At €651/m², this apartment is about 21% above the local €538/m² benchmark before accounting for an estimated €200/m² of work, and the listing does not state its condition. The 146 m² size, private garden, terraces and location roughly 4 km from the sea add appeal, but the unknown renovation needs limit the value.
More on the house and the area
This is a spacious, real home in a characterful Sardinian town, with original patterned floors, traditional doors and a pleasant hillside view from the rear terrace. It appears habitable rather than a renovation shell, but the interiors are dated and would benefit from cosmetic modernization; the unshown kitchen, garden and terraces need verification.
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€10,000 – €16,000
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 interior is usable but distinctly dated, with long corridors and older finishes throughout.
- A kitchen is not clearly shown in the gallery, so immediate move-in functionality is uncertain.
- The advertised private garden and terraces are not convincingly shown in the photos.
- The property is in a dense town-center setting with street parking rather than a private driveway.
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 nearest town of size is Sassari, which has the province’s main services, university facilities and a substantial historic centre. Porto Torres is also nearby, with the port and the Roman archaeological area of Turris Libisonis. This part of Romangia is known for vineyards and olive groves.
