What it really costs

At €525/m², the asking price is already above the local €348/m² benchmark before works. With substantial renovation estimated at about €700/m², the effective cost is roughly €1,225/m², making this a weak deal despite being a legitimate independent home.
More on the house and the area
A characterful Sardinian village house with handsome exposed-stone walls, traditional cobbled lanes, a small wrought-iron balcony, and a genuine historic atmosphere. The upper-floor living areas appear habitable but dated, while the ground-floor deposits and cellar are rough and require work, making this a renovation opportunity rather than a ready-made dream 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€15,000 – €27,000
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 sold as needing renovation, with rough storage/cellar spaces and visibly dated finishes.
- The kitchen and bathroom are not clearly shown, so their condition and usability need verification.
- Access is through narrow historic lanes, with no private outdoor space or obvious parking.
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 61/100Ortueri sits in the Mandrolisai uplands on the slopes of the Barigadu and central Sardinian hills, with oak woodland, pasture and vine country around the village. The Tirso river basin lies nearby and Lake Omodeo is within this interior area to the west. The area is known for Mandrolisai red wine and for central Sardinia’s pastoral landscape. Sorgono is the nearest small centre with everyday services, while Nuoro is the nearest larger town with a fuller range of shops and administration.
