What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
Price €100,000 (877 €/m2) but described as "da ristrutturare" so I estimate ~€700/m2 renovation (~€79,800), giving an effective ~€179,800 or ~1,576 €/m2 versus the regional median ~€667/m2. Effective cost well above the local median, so this looks overpriced as a renovation project.
More on the house and the area
Lovely early‑20th‑century terratetto with original beams, high ceilings, traditional floors and a sunny terrace with classic Tuscan valley views — many rooms look liveable straightaway. However parts of the house (cellar/secondary rooms and the exterior stair/terrace) need structural/cosmetic renovation and the layout will need updating to modern standards.
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€22,000 – €40,000
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.
- Described as 'da ristrutturare' — some rooms (cellar/wing) are raw and need work
- Only one bathroom shown; modernization likely required
- Exterior stairs/terrace and some external finishes need repair
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 74/100The Apuan Alps rise immediately inland, with Monte Prana and the southern Apuan ridges within the local horizon and the higher marble mountains around Stazzema and Seravezza close by. The Camaiore area sits on the small coastal plain of Versilia, with the Tyrrhenian coast at Lido di Camaiore and Viareggio nearby. The Parco naturale regionale delle Alpi Apuane begins a short distance inland and covers much of the mountain area behind the town. The nearest ski lifts are the small Abetone area, roughly 1 hour 30 minutes by road, and they are outside the local radius. Lucca is the nearest city of size, with intact Renaissance walls and a substantial historic centre; Viareggio is the nearest larger coastal town, with port and services. The area is known for the contrast between the Versilia plain, beach resorts, olive hills and the marble mountains behind.
