This is a judicial auction listing (Tribunale di Bari) — auction purchases carry legal/procedural risk. Price €33,750 plus estimated renovation €200/m² (115 m² → €23,000) → total ≈€56,750 (≈€494/m²) vs regional baseline €706/m²; images are noted as not the real photos.
More on the house and the area
Bright, modern-looking interiors and finished bathrooms suggest a move-in or lightly refreshed home. The building exterior and courtyard look run-down and the setting is urban rather than scenic, so verify the real photos and condition before committing.
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€8,000 – €13,000
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.
- Listing says photos are indicative — these images may not be of the actual unit
- Exterior façade in photos shows peeling plaster and likely needs repairs
- Urban setting with no sea/landscape views shown
- Few rooms/kitchen not pictured — confirm exact layout, bathrooms and utilities before bidding
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 62/100The area sits on the Murge plateau, with a dry karst landscape of open fields, vineyards, olive groves and patches of oak woodland. Alta Murgia National Park begins within roughly this radius to the northwest, with limestone uplands, sinkholes and steppe-like pasture. Gioia del Colle has a substantial historic centre and a Norman-Swabian castle. Acquaviva delle Fonti is the nearest larger town in the area, with services and a built historic core. This part of inland Bari is known for wine production, especially Primitivo di Gioia del Colle, and for dairy farming on the plateau.
