Estimated finishing ≈ €700/m² → renovation ≈ €136,500, so effective price ≈ €221,500 (~€1,136/m²) versus regional median €534/m²; the all-in price is well above local norms so this looks overpriced. The listing also omits room/bed/bath counts.
More on the house and the area
The carved stone rooms and vaulted ceilings are very characterful and the structure/solai appear recently repaired, but the interior is a raw shell. Great affordable project for someone who wants to finish a distinctive Puglian home, not for immediate occupation.
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€39,000 – €69,000
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.

- Sold 'allo stato grezzo' — interior finishes, floors, bathrooms/kitchen and building systems are not installed.
- No visible fixtures or utilities; budget for plumbing, electrical and permits is required.
- Not move-in ready: this is a renovation project despite solid structure and rebuilt solai.{}
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 50/100The area around Grottaglie is the inland side of the Taranto plain, with vineyards, olive groves and low limestone ground rather than marked relief. The Mar Piccolo and the Ionian coast are outside the immediate 15 km radius, so they matter more for access than for the lived landscape. Taranto is the nearest large city, with port functions, services, rail links and major archaeology in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale. Grottaglie is known nationally for its long ceramics tradition and its pottery quarter.
