At €33,000 (€308/m²), this habitable 107 m² townhouse is attractively priced upfront, with two bathrooms, heating, a balcony and 17 photos. Allowing about €21,400 for ordinary updates brings the effective cost to roughly €508/m², above the €417/m² local comparison level, so the deal is good but not exceptional.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable 107 m² Sicilian townhouse with a spectacular open view over green, rugged hills and a strong historic-borgo atmosphere. The interiors are clean and usable, including two bathrooms and a functioning kitchen, but the house is dated rather than beautifully finished, while the exterior and access are rough.
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€7,000 – €12,000
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.
- Very narrow, steep historic-lane access with no visible car access directly to the home.
- Interiors are habitable but dated, with old kitchens, bathrooms, windows and finishes.
- Exterior façades, balconies and some ancillary spaces show significant wear and would benefit from maintenance.
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 58/100This is inland hill country on the Hyblaean plateau, with a mosaic of cereal fields, pasture and valleys cut into the limestone tableland. The area is associated with the upper Dirillo valley and with the rural landscapes of south-eastern Sicily rather than with a single major natural landmark. Caltagirone is the nearest town of size; it has a substantial historic centre, rail links and services, and its historic centre is on the UNESCO list within the Late Baroque Towns of the Val di Noto. Vizzini is known above all for its connection with Giovanni Verga and for the agricultural interior of the Hyblaean area.
