What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At 778 EUR/m2 this is 73% above the regional baseline of 450 EUR/m2, a weak signal for value. The property is explicitly 'da ultimare' (to be completed), meaning it is not yet habitable and needs finishing work. Positives: beach frazione ~300m from sea/piazza, garage tag, decent room count (5 rooms, matrimonial + 2 small bedrooms), and 19 photos. Negatives: incomplete build, no condition/year/energy data, 0 beds listed, and the premium over local median is hard to justify given completion costs (~400 EUR/m2 to finish). Fresh listing (6 days) so no staleness. Net: pay-a-premium for a near-sea unfinished house—negotiable but not a bargain at asking.
More on the house and the area
Unfinished ground-floor townhouse in a seaside village ~300m from beach. Photos show plain whitewashed interiors, weathered red doors, exposed concrete work-in-progress spaces, and a small utilitarian courtyard. Nothing visually striking—no view, no historic charm, no standout architecture. The arched facade is the only mild feature. Near-sea location is a modest plus but not reflected in any view. Ordinary fixer-upper with no wow appeal.
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.
Our read of the photos, €400/m², falls in this band.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€11,000 – €18,000
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.
- Property is unfinished ('da ultimare') and needs full renovation
- Interiors are bare and worn with damaged shutters/doors
- No sea view despite proximity
- Cramped bedrooms per description
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 78/100The cluster is on the south-west Sicilian coast by the Mediterranean. The coast here includes long sandy stretches and the mouth area of the Belice, with the Riserva naturale orientata Foce del fiume Belice e dune limitrofe within the local area. Marinella di Selinunte and the archaeological park of Selinunte are nearby on the same coastal strip. Mazara del Vallo is the nearest larger town, with a fishing port and everyday services. This part of the Belice plain is known for vineyards, olive groves and coastal farming.
