This is a 176 sqm raw attic ('sottotetto', completely unfinished) offered for €60,000, and the text does not present it as a legal dwelling; 'non mutuabile' is another serious warning. With full restoration at about €1,100/sqm, effective cost is roughly €1,441/sqm versus a weak baseline of €300/sqm, so this is not a sound livable-house deal.
More on the house and the area
Raw attic (sottotetto) space in central Cagliari, essentially an unfinished storage loft with exposed terracotta roof tiles and wood beams. Photos show clutter, junk, and bare cement floors. The exposed brick-and-beam ceiling has some rustic character but nothing striking. Balcony view is of ordinary urban rooftops. The exterior is a plain orange stucco corner building. At €341/m2 it is cheap, but it's raw, non-mortgageable, and requires full conversion. No standout wow features.
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€70,000 – €103,000
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.
Bringing a house that has stood empty back into service: new water, sewer and electricity, plus the practices. The same sum on an 80 m² house and on a 300 m² one, which is why a €40,000 house is not a €40,000 project.
