What it really costs

The 47 m² trullo is completely to restore, bringing the estimated total cost to about €120,700, or €2,568/m² versus €825/m² for comparable local homes. Sea frontage, a 7,640 m² plot, and a well add appeal, but the restoration premium is substantial and the listing does not say whether the building is currently habitable.
More on the house and the area
The setting is genuinely striking: a large plot directly beside the sea, with open countryside and a traditional trullo structure. However, the trullo is a restoration project rather than a livable home, so the superb location cannot lift it into dream-home territory.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€18,000 – €28,000
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.
- The 47 sqm trullo is completely to be restored and is not currently habitable.
- There is no bathroom, kitchen, or usable interior shown; substantial construction work will be required.
- Verify planning permission, building rights, utilities, shoreline restrictions, and the status of the well.
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.
