Listed €85,000 for 130 m² (654€/m²); with a modest renovation estimate of €200/m² the effective cost is ~€111,000 or ~854€/m², about 33% above the Puglia baseline of €643/m². The listing omits condition/energy info and the text states ~100 m² (contradiction with the 130 m² fact).
More on the house and the area
A solid, high‑ceilinged town house with a huge, high‑walled private courtyard and a dramatic original fireplace — lots of character and real outdoor living potential. The rooms are liveable now but cosmetically dated, so this is a ready project: not a ruin, but it needs updating to become the stylish home shown in the renders.
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.
- Very attractive private courtyard is currently unfinished and needs cleaning/landscaping to reach the staged look.
- Interior is dated (old tiles, fixtures) and will need renovation/modernisation of kitchen, finishes and probably utilities.
- Only one bathroom visible in photos — layout may be tight for a 4‑bed household.
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.
