See what needs doing and what each job costs
Although the €15,381 asking price is very low (€167/m² versus roughly €400/m² for comparable Sardinian homes), this property is explicitly being sold through a judicial auction. It also needs renovation and includes unauthorized works to be demolished, creating substantial legal and construction risk.
More on the house and the area
The property’s central Sorso location and 92 sqm across two residential units offer practical potential, but the images cannot be used to judge its real appearance because they are explicitly generic. It needs renovation and includes works to be demolished, so this is primarily a low-cost restoration project rather than a beautiful, ready-to-live-in home.
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€18,000 – €32,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.

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 61/100The cluster is on the limestone hills of north-west Sardinia above the Gulf of Asinara. The coast within this radius is the low shore around Platamona, and the larger marine landscape is the Gulf of Asinara with views toward the Asinara island area. The nearest town of size is Sassari, which has the province’s main services, university facilities and a substantial historic centre. Porto Torres is also nearby, with the port and the Roman archaeological area of Turris Libisonis. This part of Romangia is known for vineyards and olive groves.
