More on the house and the area
A tidy, fully-habitable ground-floor apartment with a modern kitchen and bathroom — perfectly usable but not photogenic. Good value for the price (garage/cellar mentioned) for someone wanting an inexpensive lived-in home in town, but it lacks views, character or outdoor space that would make it a true 'dream' property.
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€6,000 – €10,000
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.
- Plain, utilitarian interiors with no scenic views or historic character
- Very limited outdoor space (narrow terrace/resede) and ground‑floor light may be poor
- Sold at auction — verify occupancy, legal/urban regularity and any hidden costs
- No energy class shown; check heating/insulation and utilities before buying
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 43/100The area lies on the lower Arno plain, with flat farmland, drainage canals and the Arno river corridor nearby. Monte Pisano is the nearest distinct relief, visible to the west at the edge of the plain. Within this radius the main urban centre is Santa Croce sull’Arno and, just beyond, the wider Fucecchio–Santa Croce leather district, known for tanneries and associated industry. The Padule di Fucecchio wetland lies nearby and is the main natural feature of this part of the plain.
