Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Asking €310,000 for 92 m² (€3,370/m²; effective ≈€3,568/m² after a modest €200/m² allowance) which is far above the Tuscany baseline of €660/m². Very close to the sea (~400 m) but the listing omits condition, year and energy class and has only 1 photo, so it's overpriced for this catalog.
More on the house and the area
A 92 m² townhouse only ~400 m from the sea with a private garden and parking sounds like a genuinely liveable coastal home. Without photos the condition is unknown, but the described layout (3 beds, 2 baths, garden/court) suggests a move-in or light-refresh property rather than a ruin.
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€6,000 – €10,000
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.
- No photos available — interior condition and finishes cannot be judged.
- Price (€310,000) is above the typical “cheap” range in the catalog; compare local market.
- Confirm exact access to the beach and utility/status details before booking a visit.
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 Apuan Alps (Alpi Apuane) rise immediately inland and are within the 15 km radius, with named summits such as Pania della Croce and Monte Forato and extensive Carrara marble quarries on their slopes. The area includes the Parco Regionale delle Alpi Apuane (regional park) and karst marble landscapes with active quarrying and related infrastructure. The Tyrrhenian coast and the Versilia beaches (Marina di Massa, Marina di Carrara, Forte dei Marmi) lie on a narrow coastal plain within reach. The adjacent city of Carrara hosts the historical marble industry and quarry transport networks. There are no significant ski lifts within 15 km; the nearest alpine-style ski areas are in the Apennines (for example Abetone), farther inland. The nearest major airport serving the area is Pisa (Galileo Galilei), about 50–60 km to the southwest. The local landform mix is steep, rocky Apuan peaks, quarry workings and a narrow coastal plain.
