This is explicitly an auction listing ("ASTA IMMOBILIARE"), which is a veto red flag for this catalog. It is also described as occupied ("occupato"), adding execution/availability risk, so despite 516 €/m² the listing is not a normal retail deal.
More on the house and the area
There is some rustic appeal in the stone outbuilding with exposed masonry and timber roof, and the rural setting gives it a bit of atmosphere. But the main dwelling looks plain and tired rather than dreamlike, while much of the photographed space is farm or processing infrastructure, not attractive residential living space. Overall this feels more like a practical rural project than a beautiful cheap Italian home to move into.
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€12,000 – €20,000
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.
- Auction sale and property appears occupied
- Main house looks basic and needs significant refresh
- Several outbuildings are agricultural/utility spaces rather than ready living area
- No bathroom shown despite listing details
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 58/100The cluster is on the basalt plateau of the Marghine, with low mountains and open grazing land around Macomer. The Tirso valley lies nearby and the Nuraghe Santa Barbara stands just outside the town. Within about 15 km are the volcanic reliefs around Borore and Dualchi and the Nuragic complex of Tamuli at Macomer. Bosa is the nearest substantial historic town on the west side of the area, with services and a river port on the Temo, but it is beyond the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for sheep farming, trachyte and basalt landscapes, and a high density of prehistoric Nuragic sites.
