What it really costs
- Sold at judicial auction
See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction ('in asta'), which is an automatic veto for this catalog despite the low asking price. The description suggests only sufficient/habitable condition, but the auction status outweighs the apparent discount versus the €385/m² baseline.
More on the house and the area
This is a real, usable house rather than a ruin: the interiors show floors, kitchen, bathrooms and furnished rooms, with some character from the wooden-beamed living room and older details. But the overall wow is modest, because the exterior is tired and the setting looks plain, with no visible view or attractive outdoor space. At this price and size it has bargain appeal, yet it feels more practical than 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€13,000 – €22,000
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 needs noticeable maintenance and repainting
- Shared court/boundaries reduce privacy
- No real view, garden, or special setting shown
- Auction listing photos may be partly indicative
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 68/100The cluster is in the coastal plain around Marsala on the western tip of Sicily, facing the Stagnone lagoon and the island of Mozia. The coast here is low and salt-flat rather than cliffed, with the Riserva Naturale Orientata Isole dello Stagnone immediately by Marsala. Marsala is the nearest town of size and has a large historic centre, port functions, wine cellars and the archaeological museum with finds from Mozia. The area is known for salt pans, Marsala wine and Punic archaeology linked to Mozia.
