- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction property, which makes it unsuitable for buyers seeking a straightforward purchase despite the €39,740 asking price and strong sea proximity. It needs renovation at roughly €700/m², and the listing warns that the images are only indicative rather than real property photos.
More on the house and the area
The pictured interiors are bright and spacious, with attractive wood floors, but they are not confirmed to belong to this property. The actual home is described as a 150–187 sqm townhouse with a terrace and courtyard, yet its real condition, layout, utilities, and bathroom provision remain unclear. At this price it may offer value, but there is no reliable visual evidence of a beautiful, ready-to-live-in Italian 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€37,000 – €66,000
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.

- The listing explicitly says the photos are indicative and not of the actual property.
- Needs renovation; the facts list zero bathrooms despite a bathroom image appearing in the gallery.
- Auction purchase with condition, legal, and property-details verification required.
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 area is on the Strait of Sicily coast, with beaches and low coastal ground around Sciacca and a hilly agricultural interior of olive groves and vineyards. The Belice valley lies to the east and the lower Platani valley is within the wider surrounding area. The nearest substantial town is Sciacca itself, which has a port, a large historic centre, and a long-established spa tradition linked to thermal waters. The area is known for fishing, ceramics, and olive oil.
