At €59,000 for 105 sqm, the ask is €562/sqm, but with a typical renovation budget of about €700/sqm the effective cost is roughly €1,262/sqm. That is far above the local baseline of €446/sqm for similar low-priced townhouses, so despite the 1 km sea location and terrace, this looks weak on price.
More on the house and the area
The vaulted ceilings and traditional proportions give this townhouse some genuine Sicilian character, and the price per sqm is attractive for an independent home near the sea. But it is not move-in ready: interiors are tired, damp-marked and partly stripped, so this is a real renovation project rather than an easy refresh. The terrace adds usable outdoor space, though without a standout outlook.
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.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Our read of the photos, €700/m², falls in this band.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€21,000 – €37,000
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.

The area around
Location score 82/100Monte Erice rises directly above the area on the west Sicilian coast. The Tyrrhenian coast is at the foot of the mountain, with the Gulf of Trapani and the salt pans between Trapani and Paceco within the local landscape. The Monte Cofano area and the Zingaro coast are farther away and do not define the immediate 15 km setting. Trapani is the nearest town of size, with port services, a historic centre and links to the Egadi Islands. Erice is known for its walled hill town, its position over Trapani and the traditional salt-production landscape nearby.
