At €18,000, the estimated renovation cost is about €132,000, bringing the effective cost to roughly €1,250/m² versus €355/m² for comparable local homes. The historic-center location and courtyard add some appeal, but this is explicitly a complete ruin requiring major reconstruction.
More on the house and the area
The old Sardinian stone walls, traditional tiled roof, and private courtyard give this property genuine historic character and restoration potential. However, it is currently a ruin rather than a usable home, with collapsed sections, debris, and no move-in-ready interior. At €18,000 it is an intriguing bargain project, but not yet a dream home to live in.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€48,000 – €70,000
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.
- Advertised explicitly as a ruin requiring complete renovation.
- Several interior roofs and structures appear collapsed or severely deteriorated.
- No livable kitchen, bathroom, finished floors, or usable interior is shown; renovation scope and approvals need verification.
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 49/100The area is the Trexenta, a low hilly agricultural zone of central-southern Sardinia with fields, olive groves and small villages. The Flumendosa river system lies to the east of this part of the province, but around Senorbì the immediate landscape is mainly inland farmland rather than a marked river or mountain setting. Cagliari is the nearest city of size and has the main services, port and airport for the area. The area is known for cereal farming, vines and olive oil.
