What it really costs
See what needs doing and what each job costs
At €90,000 for 219 sqm, the ask is €411/sqm; assuming habitable condition from the description, estimated effective cost is about €611/sqm after ~€200/sqm light renovation. The local baseline (€300/sqm) is weak because, so this looks only fair rather than a clear bargain despite the historic-center setting and large size.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house rather than a project: spacious, furnished, with working-looking kitchens/fireplaces, bathrooms, and a big terrace. The wow comes from the mountain views, the grape-covered courtyard, and the sheer amount of space for the price, not from refined architecture or stylish interiors. It feels livable now but would benefit from modernization to become truly dreamy.
Decoration, tired fittings, a bathroom or a kitchen. The house is liveable as it stands.
Our read of the photos is €200/m². There is no published price band below €350/m², so the range is that figure widened by the spread of the lightest band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€15,000 – €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.
- Exterior is plain and not especially photogenic.
- Interiors are habitable but dated and need cosmetic updating.
- Large roof terrace looks neglected and may need waterproofing/maintenance.
- Historic-centre setting appears close to neighboring buildings and parked cars, so privacy is limited.
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

The nearest coast is the Costa Verde, with the long dune-backed beach system of Piscinas and the shoreline around Scivu within about 15 km. Monte Arcuentu and the Arcuentu e Rio Piscinas protected area are nearby, and the old mining landscape around Ingurtosu and Montevecchio is part of the Geominerario Storico e Ambientale della Sardegna. The nearest town of size is Guspini, which has the usual services for this part of inland southwest Sardinia. The area is known for coastal dunes, mining remains, and sheep farming.
