Condition not stated in the listingSee what needs doing and what each job costs
At €688/m², estimated effective cost is about €888/m² after modest habitable-home upkeep, well above the €372/m² local baseline. The 4 km sea access, 1,000 m² garden and 29 m² garage add value, but the listing does not state the condition and the factual room count conflicts with the detailed description.
More on the house and the area
This is a genuinely livable, generously sized villa with a fitted kitchen, multiple rooms, heating, solid floors and a particularly attractive mountain/valley outlook from the windows. The stone-clad stove surround, terracotta flooring and extensive woodwork add character, while the €95,000 price is compelling for the size and reported land. It is more traditional and dated than stylish, but feels like a real home rather than a renovation project.
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€9,000 – €15,000
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.
- Interiors are fully usable but dated in style, with substantial built-in wood furniture and older finishes.
- Only one bathroom is listed for a 138 sqm home.
- The garden, olive grove, parking and exterior condition are not clearly shown in the gallery.
- Energy class G may mean higher running costs.
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 68/100The cluster is in the Nebrodi foothills above the Tyrrhenian coast. The Tyrrhenian Sea is close, with the coast around Capo d'Orlando and Brolo within the local landscape. The Nebrodi Mountains rise inland, and the Parco dei Nebrodi begins a short distance to the south in the interior. Capo d'Orlando is the nearest town of size, with a marina, beaches, shops and rail connections on the Palermo–Messina line. This stretch of north-eastern Sicily is known for olive groves, hazelnuts and hill villages between the sea and the Nebrodi.
