What it really costs
Can you move in?
Move in as it is
Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
A documented renovation about 12 years ago, two bathrooms, private outdoor space and a central Floridia location support livability, with only limited near-term renovation allowance. At €100,000 (€714/m²), it is about 75% above comparable local stock at €409/m², so the price is hard to justify despite the sound condition.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuine, spacious, move-in-ready Sicilian home with 140 sqm, two levels, two bathrooms, a private courtyard, and a sunny rooftop terrace. The polished wooden beams, traditional doors, colorful courtyard, and generous furnished interiors give it real character, while the overall condition appears solid rather than project-like.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €100/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 – €8,000
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.
- Energy class G suggests higher running costs.
- The home appears well maintained, but some bathrooms and furnishings are dated.
- Outdoor space is attractive but limited to a private courtyard and rooftop terrace, with no open countryside view.
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 58/100The cluster lies on the Hyblaean plateau inland from Siracusa, in a landscape of low limestone tableland cut by dry valleys and cultivated with citrus, olives and arable fields. The Anapo and Ciane river area and the Riserva Naturale Orientata Cavagrande del Cassibile are within the wider surroundings of this part of inland Siracusa province, though not all points around Floridia sit directly inside those gorges. Siracusa is the nearest city of size and has major historic fabric including Ortigia and the archaeological park. This area is known for Hyblaean limestone countryside and for agriculture linked to the Siracusa plain, especially citrus.
