Price €80,000 + full renovation (~€700/m²) → total ≈€228,400 or ≈€1,077/m², well above the Tuscany baseline of €658/m². The house (212 m²) requires complete renovation but includes ~4,500 m² of land and several annexes; good photos (15) and close to town (1 km).
More on the house and the area
Beautiful Tuscan hill views and about 4,500 m² of land give strong rural appeal, but the main house and annexes are largely run-down with damaged interiors and roofs. This is a true renovation project — great potential and price for someone ready to restore, not a move-in-ready home.
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€42,000 – €74,000
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.

No mains drain: add €2,000–4,500 for a septic tank. Listings never say, so ask.
- Property is largely derelict and requires a full renovation (roof, floors, systems, interior finishes).
- Outbuildings and stables are in poor condition and may need demolition or extensive rebuilding.
- Site is overgrown — access, grounds clearance and utility reconnection are likely needed.
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 58/100The cluster is in the Metalliferous Hills on wooded inland hills between the Cornia and Cecina valleys. The Rimigliano and Gulf of Baratti coast is outside the immediate area, but the nearest daily-service centres are Cecina and Donoratico on the plain, with supermarkets, rail stations and the main road links along the Tyrrhenian corridor. Within the hills around Monteverdi Marittimo the landscape is mainly forest, scrub, small fields and scattered hamlets. The area is known for olive groves, woodland and the geothermal and mining country of the Colline Metallifere farther inland.
