What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €60,000 for 70 sqm, the ask is €857/sqm versus a low-stock baseline of €446/sqm in Sicilia townhouses. With no clear habitability details and no baths stated, I assume renovation at about €700/sqm, bringing the effective cost to roughly €1,557/sqm, so this looks materially above the baseline rather than a bargain.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable little town house in Enna’s old lanes, with a slightly atmospheric historic setting outside. Inside it looks functional rather than beautiful: basic finishes, dated rooms, and some visible moisture issues, but not a shell. At this price it has practical live-in potential after refreshment, though it is not a dream-home wow property.
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€14,000 – €25,000
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 dated and need cosmetic updating.
- Some signs of damp/staining are visible, especially in the small WC.
- Very narrow internal layout and steep stairs may limit comfort.
- No bathroom count is listed correctly in the facts, so layout/details should be checked.
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 72/100The cluster is in the inland Sicilian uplands around Enna, with broad cultivated hills and the higher ground of central Sicily. Lake Pergusa lies just south of Enna, with the Pergusa nature reserve around it. Enna sits on a high ridge and has a substantial historic centre with the Lombardy Castle and the cathedral. Piazza Armerina is nearby and contains the UNESCO-listed Villa Romana del Casale. This part of the province is known for grain country, inland hill landscapes and archaeological sites.
