The 50 m² home is entirely to renovate: at roughly €1,100/m², the effective cost is about €113,000, or €2,260/m² before assigning value to the 30 m² garage and 70 m² terrace. That is far above the €408/m² local benchmark, so the extras do not make this a strong bargain.
More on the house and the area
The 70 sqm rooftop terrace could become a valuable outdoor space, and the exposed old masonry adds some character. However, the actual property is a substantial renovation project: the interiors and garage are unfinished and not currently presented as a livable home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€20,000 – €29,000
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.
- The property is explicitly entirely to be renovated; the real photos show raw, unfinished interiors and a deteriorated outbuilding/garage.
- The attractive furnished terrace image is AI-generated and does not represent the current condition.
- No bathroom, kitchen, finished living spaces, or usable bedroom are shown in the real photos.
- The terrace is large but surrounded by dense urban buildings, with no notable 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 54/100Mount Etna rises immediately to the north-west and is the dominant landscape feature of this area. The Simeto plain lies to the south and west, with the Simeto river crossing the wider area. The cluster sits in the built-up belt on the inland side of Catania, with the city of Catania close by for a full range of services, rail links and the airport. The lower slopes of Etna with vineyards, lava terrain and towns such as Belpasso and Nicolosi begin within a short drive. The nearest ski lifts are on Etna around Piano Provenzana or Rifugio Sapienza, roughly 45-60 minutes by road depending on conditions. Etna is a UNESCO World Heritage site and the Etna Regional Park covers the mountain above the urban belt. The area is known for volcanic landscapes and agriculture linked to Etna and the plain.
