Estimated renovation ~€36k (€200/m²) makes the effective price ~€386k or €2,144/m², about 2.6× the regional median of €824/m²; the house was last renovated in the mid‑1980s and has 31 photos, but the asking price is well above typical local comparables.
More on the house and the area
Charming stone country house with multiple sun-and-shade terraces, built-in oven and a mature, private garden overlooking rolling hills and mountains — extremely photogenic outside. Interiors are spacious, well-kept and clearly lived-in (move-in ready) though styled in an older renovation, making this a very attractive, usable Tuscan home.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Interior decor dated (renovated in the 1980s) — cosmetic updating likely
- Terraced/hilly garden with steps — may be awkward for limited mobility
- No immediate sea view (sea ~10 km away)
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 73/100The Apuan Alps rise just east of Camaiore, with short drives up the valley toward places such as Casoli, Metato and the mountain hamlets below Monte Matanna and Monte Prana. The Camaiore area is crossed by the Camaiore valley and sits a few kilometres inland from the Versilia coast. The Parco Regionale delle Alpi Apuane begins within this inland mountain belt. The nearest town of size is Viareggio on the coast, while Lucca is the nearest historic city with full services and a walled centre. Pietrasanta, a few kilometres north, is known for its art foundries and sculpture workshops. This part of Versilia is known for olive terraces on the lower slopes, marble mountains inland, and the mix of hill villages, coast and Apuan foothills in a small area.
