Asking €55,000 (458 €/m2) plus estimated renovation €700/m2 gives an effective cost ≈ €1,158/m2, well above the regional median of €434/m2. The listing explicitly says 'da ristrutturare', has only 2 photos and omits condition and energy data, so it looks overpriced for a full renovation.
More on the house and the area
A roomy, solid-looking three-storey townhouse in a central piazza with attractive historic character and balconies; a real low-price opportunity for someone willing to renovate. Close to the sea (~8 km) and with storage/parking, but the property needs works and installation of heating/utilities before living comfortably.
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€24,000 – €42,000
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.
- Listed as 'da ristrutturare' — will need renovation works.
- No heating system currently.
- Interior photos/condition not shown (verify floors, roof, wiring/plumbing).
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 42/100This is the plain of Sant’Eufemia at the head of the Gulf of Sant’Eufemia, with low coastal farmland and the first slopes of the Calabrian inland rising behind it. The Tyrrhenian coast is nearby. The nearest substantial town is Lamezia Terme itself, which is a service city with the main airport of Calabria, major rail links, hospitals and retail areas. The urban cap applies because the cluster is inside the built-up area of a city above 50,000 residents.
