What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €99,000 (€1,286/m²), this townhouse is priced far above the local €440/m² reference; allowing roughly €15,400 for unspecified work raises the effective cost to about €1,486/m². Its historic-center position in Acitrezza and proximity to the sea add appeal, but the listing does not state the condition, construction year, or energy performance.
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€5,000 – €9,000
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.
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 86/100The Ionian coast is on the doorstep, with the basalt sea stack of the Isole Ciclopi at Aci Trezza and the Norman castle on a lava cliff at Aci Castello. Mount Etna rises inland and dominates the local horizon; the lower slopes begin within this radius. The Riviera dei Ciclopi protected marine area covers the coastal waters here. Catania is immediately to the south, with full city services, rail links and the airport. The area is known for volcanic coastal scenery created by Etna’s lava reaching the sea and for the Cyclops myth linked to the sea stacks.
