Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €24,900 (€277/m²), the house is attractively priced before works, but it is explicitly in need of renovation; estimated total cost brings it to about €977/m² versus a €344/m² local benchmark. Its historic-center location and 15 photos are positives, but the renovation burden makes this weak value overall.
More on the house and the area
A genuinely usable, furnished village house with a working kitchen, bathroom, fireplace, multiple bedrooms, bright interiors, and a balcony in Aritzo’s attractive historic center. The exterior is weathered and the home likely needs updating, but it is far from a ruin and the €24,900 price makes the traditional Sardinian setting especially compelling.
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.
- The listing says it needs renovation, despite the furnished, usable interiors; budget for repairs and modernization.
- Only one small bathroom is shown, with no garden or private parking.
- No panoramic view is evident from the photos; the appeal is village life and mountain-town atmosphere.
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 72/100The cluster is in the Gennargentu mountains. The Flumendosa basin and the mountain valleys around Aritzo shape the area, with chestnut woods and upland pasture typical of this part of Barbagia. The Parco Nazionale del Golfo di Orosei e del Gennargentu was planned here but never fully established as a national park; the area instead falls within the Gennargentu massifs and nearby protected mountain zones of central Sardinia. The nearest ski lifts are at Bruncu Spina on the Gennargentu, roughly half an hour to three quarters of an hour by road depending on conditions. The nearest town of some size is Sorgono, while Nuoro is the main larger centre for services farther away. Aritzo is known in Sardinia for mountain chestnuts and for being one of the historic upland settlements of the island’s interior.
