Although advertised at €16,590 (€104/m²), this is a judicial auction, so it is not a straightforward purchase for a foreign buyer. The stated 160 m² is only an estimate, the photos are explicitly non-authentic, and the listing does not provide reliable property documentation.
More on the house and the area
The pictured interiors are bright, renovated, and genuinely livable, with attractive wood flooring, a modern kitchen, and finished bathrooms. However, they cannot be credited as evidence of this Sardinian townhouse, whose real condition and appearance remain unknown; the low price is the main appeal rather than proven beauty.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/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€11,000 – €18,000
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 explicitly states that the photos are illustrative and are not photographs of the actual property.
- The advertised property is in Samatzai, Sardinia, but the images appear to show a very different urban apartment/building, likely outside Italy.
- The auction process, uncertain 160 sqm measurement, and missing bathroom details require careful verification before bidding.
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 39/100The area is the Campidano plain, with low cultivated ground and scattered hills rather than a distinct mountain setting. The Flumini Mannu river runs through this part of southern Sardinia. Cagliari is the nearest city of size, with a port, airport, university and full services. This part of southern Sardinia is known for agriculture on the plain and for Nuragic archaeological sites in the wider Trexenta and Campidano area.
