This is explicitly an auction listing ('ASTA IMMOBILIARE'), which is a veto red flag for this catalog. Even though the asking price is €32,159 for 65 sqm (€495/sqm) near the sea, the auction status makes it a trap under the scoring rules.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable small home rather than a ruin: there is a fitted kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living space, so livability is clearly present. The setting has some rural greenery and a bit of land, but the house itself is very simple and the outdoor areas feel rough and unfinished rather than dreamy. At this price near the sea it has value appeal, but the wow factor is modest.
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€4,000 – €7,000
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.
- Basic utilitarian exterior with rough yard and improvised outbuildings
- Interiors are habitable but small and fairly plain, with little character
- Possible regularization/checks needed for the precarious animal shelters and accessory structures
- Auction sale: documentation and occupancy/legal status should be verified carefully
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 63/100The cluster is on the Gulf of Cagliari coast, with low rocky shores and beaches around Porto Columbu and the Santa Vittoria side of Sarroch. The Sulcis hills begin inland, with Mediterranean scrub and low limestone relief rather than high mountains. Nora and the lagoon area of Pula are nearby on the same stretch of coast. Cagliari is the nearest city of size, with full services, a port and airport.
