellars and 33 photos; the listing does not claim a full renovation or state energy class.
More on the house and the area
A solid, habitable Tuscan village house with pleasant hill views, deep-window sills and traditional terracotta/stone floors — a real lived‑in home rather than a ruin. Good roof, cellar space, courtyard and garden make it very usable now, but the kitchen/bathrooms and finishes need modernising.
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€10,000 – €17,000
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.
- Interiors are dated and will need cosmetic updating (kitchen and bathrooms look old).
- No energy class shown; heating exists but expect modest insulation and older windows.
- Access involves external courtyard/stairs which may affect convenience.
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 62/100The cluster sits in the lower Lunigiana, with the northern Tuscan Apennine ridges close by and the Magra valley as the main landscape feature. The Magra river runs through this part of the province, and the valley is broken by wooded slopes and small hill settlements. The A15 corridor and Pontremolese route pass through the wider valley, so daily life is tied to the plain around Aulla, which is the nearest town of size with rail links, services and supermarkets. The nearest Ligurian coast is around La Spezia and Marinella di Sarzana, but the sea is outside the 15 km landscape radius and does not set the score. Lunigiana is known for scattered stone villages and castles, and Tresana itself has a castle on its hill.
