This is a judicial-auction listing for a 300 m² rural rudere in Lajatico offered at €56,250 (€188/m²). The description states it is an ex fabbricato rurale (ruin) and not habitable; estimated full restoration ~€1,100/m², so this is an auction ruin and not a standard livable sale.
More on the house and the area
Beautiful Tuscan setting with rolling hills and farmland — the views and land are the main asset. The building itself is a ruin (ex-fabbricato rurale) sold at auction, so this is a restoration project rather than a move-in home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€119,000 – €176,000
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 in the description as a 'rudere' (derelict) — the building is uninhabitable and requires full reconstruction
- Property is being sold at auction (tribunale) — purchase involves legal complexity and checks for liens/charges
- The ad states the images are indicative/generic and do not represent the real photos of this specific property
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 61/100This is the hilly Valdera countryside, with cultivated ridges, small woods, ravines and scattered farmhouses between the lower Arno plain and the interior hills. The Era river runs through this part of the province. Volterra is the nearest major historic hill town in the wider area and Pisa is the nearest city of size, with full services and rail connections. Peccioli is known for its hilltop historic centre and for contemporary art installations placed in the surrounding countryside.
