In the listingNeeds renovationThe photographs say otherwise, and we go by the photographs.
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Asking €65,000 plus estimated €700/m² renovation (€35,000) gives an effective price of ≈€100,000 or €2,000/m² versus the regional baseline of €706/m² — clearly well above market. The ad states 'Needs renovation' but the implied €/m² is high for that condition, so the price looks inconsistent with the state.
More on the house and the area
Compact two-level town apartment with a photogenic spiral stair and a small terrace with rooftop/centre views of Altamura. Structurally usable and roofed but dated (bathroom tiles, plaster issues) — liveable now with modest updates to make it fully comfortable.
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€10,000 – €18,000
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.

- Needs cosmetic renovation and bathroom updating; visible plaster/damp stains.
- Small footprint (50 sqm) and narrow spiral stairs limit accessibility.

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 55/100The cluster is in the built-up area of Altamura, so the resident setting is urban rather than open countryside. The Murge plateau surrounds the town, with limestone upland, fields and karst terrain typical of the Alta Murgia. Alta Murgia National Park lies immediately around Altamura and includes steppe-like pasture, sinkholes and ravines. Gravina in Puglia is nearby and has a historic centre on the edge of a ravine. Altamura is known for its stone-built old centre and for Pane di Altamura PDO.
