See what needs doing and what each job costs
This is a judicial auction for a rural/agricultural compound, and the text states it lacks fine lavori and agibilità/abitabilità, with a deposito used as a home and uncertified systems. At €445/m² it looks cheap, but the legal/habitability issues and very poor condition veto it as a livable house deal.
More on the house and the area
The hillside setting near Taormina has genuine open valley/sea-distance outlooks and useful outdoor space, which gives it some dream value. But the house is only partly convincing as a home: some interiors look usable, while the wider compound is cluttered, improvised and legally/technically unresolved. This feels more like a rehabilitation project with lifestyle potential than a ready beautiful home.
All the services redone, bathrooms, kitchen, windows. The structure is left alone.
Turnkey, facade and insulation included.
Our read of the photos, €1,100/m², falls in this band.
Materials only, work you may do yourself€57,000 – €85,000
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.
- General maintenance is described as very poor
- No habitability/agibility and works were not formally completed
- Water, electrical and gas systems lack certification and likely need overhaul
- Rural hillside setting with limited parking/access convenience
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.
